Former President Trump turns to a federal appeals court as Friday's deadline to release his records to the January 6 committee looms
The filing is a last-ditch effort ahead of a Friday 6 p.m. deadline for the House committee investigating the Capitol attack to receive 46 records, including White House call logs, visitor logs, drafts of speeches and three handwritten memos from Trump's then-chief of staff Mark Meadows.
