'Stop the Steal' organizer says he received a grand jury subpoena for Jan. 6 probe

Alexander's confirmation of a grand jury subpoena is the first public acknowledgement that the Justice Department's probe of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol has expanded to include organizers of the events that preceded the attack. The issuance of a grand jury subpoena suggests that crimes may have been committed.

Alexander testified to the select committee about his contacts with Republican members of Congress. The New York Times reported his cooperation with the Justice Department.

Alexander said in a video that he worked with GOP congressmen to try to get Congress to overturn the election results.

Alexander said in the video that they four schemed up to put maximum pressure on Congress.

There was no substantive relationship between Alexander and the two men. Gosar didn't address their contacts.

Alexander is fighting a subpoena for his phone records.

Alexander revealed in his lawsuit that he had contact with the fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. on the morning of January 6.

Alexander's lawyers revealed in the filing that Ms. Guilfoyle thanked Mr. Alexander for being a leader on voting rights. The Select Committee seemed satisfied with Alexander's explanation.

Guilfoyle is still talking to the committee.

Alexander said in his statement that he did not coordinate with the Proud Boys and that his contact with the Oath Keepers was limited to accepting an offer for them to act as ushers at an event that never took place. The Oath Keepers are accused of being involved in a conspiracy to break into the Capitol.

I did not finance the equipment. I never talked to the White House about security groups. Alexander said that the militia working security at the Ellipse belonged to Women for America First. I was offered to act as an escort for the Area 8 event, but it was lost in the chaos. I was not in contact with any of the groups while I was near the Capitol. I'm not willing to presume anyone's guilt.

Alexander said that he did nothing wrong and that he was not in possession of evidence that anyone else had plans to commit illegal acts.

CNN unearthed a video of Alexander saying he intended to reach out to the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers about doing security for his event despite his opposition to other extremists.

Alexander's statement about the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers was misconstrued. Alexander only had limited interactions with the Oath Keepers on January 6, 2021.
