I have questions about the 18 day gap & missing e-mails ???

[debbierlus]

Maybe, some brilliant DU'er can answer....

1. Have the e-mails been subpeona'ed already? Or were they given voluntarily up to Congress? If so, why haven't
subpeona's been issued immediately? And, if they are not, what can Congress due to get the rest of the e-mails
IMMEDIATELY!

2. Are they going after the Republican National Headquarters servers that I have read about here on DU (bypassing
official servers and communicating on these 'hidden' servers?

Thanks all. Trying to figure it all out. Please add questions and references to this thread.

Thanks

1. committees give people a chance to, as they say, "Come to Jesus"

it's when they get insulted by incomplete cooperation that the subpoenas come out. It also gives you some idea what you should be subpoenaing. So, up to this point, this has not been terribly out of place for an administration being asked for records by a committee controlled by the other party. What happens from here now that the middle finger has been waved to Congress is the real issue.

I've heard about those servers too. Since it's private property it'll take subpoenas. So, that's probably waiting for when they issue subpoenas for the DoJ stuff too. By the standards of Congress this is moving very swiftly. It's just that subpoenas get fought so anything you can get without one tends to be the bird in hand rather than the two in the bush.
