The Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attack on the United States Capitol wants to talk to Ohio congressional candidate Max Miller about his role in planning former President Donald Trump’s rally that preceded his supporters’ attack on the U.S. Capitol in an unsuccessful effort to stop Congress from tallying electoral votes from the 2020 presidential election.
A letter the committee sent Miller on Thursday said he participated in a January 4 meeting in a private dining room off the Oval Office with Trump, Robert “Bobby” Peede, Jr. and Katrina Pierson to plan the rally where Trump would air his allegations of election fraud. The letter said the discussion centered on who Trump wanted to speak at the rally. Miller worked as a White House senior advisor to Trump at the time.
