National tragedy: J6 committee condemns AZ GOP chair in explosive new SCOTUS filinghttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/national-tragedy-j6-committee-condemns-az-gop-chair-in-explosive-new-scotus-filing/ar-AA13uSVl?ocid=U483DHP&pc=U483&cvid=a3b835e9f60f4505b021bda628e91a8c
Ward repeatedly invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination when questioned by the select committee.
"The Select Committees investigation of those events and their causes is of immense importance, and the Select Committee is only authorized to exist until January 3, 2023, when the 117th Congress ends," the filing said. "Dr. Wards insistence that this Court take the highly unusual step of becoming involved now on an emergency basis is deeply flawed both because the rulings by the courts below are correct and because there is no legal issue warranting this Courts action."
Ward has argued thousands of Republicans could be implicated if the select committee obtains her phone records.
