A lawyer for the conspiracy theorist says he believes Corsi will be asked about his contacts with former Trump aide Roger Stone.
Jerome Corsi, a conspiracy theorist with links to both ex-Trump aide Roger Stone and Infowars host Alex Jones, has been subpoenaed to testify before a federal grand jury in Washington, D.C., Friday as part of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, his attorney says.

Corsi, who has written such books as "Where’s the Birth Certificate?" and "Killing the Deep State: The Fight to Save President Trump" will fully comply with the Mueller team’s subpoena, according to attorney David Gray.
The subpoena was first reported by the New York Times.
Gray told NBC News he expects his client will be questioned about his contacts and communications with Stone.
Questions have long swirled about Stone's possible interactions with WikiLeaks and hacker Guccifer 2.0 during the 2016 campaign, when both entities were releasing Democratic emails that had been hacked by Russian intelligence agents.
Stone has denied any wrongdoing, and says he had no advance knowledge of hacked emails.
Gray also says Corsi will bring his computer and cell phone to Washington as part of his effort to cooperate with the special counsel.
Corsi’s name first came up in the probe in March. As first reported by NBC News, Trump ally and Corsi associate Ted Malloch was detained at Boston’s Logan Airport and questioned by the FBI.
Malloch said federal agents questioned him about Stone, Corsi and WikiLeaks. Malloch said he told them he met Stone a total of three times and always with groups of people, and that Corsi had helped edit one of his books years ago.
A spokesperson for the special counsel’s office declined to comment.
Corsi became the D.C. bureau chief for Infowars in 2017, but no longer works there. Prior to the 2016 presidential election he was a source for Trump's incorrect claims that Barack Obama was not born in the U.S. (2 images)

Deepstate desperation. This a clear sign Muleface the deepstate lackey will do anything to stop Trump constitution be damned.
How much more will the people take before they ask for Muleface, Session's and Rosenstein's head! It could not be clearer that laws do not matter. We knew this when Clinton was not charged and Sessions refuses to act even now.

Is Mueller going to ask Corsi about Obama's birth certificate?

they're just neocon party hacks.
Disinformation was a lot more entertaining in the 70's when they spiced it up with stuff like Big Foot, UFOs and the Bermuda Triangle.
Then ALGORE had to go and invent the interwebs. Ruined disinfotainment forever.
Now we just get mindless bullshyte pumped at us through a fire hose 24/7/365
