"Federal courts have been deciding cases regarding the executive's compliance with subpoenas since the earliest days of the Republic."

As I said earlier; Down the rabbit hole, never to be heard of again. Benghazi is next. Then they can all sit around and sing Kumbya.

Calling Judge Sirica.

Sirica did more to expose Watergate than Woodward and Bernstein. He made them talk except for Gordon Liddy.

Is the Justice Department/White House still holding out on a privilege log?

They should be shredded in court without one.

Of course they can't submit a list of documents and reasons for privilege because then they will expose their hands.

Either they will clue the committee into new documents they don't have or if they don't list a document which the committee knows of but doesn't "officially" have it could be bad.
