Judge rejects former White House press secretary Jen Psaki's effort to quash subpoena
  • el año pasado
A judge refused Friday to quash a subpoena issued to former White House press secretary Jen Psaki that seeks her deposition in a lawsuit filed by Missouri and Louisiana, alleging that the Biden administration conspired to silence conservative voices on social media. Psaki filed a motion in federal court in Alexandria seeking to quash the subpoena, saying that she had no relevant information to provide and that a deposition would place an undue burden on her. The Justice Department supported her efforts to quash. U.S. Magistrate Ivan Davis said during a hearing Friday that he was unimpressed with Psaki's arguments. But he did not reject her request outright. Instead, he transferred the case back to Louisiana, where the lawsuit was filed. The Louisiana judge has already issued an order saying that Psaki and other government officials can be deposed. That order is being appealed. Psaki was allowed to file a separate opposition in Virginia because she lives in the state and would be depose
