More Congressional Subpoenas, But Still No Use of Congress's Lawful Tool of Inherent Contempt

The House select committee investigating the January 6 Capitol attack has issued another round of congressional subpoenas, inching closer to the hub of the conspiracy, Donald Trump. These subpoenas - for Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis and others - will almost certainly be ignored, defied, derided and dodged just as others have been. The question we ask over and over again is: when will Congress use its lawful power of inherent contempt to enforce its subpoenas?

In another development, the Supreme Court rejected Trump's attempt to stop the January 6 committee from getting presidential records from the National Archives. This is yet another indicator that the investigative circle is tightening around Donald Trump.

What was it? I see video unavailable.
It's a guy that seemed to be admitting that he got fully sucked into trump bs and referenced it as a cult and needed a recovery period and then Jordan Klepper asks him if the election was stolen. He replies with, "I don't think the election was stolen, I know the election was stolen". And he also says, "this is how someone in a cult, often responds" and aaaaaalso says, "I'm in a much better place". Totally baffling.

Trump Faces New Criminal Grand Jury Request From D.A. Investigating His Georgia Election Plot

Congress is now seeking witness testimony from Ivanka Trump about the January 6th insurrection. As a senior adviser in the White House at the time, she apparently heard Trump and Pence “talk on the crucial morning of January 6th.” Meanwhile, in the criminal probe Trump faces regarding his effort to steal votes in Georgia, the top prosecutor is formally requesting a criminal grand jury. This comes after SCOTUS rebuffed Trump’s effort to hide White House documents from the January 6th Committee.

Rudy Giuliani is exposed as the mastermind behind the GOP plot to use fake electors in seven states to steal the election for Trump — the former mayor handled "the nuts-and-bolts of the process on a state-by-state level."
Rudy is desperate and broke the last I heard and is facing a mountain of legal shit himself, Rudy could be in a position to make a deal with the feds. Donald threw him under the bus, so why not return the favor, however with the evidence against Trump, they probably don't need him.

Using the terms Rudy and mastermind in the same breath seems oxymoronic. I hope they don't call him a mastermind in court, the jury might let him off! As he sits decrepit in the dock drooling, dripping brown shit and farting, real awe inspiring that image, mastermind in deed!

It was a real bad day for Donald on all fronts today, it's becoming clear to everybody just how fucked he is. Looks like there's a reason Desantis is getting uppity, he smells blood in the water. Someone is gonna indict Trump soon, but it won't be the feds, Garland is clearly reluctant to go after Trump and company, perhaps he figures the 1/6 panel and the state cases will do most of his work for him. The forged electors should force his hand though, with the democrats and the AGs in a half dozen states referring forged electors cases to him. This was a conspiracy on par with the capitol insurrection and like it, was part of a larger seditious plot.

I don’t think Garland is reluctant to go after trump at all. Didn’t you post the Glenn kirschner video that talked about his methodical approach and how he worked with different state and federal agencies as a prosecutor in the Timothy McVeigh case?

Chairman of Jan. 6 House Panel: Trump Records Will Be Released Publicly
The House Jan. 6 select committee plans to release records from former President Donald Trump's White House, the panel's chairman said Thursday.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said potentially hundreds of pages of records will be made public, Bloomberg reported.

"As soon as we can go through them, and figure out what we can and can't — we will do it," Thompson said, according to Bloomberg.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected Trump's request to block the release of White House records sought by the partisan panel — comprised of Democrats and two anti-Trump Republicans — investigating events surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol.

Thompson's comment about the records being made public reaffirms the belief that Democrats hope to keep the Jan. 6 events on voters' minds as long as possible before November's midterm elections.

One committee aide recently told Axios the panel was mulling prime-time, televised hearings on the incident in an attempt to "reach as many people as we can.”

Thompson gave no timetable for the records' release, and added the panel was "anxiously awaiting" receipt of about 800 pages of material being turned over by the National Archives.

The White House records include visitor and call logs, emails, draft speeches, and handwritten notes.

Committee members have focused on Trump and his allies during their investigation, and have said Trump's records are key to their probe.

"That was one of the initial requests that we made as a committee, because that’s a storehouse for a lot of the information we need," Thompson said.

Trump allies facing subpoenas from the committee have maintained that the lack of GOP-appointed members is evidence the committee is not operating properly.

"Does anyone want to go faster?"

so trumps records will be released to the public? well after the mid-term 2022 nov elections.....
so will the records of pelosi's, schumer's, swalwell's, adam schiff's, nadler's and many many more crooked democrats records be released to the public. the house and the senate will be controlled by the republicans and turn around is fair play. many investigations will expose the democrats. jail hopefully will follow......

Moosieman
Ok Benny When Republicans take back power they should create a 2020 riots commission. Release every text, phone records, financial records of every elected Democrat.

MaxWorth
This is totally political maneuvering by the Democrats in a desperate attempt to salvage the massive collateral damage suffered due to the disastrous policies and failures of the Biden Administration.
Rest assured any records deemed advantageous for the Democrats will be documents taking out of context, piecemealed together towards achieving maximum discrediting effect, and released close to the Mid term election date.
Democrat supporters...
Your Party thinks you are all totally Stupid and so Blindsided by TDS, that you will continue to believe everything they have been feeding you since 2016.

imahogg
Translation: the parts of Trump's records that the kangaroo court THINK will put Trump in a bad light will be released publicly...get ready for a ton of scurrilous misinformation taken completely out of context in an attempt to smear Trump before the 2022 elections...

Bill Halcott
Here we are on the verge of war with Russia, and these lying thieving democrat clowns are worried about bogus investigations into the Trump Administration? You can't print what I think.

pudhead
All of the congress and senate need their 1/6 texts records released, especially Pelosi and her cartel. Correct, fair is fair.

He is reluctant and it can be seen in his behavior, I didn't say he wouldn't do Donald, just that he wants someone else to do him first, before the 2022 election. Garland will work his way up the food chain and Trump will be on trial for seditious conspiracy in 2023 or 2024. In theory Donald could be charged with hundreds of crimes, but that wouldn't look too good, he will only be charged with federal crimes in conjunction to others they want to nail for conspiracy. Seditious conspiracy and insurrection look like near certainties, if Garland was going by the book, he would have thrown it at Trump already.
