Rudy Giuliani subpoenaed for Ukraine documents
In a significant political development, Rudy Giuliani, former New York City mayor and current personal attorney to President Donald Trump, has been subpoenaed by three House committees. The subpoena demands documents related to Giuliani's communications concerning Ukraine, particularly surrounding the contentious July 25th phone call between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The deadline for Giuliani to produce these documents is set for October 15, 2019. This action forms part of the ongoing impeachment inquiry led by House Democrats, with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi emphasizing that the investigation transcends political divides—it's fundamentally about patriotism and the nation's integrity.
In addition to Giuliani, key figures such as the former ambassador to Ukraine and Kurt Volker, who was the president's envoy to Ukraine before resigning, are expected to provide depositions to Congress this week. This flurry of activity underscores the inquiry's seriousness, as House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff signals that there will be further subpoenas issued.
During a recent interview, Schiff highlighted the potential for the whistleblower, who brought the initial complaint to light, to testify in front of Congress. This could clarify the matters laid out in the whistleblower's complaint, which has sparked a wave of scrutiny and debate surrounding the Trump administration's dealings with Ukraine.
As the situation unfolds, Giuliani and Trump continue to deny any wrongdoing, with Trump declaring that the phone call was "perfect," contradicting the whistleblower's claims.
