House select committee may subpoena Ivanka Trump | First Thing

Move would mark a dramatic escalation in the Capitol attack inquiry. Plus, the tech billionaires trying to reverse ageing

Good morning.

The House select committee investigating the Capitol attack is considering subpoenaing Ivanka Trump after she appeared to refuse a request for voluntary cooperation, according to a source close to the matter.

Is the panel likely to do it? The fact that committee members are discussing a subpoena suggests they believe it may be required to get her to appear at a deposition.

When could it happen? The panel is not expected to take the step just yet - they want to give Trump a reasonable period of time to decide to engage voluntarily.

Was racism considered in the state trial? No - prosecutors sought only to prove the men were responsible for Arbery's death, regardless of motive.

What does the defence say? They insist the deadly pursuit of Arbery was motivated by a genuine, though erroneous, suspicion that Arbery had committed crimes.
