Breaking: The House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed the Homeland Security department for documents connected to Trump's alleged offer to pardon officials who break the law while carrying out his wishes on immigration policy
The House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed the Department of Homeland Security for documents connected to President Donald Trump's alleged offer to pardon officials who break the law while carrying out his wishes on immigration policy.
Trump has denied making the offer and his allies have reportedly claimed his closed-door comments — revealed in media reports — were jokes. But Democrats say they want to see the records from inside the department, particularly as the Judiciary Committee considers whether to recommend articles of impeachment to the full House.
The subpoena, issued to acting DHS secretary Kevin McAleenan, requires a response by Sept. 17 at 10 a.m.
