- The House Intelligence Committee on Monday subpoenaed Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, for key documents related to Trump's efforts to get Ukraine to interfere in the 2020 election.
- The subpoena is part of the House's wide-ranging impeachment inquiry into Trump that was launched last week.
- Giuliani has said publicly on multiple occasions that he pushed Ukrainian officials to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter ahead of the election.
- "In addition to this stark admission, you stated more recently that you are in possession of evidence — in the form of text messages, phone records, and other communications — indicating that you were not acting alone and that other Trump Administration officials may have been involved in this scheme," House lawmakers said in a letter accompanying the subpoena.
