House Democrats Will Not Give GOP The Power To Cover-Up For Trump


Rep. Elijah Cummings, the incoming chairman of the powerful House Oversight Committee, will not give subpoena power to the Republicans on his committee.

Rep. Cummings explained that House Oversight Republicans would not be getting subpoena power because, “They who have power in Washington have all power, and I think the American people have said they want checks and balances. The subpoenas that I want to issue will be much different than the ones that I’ve seen. I want to issue subpoenas that go to the very heart of our democracy and protecting that democracy, and subpoenas by the way that may involve private industry, like say the pharmaceutical industry on these skyrocketing drug prices. It’s our opportunity. I will consult with them. I will work with them, unlike they did with me, but no.”

House Republicans abused and their oversight powers for years. If Republicans were given the power to issue subpoenas, they would derail every hearing and investigation with conspiracy theories and bogus witnesses. This isn’t a guess or an assumption. It is the track record of House Republicans when they held the majority.

Republicans would still be able to run their cover-up operation for Trump if they had subpoena power. The House under Republican control was corrupted and turned into a puppet for the White House. It is time to return the House back to its status as a powerful piece of the legislative branch of the government.

This is going to happen with good stewardship that begins with keeping Republicans and their corrupt president away from the subpoena power of powerful committees.

5. The Republican senate will and will have all the tv spots

Democrats need to obtain a news outlet so at least facts will come to light.
