Breaking - House is going to compel Don Mcgahn to come before it

[malaise]

Mark my word impeachment hearings are coming - starting with the investigation.
That way they have enough teeth to get McGahn.

Justice is coming.

[MoonRiver]

1. Great news!

[50 Shades Of Blue]

2. YES!

[W_HAMILTON]

3. What does this mean?

I thought they already compelled him to testify via a subpoena, which he ignored?

[malaise]

4. Maybe the marshal will lock him up this time

or when they start the impeachment investigation people who have been sent subpoenas will have to come before the relevant committee.

14. Exec privileges. That's their argument which may

Take months even years to resolve in courts. We are getting majorly fucked over with Trump's expert ability to out lawyer and drag things out in court.

[NewJeffCT]

5. How are they going to compel him?

and, what's to stop him from invoking Executive Privilege, Blanket Immunity and/or just Taking the 5th?

[BigmanPigman]

6. Claire McCaskill said that the Dems need to take all the

people who have not cooperated with subpoenas to the courts and that will get the show on the road so that after their Aug break they can return, have requested documents and witnesses ready to start impeachment in Sept when they return. All of the stonewalling by this admin and his witnesses will have to go to the courts (probably SCOTUS) and they will win.

7. They are going to get an exorcist? The power of Christ compels you!

If you think this is far from the reality, you should think again!

[procon]

8. "Justice is coming."

That should be the Dems new motto.

[bluestarone]

9. I like this!

[kentuck]

10. That means:

Trump will insist he declare executive privilege.

And that means Democrats will vote to begin an impeachment inquiry.

Win-win.

[malaise]

11. Precisely

Things are gonna get hot and soon

[Fiendish Thingy]

12. Source? Where did you get this info? Nt

[triron]

15. Yes the source would be good to know.

The man whose testimony could ultimately prove crucial in a potential impeachment battle isn’t appearing before a congressional committee this week. The biggest question facing Democrats is whether he will ever testify at all.

Even as House investigators prepare for Wednesday’s much-anticipated appearance of former special counsel Robert Mueller in front of two House committees, Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler is readying his next step: seeking to compel testimony from former White House counsel Don McGahn, the person considered to be the potential linchpin of an obstruction of justice case against President Donald Trump.

13. Slow and steady wins the race.

17. I hope so.
