Donald Trump's lawyers described the subpoena as 'invalid, unlawful and unenforceable', arguing the former president still enjoys executive privilege
Former President Donald Trump filed a lawsuit on Friday challenging a subpoena from the House committee investigating the 2021 attack on the US Capitol, saying he has"absolute immunity" and will not testify next week.
The stakes are high - and the clock ticking - for both the congressional committee and 76-year-old Trump, who is expected to announce on Tuesday that he will run again for president in 2024. But two dozen seats in the 435-member House of Representatives have still not been decided with vote counting under way.
