The administration declined to make Jennifer O’Connor available for testimony, prompting the subpoena from Oversight Chairman Darrell Issa
quote:
Issa said O’Connor is a key witness because she helped the IRS respond to document requests about its targeting controversy. O’Connor started at the IRS in May 2013, shortly after the controversy broke, before later joining the White House counsel’s office.
“I'm disappointed that one year later, the White House has attempted to block this Committee's first request for voluntary cooperation from a White House official,” Issa said in a statement.
“Before her promotion to the White House, Ms. O'Connor led the response to the Congressional targeting inquiry and she is uniquely qualified to explain why attorneys did not focus on and flag Lerner's 'lost' e-mails at the outset."

The WH will likely want to claim executive privilege here, but I think that could backfire on them.
Issa, Gowdy, and others have been alleging for a long time that this came from the highgest levels of the government and the WH claiming EP on this could certainly give the general public the impression that the White House was in on it if spun by the right people.

Promoted to the White House, huh?
Sounds shady.
Should it sound shady?
Everything seems so shady now my shady detector is overwhelmed.
