    The former Trump lawyer is increasingly the subject of legal scrutiny.

    By Kyle Cheney

    John Eastman, an architect of Donald Trumps last-ditch bid to subvert
    the 2020 election, has dropped a lawsuit aimed at blocking the Jan. 6
    select committee from obtaining his phone records.

    In a late Tuesday filing, Eastman voluntarily dismissed the suit,
    claiming that hed been assured the committee was only seeking his call
    logs not the content of any messages held by his carrier, Verizon. The
    select committee has long contended that it lacks the authority to
    obtain message content.
