WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows was granted immunity to testify under oath in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 case, ABC News reported on Tuesday, citing unnamed sources.
ABC News reported Meadows, who served as the final chief of staff for former U.S. President Donald Trump, informed Smith’s team he repeatedly told the then president in the weeks following the 2020 presidential election that the allegations of significant voting fraud were baseless.
Trump faces charges in the case accusing him of illegally attempting to overturn his defeat in the 2020 presidential election.
