Pelosi reiterates call to protect Mueller after latest Trump tweet

Source: The Hill


BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 05/02/18 01:40 PM EDT

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) urged Speaker Paul Ryan to direct the House to take steps to protect Special Counsel Robert Mueller after President Trump lashed out at Mueller in a tweet on Wednesday.




Trump hit Mueller in a tweet, saying there was no obstruction of justice on his end, and referred to the probe as a setup and a trap.




The tweet came after The New York Times earlier this week obtained a list of questions Mueller reportedly wants to ask Trump.

The list suggested that the special counsel was interested in the issue of obstruction of justice, as well as Trump's firing of former FBI Director James Comey.

Subpoena
A subpoena is a written order to compel an individual to give testimony on a particular subject, often before a court, but sometimes in other proceedings (such as a Congressional inquiry). Failure to comply with such an order to appear may be punishable as contempt.

The rules controlling subpoenas in Federal matters are found in Rule 17 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and Rule 45 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

A subpoena can be more formally referred to as a subpoena ad testificandum, a subpoena to testify.
