A key House committee has postponed multiple scheduled witness interviews about Donald Trump’s final days in office, handing them off to the select panel investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack
.
The movement of those interviews with former Justice Department aides marks an abrupt change in House Democrats’ investigations of the end of Trump’s presidency. That shift underscores the growing importance of the select committee’s work as it readies its next steps with a political spotlight on Chair Bennie Thompson and the panel’s two anti-Trump Republicans, Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.
A third top Trump-era DOJ official — Rosen’s former senior counsel Patrick Hovakimian — answered questions in a closed-door interview with the Oversight panel earlier this week, making the current shift more striking. The Oversight committee alsowrote announcing that he and Donoghue had resigned because Trump fired Rosen. Trump didn’t fire Rosen, though, and Hovakimian never sent out the email.
Pelosi's statement further iterated Maloney's responsibilities beyond oversight of the waning days of the Trump presidency, calling her “a champion in the fight to crush the virus and expose waste, fraud and abuse among many other priorities."
