January 6th Committee Waves the White Flag on Donald Trump Testimony

The January 6th Committee has officially given up on trying to secure direct testimony from Donald Trump. Harmeet Dhillon, who is running for RNC chair against Ronna McDaniel and whose law firm represented Trump on the matter, announced on Wednesday that the subpoena of the former president had been officially withdrawn.
The letter was signed by Rep. Bennie Thompson, who chairs the soon-to-be shuttered committee. In it, he cites the completion of the committee’s work as the reason for withdrawing the subpoena, though that ignores the fact that they didn’t win in court.
2/in court, given precedent & refusal of prior presidents to testify in Congress.J6 committee wasted millions for a purely political witch-hunt, total abuse of process & power serving no legitimate legislative purpose. Kudos to my outstanding @dhillonlaw colleagues for the win!

I got a base hit in predicting how this would play out. As I said in my original write-up at the time the subpoena was issued, the game here was always to run out the clock. Dhillon had the legal argument to keep things tied up for longer than the committee could string things along. With the GOP taking over the House in January, any subpoena would have been withdrawn anyway. Thompson is just getting ahead of that to avoid further embarrassment.
Call it “losing on your own terms,” I suppose.
