We'll start, my friends, with the January 6 Committee subpoena:
Pursuant to the authorities set forth in House Resolution 503 and the rules of the House of Representatives, the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (“Select Committee”) hereby transmits a subpoena that compels you to produce the documents set forth in the accompanying schedule by February 1, 2022, and to appear for a deposition on February 8, 2022.
The Select Committee is investigating the facts, circumstances, and causes of the January 6th attack and issues relating to the peaceful transfer of power, in order to identify and evaluate lessons learned and to recommend to the House and its relevant committees corrective laws, policies, procedures, rules, or regulations.
The Select Committee’s investigation has revealed credible evidence that you publicly promoted claims that the 2020 election was stolen and participated in attempts to disrupt or delay the certification of the election results based on your allegations. Between mid-November 2020 and January 26 (and thereafter) you actively promoted claims of election fraud on behalf of former President Trump -
At this point in the text, there's a footnote to a document from the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York. It's the court's decision to suspend Rudy Giuliani from practicing law in New York State.
Aren't you curious about why I am going down this route?
Take a look at page 9-10:
Respondent repeatedly stated that in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania more absentee ballots came in during the election than were sent out before the election. The factual “proof” he claimed supported his conclusion was that although Pennsylvania sent out only 1,823,148 absentee ballots before the election, 2,589,242 million absentee 10 ballots were then counted in the election. This factual statement regarding the number of ballots mailed out before the election was simply untrue. The true facts are that 3.08 million absentee ballots were mailed out before the general election, which more than accounted for the over 2.5 million mail-in ballots that were actually tallied. Notwithstanding the true facts, respondent repeatedly advanced false statements that there were 600,000 to 700,000 fabricated mail-in ballots, which were never sent to voters in advance of the election.5 Respondent made these false claims during his November 8, 2020 radio program, Uncovering the Truth with Rudy Giuliani & Dr. Maria Ryan, during a November 25, 2020 meeting of the Republican State Senate Majority Policy Committee in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania [Emphasis added.]
There it is. That would be this meeting organized by Pennsylvania State Senator (and GOP candidate for Pennsylvania Governor) Doug Mastriano:
At the request of Senator Doug Mastriano (R-Adams/Cumberland/Franklin/York), the Senate Majority Policy Committee is holding a public hearing Wednesday to discuss 2020 election issues and irregularities. The hearing will feature former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
Hello Senator Mastriano!. Did you think I wasn't going to look for a connection to you in Rudy's subpoena?
Your December 25 meeting is clearly referenced in the document. That's a BFD, don't you think?
Anyway, the letter to Giuliani ends with this:
Accordingly, the select committee seeks documents and a deposition regarding these and other matters that are within the scope of the select committee’s inquiry.So Senator Mastriano:
- Are you worried that in his deposition to this congressional committee, the disbarred and discredited Rudy Giuliani will be mentioning you at some point?
- Are you worried that he might have to pass on to this committee documents with your name on them?
- Are you worried that they might want to talk to you about your involvement in Trump's attempted coup?
