Who is afraid of Congress?
If I got a Subpoena I’d do the same thing.

Who is afraid of Congress?

***************

Well, lets just say that when the congress is on one of its frequent recesses or vacations, nobody notices. Or cares.

This is all on congress. They are the ones who voluntarily have given up their powers to the judiciary, the executive branch and now to the new unspoken of until recently bureaucratic branch of government. Congress holds no one accountable and they eagerly fund the bureaucratic branch without question.

Congress has the power to rein in this contempt the other branches have for it, they just will not use the power. When they start talking holding people in contempt and impeachment if I were a part of the judiciary, executive or bureaucratic branches I wouldn’t give them the time of day until I saw someone marched out in handcuffs and thrown in jail. Until then Congress is the epitome of Trey Gowdey, you talk tough, you bluster, you threaten and then you walk quietly away until the next time you decide to do your windbag thing yet again.
