1:28Now PlayingThe January 6 committee unveiled video of former President Donald Trump's allies that suggested he planned to dispute unfavorable election results.
RELATEDJan. 6 committee votes to subpoena former President Donald Trump
The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack voted to subpoena former President Donald Trump Thursday after a dramatic meeting where its members presented evidence that Trump incited the assault on the Capitol even though he knew he had lost the election.
Some of the former president's followers were armed, the committee said, including that the Secret Service knew before the attack that some in the crowd at Trump's rally had guns and other weapons.
"He is required to answer for his actions," committee chair Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said before the somber, 9-0 vote. "We have left no doubt – none – that Donald Trump led an effort to upend American democracy that directly resulted in the violence of Jan. 6."
In response, Trump was defiant. "Why didn't the Unselect Committee ask me to testify months ago?" he demanded on social media. "Why did they wait until the very end, the final moments of their last meeting? Because the Committee is a total 'BUST' that has only served to further divide our Country."
