President Donald Trump will be in Washington, DC, in 2021.
According to ABC News, several individuals have been subpoenaed by the grand jury.
According to ABC, the subpoenas have sought information about the formation of the political action committee.
According to disclosures made to the Federal Elections Commission and published by Open Secrets, Trump's Save America PAC has raised $103 million since it was formed in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
The House January 6 Committee has accused Trump of asking donors to contribute to a fake Election Defense Fund that was supposed to finance his efforts to overturn the election.
Save America, a group linked to a former Chief of Staff and Donald Trump Jr.'s girlfriend, received a $1 million donation from the Trump family's political action committee.
Requests for comment from the Justice Department and Trump's office have not been answered.
There would have been no fight to defend the election and no clear path to continue to raise millions of dollars if litigation had stopped on December 14, according to Rep. Lofgren.
The January 6 attack and the post- election period are both being investigated by the Justice Department. The probe has already resulted in more than 900 people being charged for participating in the January 6 attack, but DOJ investigators have expanded their inquiry to include the efforts by Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election. The "fake electors" plot in which Republican officials in battleground states submitted false slates of electors to Congress claiming Trump won, as well as former DOJ official Jeffrey Clark's effort to stop Georgia from certifying President Joe Biden's win, are being investigated by federal prosecutors. The investigators are asking witnesses about conversations they had with the ex-president, according to multiple reports. Former White House counsel Pat Cipollone and deputy Patrick Philbin have testified to the grand jury as part of the investigation.
A federal investigation into his handling of White House documents is one of several legal issues the ex-president is currently facing. According to the New York Times, a federal grand jury is looking into the merger of Trump Media and Technology Group and Digital World Acquisition.
Sources tell ABC News that a federal grand jury is investigating the formation of the Trump political action committee.
The panel said the Trump campaign lied to donors.
In January, a lawmaker claims that Trump's family benefited from voter finance fraud.
After losing the election, Trump moved more than one million dollars from his political groups to his private business.
The Trump family's new political committees can't do everything.
