WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows has sued the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.

The dueling actions Wednesday laid bare simmering tensions between the committee and Meadows, seen by Democratic lawmakers as a pivotal player in their investigation.

Meadows’ suit was filed in federal court in Washington.
