In the article, it was stated that the California Rep has been subpoenaed in a criminal case in her home state.
Clerk Tylease Alli read Pelosi’s statement, “This is to notify you formally pursuant to Rule 8 of the Rules of the House of Representatives, that I, the honorable Nancy Pelosi, speaker emerita, and US representative for the 11th Congressional District of California, have been served with third-party subpoenas from the prosecution and the defendant to produce documents in a criminal case in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.”
It further added, “After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I have determined that compliance with the subpoenas is consistent with the privileges and rights of the House. To the extent it requires production of nonprivileged information, the responses to the subpoenas will be identical.”

A person simply called out Pelosi, “At the very least, she’s going to be embarrassed,” and another wrote, “She needs about 50 more subpoenas related to her activities as congresswoman and speaker, that have nothing to do with her husband's deviant trail.”
