Following predictions of Democrats regaining control of the House, the incoming chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), has issued a stark warning to the Trump administration: "LAWYER UP."
Democrats on the committee, a key investigative body in the House, have pledged to utilize their majority to scrutinize President Trump, his family, his staff, and his policies. This suggests a flurry of subpoenas is anticipated to target various administration officials.
The White House is reportedly preparing for these intensified investigations, having already increased its counsel's office staff and preparing to assert executive privilege as a defense against revealing information.
