WASHINGTON: A current spokesman for former US President Donald Trump on Friday said in a court filing that he has cooperated extensively with the congressional committee investigating the deadly Jan 6 attack on the US Capitol.

Budowich, at a recent deposition, answered questions about the financing and planning of a speech by Trump to supporters near the White House on Jan 6 that preceded the violence at the Capitol that day. "The subpoena seeks personal financial material that is irrelevant to any conceivable legislation and not pertinent to any purported purpose of the Select Committee," Budowich said in the lawsuit.Budowich's lawsuit is the latest in a flood of litigation by targets of the committee seeking to prevent it from enforcing its subpoenas for information, but it is the first lawsuit to focus on a subpoena for financial records.
