Also on Thursday, House Democrats issued subpoenas to two associates of Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani who were indicted by federal prosecutors. The leaders of the three House committees leading the impeachment inquiry demanded that Parnas and Fruman turn over documents related to communications with the White House, Ukrainian officials and Giuliani by Oct. 16.
