Summary

The New York Times reports that Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner have been subpoenaed by the special counsel investigating former President Trump’s involvement in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Special counsel Jack Smith has already subpoenaed former Vice President Pence to testify before a grand jury but he told reporters he’s “going to fight” the subpoena because it’s “unconstitutional and unprecedented.” Elliot Williams is a former Deputy Assistant Attorney General during the Obama administration. He tells Anderson Cooper what the special counsel can get in his investigation that the House Select Committee couldn’t.

Plus, CNN Chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward joins AC360 from Kyiv, Ukraine to tell the story of a man who is helping families of fallen Ukrainian soldiers properly mourn their loss.
