House Democrats on Friday sent out more subpoenas in their impeachment inquiry to White House officials who have also indicated that they wouldnt voluntarily testify.<\/p>\n

The subpoena letters were sent to Russ Vought (pdf<\/a>), President Trumps acting budget director; Michael Duffey (pdf<\/a>), a senior official in the Office of Management and Budget; and T. Ulrich Brechbuhl (pdf<\/a>), counsel at the U.S. Department of State.<\/p>\n

The three letters were signed by Reps. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.), Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), and Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.). Respectively, they are the heads of the House committees on Foreign Affairs, Intelligence, and Oversight that Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has tasked with heading the inquiry.<\/p>\n

On Twitter, Vought has slammed Democrats leading the impeachment inquiry, saying that reports about cooperation were \u201cfake news\u201d and described it as a sham.<\/p>\n

He cited an Oct. 8 letter from the White House to the House committees leading the impeachment inquiry that officials would not participate in the process.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw some Fake News over the weekend to correct,\u201d Vought tweeted<\/a>. \u201cAs the WH letter made clear two weeks ago, OMB officials\u2014myself and Mike Duffey\u2014will not be complying with deposition requests this week.\u201d<\/p>\n

Democrats have called on Duffey to appear on Nov. 5, Vought to appear on Nov. 6, and Brechbuhl also to appear on Nov. 6.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour failure or refusal to appear at the deposition, including at the direction or behest of the President or White House, shall constitute evidence of obstruction of the Houses impeachment inquiry and may be used as an adverse inference against the President,\u201d the letter to Duffey read.<\/p>\n
