Trump associates ordered to testify in Jan. 6 investigation.
TL;DR
A federal judge rejected Donald Trump's claim of executive privilege and ordered his former chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and other top aides to testify before a grand jury investigating Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results and his handling of classified materials after leaving office. Meadows was subpoenaed by special counsel Jack Smith in January. The ruling paves the way for Meadows' testimony, along with other former aides, including John Ratcliffe, Robert O’Brien, Stephen Miller, and Dan Scavino. Trump is likely to appeal the ruling.
