He’s the White House lawyer who said the line

“ I’m going to give you the best free law advice you will ever get, get a good fucking lawyer…. You are going to need it”

A federal grand jury investigating the Jan. 6 attack has subpoenaed Trump White House lawyer Eric Herschmann for documents and testimony, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Herschmann represented Donald Trump in the former president’s first impeachment trial and later joined the White House as a senior adviser. He did not work in the White House counsel’s office, but did provide Trump with legal advice. Because of that responsibility, there will likely be litigation over the scope of the subpoena and over how executive and attorney-client privileges may limit Herschmann’s ability to comply.

During the tumultuous final weeks of Trump’s term, Herschmann clashed with other aides and advisers who pushed the defeated president to fight the election results. He was also present for many of the most consequential meetings in that period of time. Among them was a high-stakes meeting where most of the Trump Justice Department’s top brass threatened to resign rather than work under a colleague who wanted to advance spurious claims of widespread voter fraud.

Herschmann also sparred with Sidney Powell and Michael Flynn when they urged Trump to have the military seize voting machines. The Jan. 6 select committee has aired numerous portions of his testimony to their panel, which is blunt and sometimes darkly amusing.

The Revolution is going after Trump and anyone associated with Trump full tilt as a lesson to the rest of us that we are not allowed to have Trump as a leader, and anyone who refuses to learn this lesson will be hurt until they capitulate.

I warned you.

I hope DAMO is paying attention to how often I am right......he is certainly smart enough to understand how much that matters.

The subpoena seeks documents and testimony from Mr. Herschmann, who had access to high-level discussions about the plans to overturn the 2020 election, including efforts to interfere with the Justice Department and seize voting machines. It was unclear which of two federal grand juries had subpoenaed him: One is focused on the Jan. 6 attack itself, and the other has been investigating a scheme connected to the Trump campaign to try to overturn the election results using false slates of electors.

So what? The Jan 6 inquisition has subpoenaed every lawyer that ever talked to Trump at any time it seems. Nothing will come of this time, just like all the times before.

This Revolution has gotten further than you think.

This is from a grand jury. Not the J 6 committee.
