Full title - Schiff says ex-Trump deputy national security advisor Charles Kupperman may be held in contempt over no-show in impeachment inquiry

[aynrandfreak]

I hold contempt for the whole process

[Fido969]

“May”

And then again, may not.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I hold Congress in contempt every day of the year.

Been that way for years, even when Paul Ryan, Bush League Republican, was Speaker.

[Track9]

I wonder how many hundreds of FOIA requests the Rats are stonewalling Judicial Watch on.

[Vendome]

Contempt of what?

You need to organize as a judicail body and gavel in to have any authority

[Magnum44]

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.

[lastchance]

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?

[Track9]

”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 Schitt’s 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

[Ingtar]

No duty to show up for an invitation, even if they stamped it with the word “subpoena”.

[HotHunt]

I didn't think that unless the full House voted for an impeachment inquiry that subpoenas count be issued. Only demand letters.

Demand letter don't mean crap.

Anybody have a better take on this subpoena question? Thanks.

[backwoods-engineer]

There is no impeachment. The House has not voted for such. Why should he attend a show trial where he will be abused?

[Tallguy]

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?

[Bob434]

[[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?

[fruser1]

Does sending an invitation disguised as a subpoena considered mail fraud?

[rolling_stone]

hard to believe schiff was once a federal prosecutor

[goldstategop]

What is kangaroo court judge Schiff gonna do about it? Geez!

[montag813]

House contempt resolutions have ZERO legal impact. Just ask Eric Holder.

[SERKIT]

An unlawful subpoena from Adam SCIF, Grand Kleagle of the Coup Klutz Clan?
