The White House pushed back on a report that claimed special counsel Robert Mueller is in the process of trying to subpoena President Donald Trump for the Russia investigation.<\/p>\n

Hours after\u00a0Politico published an op-ed<\/a>\u00a0that said Mueller and Trump’s lawyers are discussing a subpoena, Trump himself said the story was false.<\/p>\n

Trump gave a simple “no” when asked if Mueller is attempting to issue him a subpoena,\u00a0Politico reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Others also denied the claim, including Jay Sekulow, one of Trump’s lawyers.<\/p>\n

“There has been no subpoena issued and there is no litigation,” Sekulow told Politico.<\/p>\n

Added Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani: “Totally wrong, not even a bit of truth.”<\/p>\n

The earlier Politico story put several pieces together and\u00a0hypothesized Trump was subpoenaed<\/a>\u00a0to appear before one of Mueller’s grand juries over the summer.<\/p>\n

Mueller’s investigation began in May 2017 amid claims Trump’s campaign colluded with the Russians to defeat Democrat Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n
