Rep. Elijah Cummings, chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, said the White House has “refused to engage with – or even respond to” the committees’ requests
WASHINGTON – House Democrats are threatening to subpoena the White House in an escalating battle over documents and witness testimony in the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump's dealings with Ukraine.
“The White House’s flagrant disregard of multiple voluntary requests for documents – combined with stark and urgent warnings from the Inspector General about the gravity of these allegations – have left us with no choice but to issue this subpoena,” Cummings wrote in a memo to committee members that was released along with a draft subpoena.
Pelosi is"incapable" of working on other issues, Trump tweeted. "It is just camouflage for trying to win an election through impeachment. The Do Nothing Democrats are stuck in mud!" That call prompted a whistleblower to file an anonymous complaint alleging that Trump was"using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election."
“We’re not fooling around here,” Schiff said Wednesday."It’s hard to imagine a more corrupt course of conduct."
