The House Judiciary Committee issued a subpoena Thursday for former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe’s memos as well as the supporting documents the FBI used in its application to conduct surveillance on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

A group of conservative Republicans, including Meadows and Jordan, had previously requested that Trump declassify those documents, as well as parts of the actual application to surveil Page. Rep. Jerold Nadler (D-N.Y.), the top Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md. The subpoena comes on top of a series of letters that House Republicans recently issued to various potential witnesses they hoped to interview as part of their ongoing probe.
