He was subpoenaed by the House Select Committee investigating Jan. 6.
In January 2022, the Committee issued subpoenas to Nick Fuentes (and Patrick Casey) over their promotion of election-fraud conspiracy theories, their role in planning pro-Trump rallies that preceded the Capitol attack, and large Bitcoin donations they received prior to Jan. 6.

He was on Capitol grounds that day.
Fuentes did not enter the Capitol building as far as public evidence indicates—he was present outside, on the grounds. (Sources: Wikipedia, Politico)
