Lawmakers on the House select committee investigating the Capitol riot will get their hands on a handful of documents that Donald Trump has fought to keep hidden as early as Wednesday evening.
The Democrat-led panel is expected to receive four pages of documents concerning the Trump White House from the National Archives at 6 p.m. today, according to a court filing.
Only a last-minute Supreme Court injunction could stop their release.
The small set of White House papers is part of some 700 documents the committee has requested from the National Archives, linked to Trump's actions leading up to the Capitol attack on January 6.
'Absent an intervening court order, the Archivist intends to release records from the fourth tranche to the Committee at 6:00 pm tomorrow,' the federal agency wrote in a letter late Tuesday.
'Because the former President has not obtained such an injunction from any court, the release will proceed as scheduled absent an intervening court order.'
