I hold contempt for the whole process
“May”
And then again, may not.
I hold Congress in contempt every day of the year.
Been that way for years, even when Paul Ryan, Bush League Republican, was Speaker.
Good sign. This is Boltons guy. A lot of people here were panicked that Bolton was going to sell us out. His ego may be hurt but I have trouble believing Jon is going to help the Rats whom he knows is destroying our country.
I wonder how many hundreds of FOIA requests the Rats are stonewalling Judicial Watch on.
Congress can’t just issue subpoenas on a whim.
Am waiting to see what the authority for these alleged subpoenas is.
And waiting, and waiting, ...
Contempt of what?
You need to organize as a judicail body and gavel in to have any authority
Are these now legal subpoenas or just more of the ‘request letters’ from congress? MSM still using the language as propaganda...Tell them to vote or pound sand.
How can one be held in contempt for a quasi-legal proceeding that itself is a violation of House precedent, rule, protocol,and the law?
do their duty ...
Give me a break. The only duty the Rats do is number 2.
Adam Schitt went way off the rails this morning.
Even Ken Starr took him to task.
This guy consulted with his lawyer and the WH and decided to challenge Schitts subpoena in court.
Of course, Schitt declared that a court challenge was further proof of POTUS obstruction AND GUILT because only the guilty are afraid to testify.
Being held in contempt by a contemptible congressman is honorable
No duty to show up for an invitation, even if they stamped it with the word “subpoena”.
Demand letter don't mean crap.
Anybody have a better take on this subpoena question? Thanks.
There is no impeachment. The House has not voted for such. Why should he attend a show trial where he will be abused?
Can they hold a citizen in contempt when their invitation to testify is not backed by an actual subpoena? And since neither the committee, nor the House as a whole, have voted to authorize an investigation do they even have the legal power to compel testimony?
[[ex-Trump deputy national security advisor Kupperman may be held in contempt over no-show]]
Why? How? Is there an impeachment going on or something? No? Then how can he be held in contempt?
[[No duty to show up for an invitation,]]
EXACTLY- that’s all it is- an invitation!
The Shiv should be treated with contempt!
