Congressional investigators have issued a subpoena demanding that former Clinton White House adviser Sidney Blumenthal testify next month before the House of Representatives committee investigating the 2012 attack on U.S. diplomatic facilities in Benghazi, Libya.
The subpoena, a copy of which was made available to Reuters, demands that Blumenthal appear before the House committee on June 3 to give a deposition. The subpoena is dated Monday but carries a notation indicating an unnamed deputy U.S. marshal served it on Blumenthal's wife on Tuesday.
The copy of the subpoena contains no further details about the subject matter of the deposition.
"I can confirm Mr. Blumenthal has been called for a deposition by the committee," Jamal Ware, a spokesman for Republican Representative Trey Gowdy, the Benghazi committee chairman, said in response to a Reuters query.
More than two years ago, a set of emails sent by Blumenthal to Hillary Clinton while she served as secretary of state were posted on the Internet by a hacker who called himself Guccifer. Blumenthal did not work for Clinton when she was secretary of state and sent those emails as a private individual.
The emails included detailed private intelligence reports on events in Libya sent to Blumenthal by Tyler Drumheller, a former senior CIA officer. Some of the emails were sent around the time of the Benghazi attacks on and discussed information Drumheller's sources gave him about the attack.

Doesn’t the subpoena have to be handed directly to the person in question? The article said it was given to the wife.

Usually. But she may have agreed to accept it on his behalf.
Remember Guccifer saved all of Hillary’s emails to cloud. That’s how we knew about their communication in the first place. & Hillary’s use of private server
He has made it clear he will cooperate with the US investigators when “the time was right”
The only question remains is whether Gowdy has the emails now so he can construct the questioning to create perjury or
Whether they appear later to do the same. One or two well worded questions should let those under oath know Gowdy has more then he has admitted
It’s a set up. He is going to absolve Hillary of everything.
They need to be ready to grant immunity right there on the spot. I mean who cares about him? Then if he still refuses to answer hold him in the house dungeon.
Nixon didn’t go to jail. Many of his loyal staff did. Remember if its done too soon O will just pardon them. Timing is everything
I have to agree with "mojito"... Where's the special prosecutor?
FIrst get him to testify under oath. Then take him to a special prosecutor.and present him with the evidence and ask the question again
I am not, nor have I ever been a man of violence.
But every time I hear Blumenthal’s name, I want to pick up a 2x4
and smash it against his head.
I am not, nor have I ever been a man of violence....Ummm...MIGHT be time to change your outlook, although I personally admire you. The times, they are a changin’.
