Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) suggested on July 24 that the Jan. 6 committee could subpoena Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, if she chooses not to testify before the select committee voluntarily.

“The committee is engaged with her counsel. We certainly hope that she will agree to come in voluntarily,” Cheney told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday. Cheney is one of two Republicans that sit on the Democrat-dominated panel to investigate the breach of the U.S. Capital on Jan 6, 2021.
