McEnany, Miller subpoenaed over Jan. 6

The House Select Committee investigating the January 6th Capitol riots has sent out a fresh batch of subpoenas, highlighted by former Trump White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany and Trump aide Stephen Miller.

In addition to McEnany and Miller, the committee also sent out subpoenas for lesser known Trump world figures Johnny McEntee, Ben Williamson, Keith Kellogg, Nick Luna, Christopher Liddell, Molly Michael, Cassidy Hutchinson, and Kenneth Klukowski.

As Politico's Kyle Cheney writes, Johnny McEntee appears to be a key figure among those subpoenaed, as he led a Trump-approved effort to purge the administration of officials who were deemed insufficiently loyal.

However, just because these witnesses have been subpoenaed, there is no guarantee that they will testify.

Trump ally Steve Bannon has openly defied the committee's subpoena request and has so far faced no criminal charges despite the fact that the House of Representatives sent a criminal referral to the Department of Justice against him.
