That's not what the legal pundits are saying tonight, but we'll see. Like everyone else, I'm hoping!

And that does make prefect sense. This is the "comeuppance" we've waited for - for so long!

did McGahn face any consequences? I doubt Trump will either

(21,349 posts)2. This is my 3rd post on this.
Professor Raskin explained tonight, if you read between the lines, why the subpoena.
He actually said, if he doesn't show he can be called a snowflake.
The real reason involves the J6 committee's final written report. The J6 committee is going to make assertions about Trump and if he disagrees all he has to do is show up for the subpoena and set the record straight,
I came up with reason #3, to get Merrick Garland's attention.
Trump will never show and I don't think the J6 committee expects him.

And Jamie Raskin is the best, as usual...
