A Democratic strategist who helped organize a “White Dudes for Harris” name mentioned he’s combating again in opposition to a subpoena from Republican Home Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) on Friday.
“I’m objecting to the subpoena issued by Jim Jordan and the Republican-led Home Judiciary Committee in its entirety. This subpoena serves no official legislative function—making it invalid, unconstitutional, and unenforceable,” Genuine Campaigns CEO Mike Nellis mentioned in a post on X late Friday.
The Home Judiciary Committee previously subpoenaed Genuine Campaigns, an organization the daughter of the New York decide overseeing former President Trump’s hush cash trial has labored for. In a letter late final month, Jordan requested that Nellis sit for a deposition alongside the corporate, in addition to signal a sworn affidavit that Genuine Campaigns by no means had contact with Decide Juan Merchan.
Nellis additionally posted the letter from his authorized workforce to Jordan, encouraging his followers to learn it.
The letter states “Genuine’s work is by no means linked to former President Trump’s authorized proceedings in New York,” and that the corporate “has had no function, involvement, or affect in any respect in these proceedings.”
“Your repeated insinuations on the contrary, and your argument that Decide Merchan might not have been neutral in presiding over former President Trump’s proceedings due to Genuine’s ‘work on behalf of President Trump’s political adversaries and the doable monetary profit that Ms. Merchan and Genuine Campaigns acquired from the prosecution and conviction of President Trump,’ is as baseless as it’s harmful,” the letter continues.
The Hill has reached out to Jordan’s workplace and the Home Judiciary Committee.
