(CNN) The House select committee investigating January 6 has received all 700-plus pages from the National Archives that former President Donald Trump had tried to block the panel from receiving. A spokesperson for the National Archives told CNN, "Yesterday evening NARA provided the Select Committee with all the records at issue in the litigation." The Supreme Court cleared the way for the panel to receive the documents earlier this week. The records now in the committee's possession could help answer some of the most closely guarded facts of what happened between Trump and other high-level officials on January 6, 2021, and fill in key holes in the committee's investigation. The Archives said in a court filing in October that the records Trump wanted to keep secret include handwritten memos from his chief of staff Mark Meadows about January 6, call logs of the then-President and former Vice President Mike Pence, and White House visitor records.
