DOJ tells Jordan FBI subpoenas can't 'be enforced,' warns Hunter Biden inquiry 'ongoing'
Washington examiner ^ | 8/29/23 | Ashley Oliver

Posted on 08/29/2023 9:13:13 PM PDT by CFW

The Department of Justice informed the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday night that it would not cooperate with subpoenas for two FBI agents involved in the department's investigation of Hunter Biden because of the committee's stipulations for their depositions.

Carlos Uriarte, DOJ assistant attorney general, claimed in a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner to committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) that his subpoenas to the two agents "lack legal effect and cannot constitutionally be enforced" because Jordan had prohibited DOJ lawyers at their depositions.

"The subpoenas issued by the Committee prohibit the attendance of agency counsel at appearances by two FBI employees where the Committee has indicated it will ask questions regarding information they learned within the scope of their official duties, including regarding the ongoing criminal investigation," Uriarte wrote.

He also noted that compelling testimony from the pair of FBI officials, special agents Thomas Sobocinski and Ryeshia Holley of the FBI's Baltimore Field Office, "was premature."

The GOP is a fundraising personal enrichment scam.

It won’t even being an impeachment inquiry against a Satanic criminal who is burning our nation the ground.

They are worse than Useless.

They need to send in the national guard and arrest the top
100 management people, then sort it out after they spend
the next ten years in solitary first.

Two can play that little game.

“Cut off their funding cold.”

Too many RINOs would vote with the Democrats to keep the funding at record levels.

The voters need to get serious and stop reelecting RINOs. Elections have consequences.

Without exception, future ongoing DoJ funding should occur biweekly.

Arrest Carlos and throw him in the congressional jail. And the next, and the next, and the next until they get the message.

Contempt of Congress is inexcusable, and these clowns need to be reminded that they work for the people, not the other way around.

"The GOP is a fundraising personal enrichment scam."

I believe because of their involvement, the GOP has set themselves up for blackmail. They make a move for impeachment and the Dems will make sure everyone knows what they have been doing.

He [Carlos Uriarte, DOJ assistant attorney general] also added that the time for testimony from anyone at the DOJ involved in the investigation would be "most appropriate" once the investigation is closed.

"As we and Mr. Weiss himself have noted, the most appropriate time for any testimony on the subject of any individual ongoing criminal investigation is after the matter is closed," Uriarte wrote.

When Uriarte states in his smarmy fashion that the "most appropriate time" for Jordan's witness questioning is ""after the matter is closed," everyone knows that time will come long after the 2024 election is over.

All this bogus shucking & jiving will come to an abrupt halt once Biden's Impeachment investigation gets underway. The investigatory powers of the Congressional Impeachment Committee is absolute. Uriarte and his ilk will have to cough-up every last iota of Biden's criminal activity and watch helplessly as The Big Guy goes down in flames.
