One of those is a subpoena from the US Congress.

Some might look upon that as some sort of imposition? Rather it is a small price to pay to show that no one is above the law.

If someday Republicans are in charge of Congress and they subpoena someone to answer questions about national security and that "someone" tells them to "go screw themselves", then maybe you will have a different perspective?
