1. It is simple really, do this or America is gone and many of us will be killed, imprisoned etc.

[Hoyt]

2. They really should have had a plan before issuing the subpoenas. But, it is new ground.

8. this is not new ground ! read history - congress has a extraordinary amount of power !

3. They Are Going To Have To

Yes, it is already way past time. “Inherent Contempt” authority is perfectly legal, and though it has not been used since the 1920s, it’s up to the House of it wants to use it again,

6. I agree.

DOJ and the courts take too long. These people need to forced to sit before the House and answer questions or face serious consequences.

[Grasswire2]

7. as Schiff (I think) said earlier --

Congress should not have to ask a wholly different branch of government to enforce their subpoenas. Congress is co-equal to Executive Branch, where DoJ resides.

Do it.

9. NFS

No fucking shit. Somebody. Anybody. Haul someone to Congress or jail.

Really, though, I believe the state of Georgia will do us all a favor again and indict the Trump gang on RICO charges for trying to intimidate Georgia election officials to commit election fraud. That’s a charge that’ll stick.

And also, the whole fraud whine was a scam, raking in millions for the Grifter-in-Chief. He never misses a chance to fleece his followers.
