President Joe Biden's White House will likely comply with requests for information about what former President Donald Trump and his aides were doing during the January 6 Capitol attack - setting up a legal battle with the ex-president.

The Washington Post reported Thursday that the White House wants to err on the side of disclosure, according to two unnamed sources, and hand over documents to the House select committee that is probing the events of January 6. 

Trump has said he will claim 'executive privilege' to block requests from Congress for information about the insurrection.
