House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy and four other GOP lawmakers allied with former President Donald Trump were subpoenaed by the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, the panel said Thursday.
The move marked the first time that the bipartisan investigation has issued subpoenas to sitting members of Congress. The dramatic step came less than a month before that House committee planned to kick off a series of public hearings.
Along with McCarthy, the other Republican House members whose testimony is being sought under subpoena are Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio, Andy Biggs of Arizona, Mo Brooks of Alabama and Pennsylvania's Scott Perry.
All five Republicans had previously refused the panel's requests to voluntarily cooperate with the investigation.

Give McCarthy a small taste of what innocent Americans are feeling.
Is this STILL going on? Geesh...give it up already.
WOW! This is certainly news to me. I never knew McCarthy was allied with Trump. I thought the he was too busy playing with his butt buddy Frank Luntz to actually do anything useful for Trump or MAGA.
Why are they even responding to subpoenas from an committee that is not legit?
The RAT Nazis have turned every part of our so called government into a political weapon to use against normal Americans. Los Estados Unidos has turned into a third world disgrace. I’m ashamed of my country.
It goes public in June.
democrats giving a rino cover
Seems like they sort of painted themselves in the corner by pretending it was legitimate all along now they’re caught in a trap that they made themselves
Those Kangaroos actually look more competent than the people we have representing us.
“... the bipartisan investigation ...”
No, it’s not a bipartisan investigation. It’s a leftist witch hunt.
Time for the GOPers to Cowboy up and tell the extremely far, far left Snowflakes, Marshmallows and Cupcakes just what to do with their so called subpoenas. They need to pretend they work for the Dutton Ranch and Beth is their boss.
I’d just refuse to tell them anything.
Since when is Kevin McCarthy allied with President Trump?
This is another fishing expedition. Such fishing expeditions have a propagation faster than the fish.
bipartisan?
Stopped reading after that.
If the Republicans get control they need to have hearings and start stripping these traitors of their committee assignments at a minimum.
Schiff needs to be in jail for his role in the Trump impeachment. Fartswell slept with a foreign agent.
Same here. Take the fifth.
So the are going to subpoena all the RINO’s, AKA Assistant Democrats.
“Seems like they sort of painted themselves in the corner by pretending it was legitimate all along now they’re caught in a trap that they made themselves”
I think you are right. They should have never have dealt with this as it is an illegitiment “investigation” by people who don’t have the authority to do so. This self-selected group of agenda driven poseurs should not be given recognition.
