Former President Trump has responded to the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol. The 14-page letter covers a variety of topics but does not directly address whether Trump would testify under subpoena in front of the committee.
Trump posted the letter to committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss. It comes one day after the panel voted to subpoena the ex-president over his role in the Capitol riots.

Heading the letter with the words “Peacefully and Patriotically,” Trump said the “this memo is being written to express our anger, disappointment, and complaint that with all of the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on what many consider to be a Charade and Witch Hunt, and despite strong and powerful requests, you have not spent even a short moment on examining the massive Election Fraud that took place during the 2020 Presidential Election, and have targeted only those who were, as concerned American Citizens, protesting the Fraud itself. Those who committed the Fraud, thereby having created the Crime of the Century, go unblemished and untouched, but those who fought the Crime have suffered a fate that was unthinkable just a short time ago.
“You have not gone after the people that created the Fraud, but rather great American Patriots who questioned it, as is their Constitutional right. These people have had their lives ruined as your Committee sits back and basks in the glow. The people of this Country will not stand for unequal justice under the law, or Liberty and Justice for some. Election Day is coming. We demand answers on the Crime of the Century,” Trump concluded.
