The House committee is investigating the origins of the deadly riot that took place on January 6.
CNBC reported last month that Lindell has spent $25 million to push false claims of election fraud.
The January 6th committee subpoenaed my phone records, but I filed a complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief against them, I told CNBC in a text message on Wednesday.
Hundreds of Trump supporters went to the Capitol to show their support for the president. President Trump urged the crowd to march to Capitol Hill after he spoke at the rally.
In a phone interview with CNBC, he said he filed a legal complaint in federal court in Minneapolis. He said that he was told by the committee that they wanted his phone records from November through January.
The representative for the House committee was not available for comment. A request for comment was not returned.
The legal system is being used to block the release of his phone records. The committee subpoenaed Flynn's records after he was pardoned by the then-commander-in-chief. Sebastian Gorka also filed a lawsuit.
Trump has continued to push the idea that there was fraud that swayed the election to Biden. At his rally in front of the White House, Trump made the same false claims about the election. Congress was trying to certify Biden's electoral college victories when his supporters marched on the Capitol.
There was no widespread voter fraud, according to multiple federal and state officials.
He was said to be at pro-Trump events in the days leading up to the insurrection, though he has denied any involvement.
Several people claim that the Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C. was where Lindell met with other Trump allies.
He told CNBC that he wasn't at that meeting. He said he stayed at the hotel before going to the gathering.
Daniel Beck, the CEO of Idaho-based Txtwire, described a gathering on a Facebook post published the day before the riot.
Fourteen of us spent the evening with Donald Trump Jr. We talked about the elections, illegal votes, court cases, and what to expect on the hill tomorrow. The post says that Trump will retain the presidency.
The Republican candidate for governor of Nebraska placed Lindell with the same group at the Trump hotel.
The attack on the Capitol led to the departure of Lindell from the White House. The papers were partially read.
He was involved with rallies organized by Women for American First, a pro-Trump nonprofit group who helped put together the rally where the riot occurred at the Capitol.
MyPillow paid $100,000 to the organization for a sponsorship ad on the group's bus, which traveled to various pro-Trump rallies across the country from November 2020 until December 2020. The MyPillow sign is on the side of the Women for America First bus. The group later organized a caravan to Washington.
Cynthia Chafian, who submitted the first permit application on behalf of Women for America First, is one of the people subpoenaed by the committee.
In December, the bus tour was called "March for Trump." Many of the speakers at the stops made false claims about the election, such as that the vote was stolen and that the election was an act of treason.
After the election, he spoke to Sidney Powell, one of Trump's legal advisors.
Sidney Powell told me that the real lawsuits are in the Supreme Court, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona and Georgia. The stuff that Texas had was not what we were working on.
The voting machine company filed a lawsuit against the man, accusing him of pushing false conspiracy theories about the 2020 election because the lie sells pillows. MyPillow filed a countersuit against the company.
