"Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows will no longer cooperate with the House select committee investigating January 6 insurrection, according to a letter from his attorney to the panel, which was obtained by CNN on Tuesday."
"We agreed to provide thousands of pages of responsive documents and Mr. Meadows was willing to appear voluntarily, not under compulsion of the Select Committee's subpoena to him, for a deposition to answer questions about non-privileged matters. Now actions by the Select Committee have made such an appearance untenable," the letter from George J. Terwilliger II stated."

1. Prosecute!

2. Trump threatened him or had him threatened. Bet?

4. Meadows strikes me as being thoroughly on board and complicit with it all.

He never had any intention of cooperating.

12. Or he agreed before pulling out...

Because it eats up more time than refusing from the beginning

Stall stall stall

3. He was never going to cooperate.

The man had a book to sell. Once he got his big splash with the cooperation ruse, playing the media and others like suckers, he backed out, which was how it was always going to be. Can’t believe people fell for the idea he was actually going to cooperate.

6. Yep

They're all going to play stall ball from here on out, so the commission might as well put contempt charges on all of them. No more excuses.

5. They Should Charge Him Just Like Bannon

Perhaps his trial will be set for sometime in 2023.

7. Congress should respond immediately with a subpoena

Followed by an arrest warrant for contempt.

Very, very fast.

So that their heads spin.

11. That's the next step Meadows wanted to postpone

He has to make a show of resisting the committee now, because that's the preferred option. The previous show of cooperating with the committee has played out.

10. Throw his ASS in Jail
