Exclusive: Eric Trump and Kimberly Guilfoyle’s phone records subpoenaed by
The phone records obtained by the committee are part of a new round of call detail records subpoenaed from communication companies, multiple sources tell CNN.

Reached by CNN on Tuesday afternoon, the committee declined to comment on the new Trump and Guilfoyle subpoenas.
But in an interview with CNN’s Don Lemon on Monday night, select committee member Zoe Lofgren, a California Democrat, said, “We’re piecing together information from the President’s inner circle and others who were in a position to see and hear what the plot was leading up to the riot.”
Lofgren declined to say whether the committee had received information from the Trump family, while adding,…
