House panel subpoenas former White House communications director Hope Hicks and former chief of staff to White House counsel Don McGahn

WASHINGTON—The House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday subpoenaed two former White House officials for documents and testimony, a day after another former official rebuffed the panel’s subpoena at the White House’s direction.

The committee sent subpoenas to former White House communications director Hope Hicks, one of President Trump’s closest advisers, and Annie Donaldson, who served as chief of staff to former White House counsel Don McGahn. Both Ms. Hicks and Ms. Donaldson spoke to special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigators....

What does any of this have to do with addressing the country’s legislative needs? Congress needs to get back to work and to stop revisiting the Mueller investigation.

Fck it. Start the impeachment proceedings.

Nonsense

They will be requesting the kitchen staff and gardens testify soon

whatever will she wear some cleavage and stylish pantsuit

Moist files

Hoping Dems tell Barr to show up & bring Mueller documents or be found in cotempt. Same for McGaha. Jail, fine and/or disbar a few of these weasels and watch the rest show up and testify. Congress is doing oversight. Mueller did a criminal investigation. Totally different things.

More subpoenas They are issuing subpoenas that are being used as toilet paper as if there are going out of style.!!

Apparently, it won't matter. Today, no one is required to appear under a subpoena.

Its so obvious the D plan is to subpoena first, before simply inviting them to testify, knowing they’ll not show and then go on CNN/MSNBC and wine about Trump. Keep it up and we will have 4 more years of Trump.

This is insanity! All of these people have already testified and been investigated by mueller. Now congress decides for a complete do over until they get an answer they like?

Maybe if Hillary hadn't ignored her congressional subpoena and went ahead and deleted 30,000 emails, people might take this seriously.

Dems continue these frivolous, unfounded inquiries, then complain when the administration is spending so much to have to respond to them.

Hope she tells them to take a big flying leap and says something real nasty to Nadler.

I remember the first time I see Hope Hicks, ive never been so interested in politics, if ya catch my drift ;)

How much more ridiculous is this going to get? Impeachment inquiry now!!

Hahahaha fake subpoenas
