I’m afraid I don’t understand this concept.
A congressional investigating committee doesn’t have the power to compel a witness to produce evidence? Really?
Have you checked into the Clintonemail.com IP address?
Their subpoena power flows through the attorney generals office, if that helps any
I join you in consternation. How can the committee’s rules empower it to compel witnesses to appear, and agencies and individuals to produce documents, but not to produce the electronic repository of those documents? Gowdy must see legal wrangling with the Clintons as a tar-baby that will bog down his career. But this is now bigger than his remit, and requires an Independent Counsel.
We need a learned explanation of the ownership of the server. Hillary asserts that the server is part of Bill’s “ex Presidential office”, and also that it will “remain” private, thus implying it has been private property. But is it? When the taxpayers provide office infrastructure for ex-Presidents, do the ex-President’s take title to it as personal property? When? By what process? What stops ex-Presidents from buying expensive furnishings, artworks, etc. for their “office”, then selling them the next week, or carting them off to their homes? (If it was allowable, I am certain people like the Clintons would). I would really like to have some attorneys weigh in on this.
