“Trump World will not continue paying your legal bills,” Stefan said, “if you don’t have a second subpoena.” Any hope I clung to about a proper attorney-client relationship disappeared like vapor. I didn’t remark on the disclosure or do or say anything to indicate I was anything other than surprised and frustrated by the committee’s decision. “You’re right, Stefan. I think we would need a second subpoena.” I was scared that Stefan would see through me. The news had gotten out that the committee wanted another round with me, and it was making Trump World nervous.
