Former Trump White House counsel Donald McGahn must comply with a House subpoena, a federal court ruled Monday, finding that “no one is above the law” and that top presidential advisers cannot ignore congressional demands for information. The ruling raises the possibility that McGahn could be forced to testify as part of the impeachment inquiry.
U.S. District Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of Washington found no basis for a White House claim that the former counsel is “absolutely immune from compelled congressional testimony,” likely setting the stage for a historic separation-of-powers confrontation between the government’s executive and legislative branches.

President Donald Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Monday gave conflicting assessments of a new trade deal with Canada and Mexico, as they said they were waiting on the other to act.
Trump told reporters that a revised version of the North American Free Trade Agreement was “sitting on Nancy Pelosi’s desk” and that she was refusing to advance it under orders from labor unions.
Several hours later, Pelosi described a much different process, saying she was awaiting final decisions from Trump’s U.S. trade representative after months of negotiations.
“We are within range of a substantially improved agreement for America’s workers,” Pelosi said. “Now, we need to see our progress in writing from the trade representative for final review.”
