No matter how well she explained herself, voters believed the whole \"where there's smoke, there's fire\" thing.",
">\n\nThat is fair.",
">\n\nTime to see if Republicans care about government officials ignoring subpoenas now.",
">\n\nHe already set the president that subpoenas can be ignored. I would remind him, what goes around comes around.",
">\n\nExcept we’re ignoring subpoenas now, remember?",

">\n\nMy only response would be a request that Gym remind me of the specific excuses he used to avoid complying with a subpoena himself.\nI would then “study” those excuses as long as I needed to.",
">\n\nYes. There likely is at least some written communication between Gym/his lawyers and the Jan 6 committee providing his excuse for not complying with the subpoena. Throw the language back at him.",
">\n\nBy precedent at by Republicans, a sitting president can ignore any subpoena.",

">\n\nEveryone should show up, swamp the witness list, and take the 5th on every question.",
">\n\nLOL! Does Gym Jordan think he has valid subpoena powers? Isn’t he part of the party that dismantled them last term?",
">\n\nAnd I hope they treat subpoenas the way Gym Jordan treats subpoenas.",
">\n\nWhy should anyone have to honor a supeona of a GOP sham investigation thats only purpose is to gaslight and rile up the maga crowd over an issue that doesn't exist. DOJ is looking into people threatening violence against elected school boards/city council members, who should be held accountable. The GOP magas in congress are using their lies to conduct an illegitimate investigation wasting everyones time and our tax payer dollars. There should be a legitimate issue for all investigations, not issues they make up, like MTG's badgering witnesses with her stupid claim that an elementary school in Illinois received over 5 billion dollars in Covid relief to teach CRT, and stating like it's fact that Covid money was being spent on drag queen story time. No one should have to be subjected to such ignorant idiot questioning.",
">\n\nNow, I don’t like the tit for tat. But I think they should do everything, verbatim, that the Trump republicans did. With addendum stated that “All will comply, after a law is passed to guarantee future cooperation “. If we have learned one thing from Trump, it’s that if it isn’t clearly a law, he will break it.",
">\n\nGym the one who ignored the college sports abuse.",
">\n\nWhy would anyone respect a subpoena from a guy who doesn't believe he needs to respond to them himself?",
">\n\nStill can’t believe this douche bag is a leader of anything.",
">\n\nThis is what these morons do when the country is in dire need of intelligent leadership. \nWay to go red hatted morons. You must be making Putin proud because you're certainly doing nothing for us.",
">\n\nWhat a waste of taxpayers' money. What exactly is JJ's committee investigating? This is probably at best a low level investigation by the FBI and does not rise to any immediate national problem.",
">\n\nHow about this.... the Democrats should say they won't honour any subpoenas until the Republicans pass legislation, that gets passed in the Senate without filibuster, that makes these congressional subpoenas enforceable with serious consequences for ignoring them. Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",
">\n\nReally? What a waste of time, yes the Democrats went after Trump for January 6th but if the tables we're turn Biden would be in jail and not running for office again.",
">\n\nJordan sent a subpoena to Garland. At least he's motivating Garland to accelerate DOJ's investigation of Jordan's involvement in the insurrection.",
">\n\nThe subpoenas make it clear he is trying to find out what the DOJ knows about the GOP, and their investigations into January 6th, fake electors, etc.",
">\n\nPersonally I would comply and make them look like shit on the record .",
">\n\nThey will call be ignored... Another waste of taxpayers money.... At a time when unemployment is the lowest in almost 50 years...",
">\n\nGym Jordan, first question: Mr. President, do you like movies about gladiators?",
">\n\nI hope they ignore it.",
">\n\nI wouldn’t ignore it.\nI would ask Gym, specifically, to explain why he thinks his subpoena is more valid than the ones he personally ignored.\nIn his view, are there separate sets of laws—and distinctly different “standards” which depend strictly upon one’s party affiliation?",
">\n\nWhat a joke",
">\n\nAnother two years of chewing on this nothing burger....",
">\n\nIgnore all requests. Claim executive privilege. .",
">\n\nJordan is defending terrorists who threatened violence against teachers. What a world we live in.",
">\n\nI'm sure the Biden Administration will get right on that with all the diligence Jordan gave the judiciary committee when it issued his subpoena during the January 6th investigation.",
">\n\nSo appear before his ludicrous committee and respond to everyone one of his questions with questions why he supported an insurrection and throw a curve ball every so often by asking when did he quit abusing OSU athletes.",
">\n\nIn my opinion he’s not a legitimate member of congress given his J6 stance.",
">\n\nRepublicans are now fully entrenched in being sexless idiots who just drool because they have nothing to offer humans except bitching, crying and being useless replaceable losers.",
">\n\nnobody would ever argue otherwise, including idiots like ted Cruz who run and cry because they are absolutely amoral and useless.",
">\n\nThis is what you get when there is no accountability.",
">\n\nFAFO\nSomething something glass houses Gym. This pendulum comes around and goes around. Biden and his team are pretty politically savvy.",
">\n\nIgnore.",
">\n\nGetting right to work combating inflation, I see.",
">\n\nEvery response to each one of these subpoenas should be — Sorry, you’re a pedophile enabler. We don’t recognize your subpoena."

Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long.

They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere.

All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same.

That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere.

All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same.

That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same.

">\n\nNow, I don’t like the tit for tat. But I think they should do everything, verbatim, that the Trump republicans did. With addendum stated that “All will comply, after a law is passed to guarantee future cooperation “. If we have learned one thing from Trump, it’s that if it isn’t clearly a law, he will break it.",

">\n\nHow about this.... the Democrats should say they won't honour any subpoenas until the Republicans pass legislation, that gets passed in the Senate without filibuster, that makes these congressional subpoenas enforceable with serious consequences for ignoring them. Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

">\n\nHow about this.... the Democrats should say they won't honour any subpoenas until the Republicans pass legislation, that gets passed in the Senate without filibuster, that makes these congressional subpoenas enforceable with serious consequences for ignoring them. Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long.

">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

The GOP magas in congress are using their lies to conduct an illegitimate investigation wasting everyones time and our tax payer dollars. There should be a legitimate issue for all investigations, not issues they make up, like MTG's badgering witnesses with her stupid claim that an elementary school in Illinois received over 5 billion dollars in Covid relief to teach CRT, and stating like it's fact that Covid money was being spent on drag queen story time. No one should have to be subjected to such ignorant idiot questioning.",

">\n\nHow about this.... the Democrats should say they won't honour any subpoenas until the Republicans pass legislation, that gets passed in the Senate without filibuster, that makes these congressional subpoenas enforceable with serious consequences for ignoring them. Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long.

That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful.

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

I hope dems show up and answer every single question and comply with every single LEGAL investigation. If they get a subpoena, comply. The law is the only thing keeping us in a society. Republicans are WRONG when they don’t comply.
It’s like Hillary showing up and answering bullshit for hours and all of them just doing whatever the crap they want. I know dems don’t have the same marketing success that the GOP does , but doing the right thing when it’s hard it what makes someone good. Not when it’s easy.
Edit: I’d also like to see the questions and answers. Like during Judge Jackson’s confirmation hearing, the questions they were asking were so stupid and transparent.

Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long.

As initially satisfying as it would be to simply have the subpoenas ignored, that is probably not good to do for many of the reasons people here have given.
There are many already tested (by Republicans) ways of frustrating and delaying until we have a new Congress. One would be responding with any of the same language the Republicans' lawyers used to excuse their failure to respond.
Delay, delay, delay. Overly broad is one excuse. Lack of legislative purpose is another.
Examine the language in the subpoena. If the name of the person identified in the subpoena is not exactly the correct person who should have been served, or if the name was misspelled, give that as one of the reasons for noncompliance. Ask for extension after extension because searching for the records is a Herculean task. Ask for more money for staffing to conduct the records review.
Examine the phrasing.
a) If the subpoena demands all documents referencing investigating all parents or protestors (that is a Q conspiracy which has been debunked), then the correct response would be "none". No need to provide any documents.
b) If there is a serial list of demanded documents either with or without an Oxford comma, respond in the way that would most frustrate Gym. Arguing over the Oxford comma should be good for a few months.
c) Dribble documents slowly. I think a primary reason that DOJ did nothing about Meadows is that he did provide some documents and then "negotiated" (in bad faith I'm sure) for many months. So he sort of complied which would have made a messy case for DOJ unlike Bannon and that other jabbering whackadoodle who simply did not comply at all. | [

">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

I know dems don’t have the same marketing success that the GOP does , but doing the right thing when it’s hard it what makes someone good. Not when it’s easy.\nEdit: I’d also like to see the questions and answers. Like during Judge Jackson’s confirmation hearing, the questions they were asking were so stupid and transparent. It’s fun to see it so brazenly obvious propaganda right in front of us. And further solidifies my opinion on anyone who is still dumb enough to fall for it.",
">\n\nWith Jordan & subpoenas, I would agree to comply immediately after he does…unfortunately, the House subpoenas from 2022 will not be enforced now.",
">\n\nAs initially satisfying as it would be to simply have the subpoenas ignored, that is probably not good to do for many of the reasons people here have given.\nThere are many already tested (by Republicans) ways of frustrating and delaying until we have a new Congress. One would be responding with any of the same language the Republicans' lawyers used to excuse their failure to respond.\nDelay, delay, delay. Overly broad is one excuse. Lack of legislative purpose is another.\nExamine the language in the subpoena. If the name of the person identified in the subpoena is not exactly the correct person who should have been served, or if the name was misspelled, give that as one of the reasons for noncompliance. Ask for extension after extension because searching for the records is a Herculean task. Ask for more money for staffing to conduct the records review. \nExamine the phrasing. \na) If the subpoena demands all documents referencing investigating all parents or protestors (that is a Q conspiracy which has been debunked), then the correct response would be \"none\". No need to provide any documents.\nb) If there is a serial list of demanded documents either with or without an Oxford comma, respond in the way that would most frustrate Gym. Arguing over the Oxford comma should be good for a few months.\nc) Dribble documents slowly. I think a primary reason that DOJ did nothing about Meadows is that he did provide some documents and then \"negotiated\" (in bad faith I'm sure) for many months. So he sort of complied which would have made a messy case for DOJ unlike Bannon and that other jabbering whackadoodle who simply did not comply at all."

">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",
">\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\nThere should be one standard.\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.",
">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned. Until then, no compliance.",

">\n\nAs initially satisfying as it would be to simply have the subpoenas ignored, that is probably not good to do for many of the reasons people here have given.\nThere are many already tested (by Republicans) ways of frustrating and delaying until we have a new Congress. One would be responding with any of the same language the Republicans' lawyers used to excuse their failure to respond.\nDelay, delay, delay. Overly broad is one excuse. Lack of legislative purpose is another.\nExamine the language in the subpoena. If the name of the person identified in the subpoena is not exactly the correct person who should have been served, or if the name was misspelled, give that as one of the reasons for noncompliance. Ask for extension after extension because searching for the records is a Herculean task. Ask for more money for staffing to conduct the records review. \nExamine the phrasing. \na) If the subpoena demands all documents referencing investigating all parents or protestors (that is a Q conspiracy which has been debunked), then the correct response would be \"none\". No need to provide any documents.\nb) If there is a serial list of demanded documents either with or without an Oxford comma, respond in the way that would most frustrate Gym. Arguing over the Oxford comma should be good for a few months.\nc) Dribble documents slowly. I think a primary reason that DOJ did nothing about Meadows is that he did provide some documents and then \"negotiated\" (in bad faith I'm sure) for many months. So he sort of complied which would have made a messy case for DOJ unlike Bannon and that other jabbering whackadoodle who simply did not comply at all.",

">\n\nHow about this.... the Democrats should say they won't honour any subpoenas until the Republicans pass legislation, that gets passed in the Senate without filibuster, that makes these congressional subpoenas enforceable with serious consequences for ignoring them. Then the Democrats will obey the subpoenas, and there will be teeth there next time the Democrats hold the House. Of course, the Republicans will never agree to do this...",
">\n\nThe Republicans have already established the precedent which Democrats should follow.\nIf the right-wing extremists want to install changes they should demonstrate how they would hypocritically force compliance.",
">\n\nSure, but if it's just going to do break down into a situation where nobody ever feels like they should obey congressional subpoenas ever again, then long term, the power of Congress will be diminished and as will democracy and responsible government in the US. That plays into the hands of the Republicans. It would be in the Democrat's interests to try to use this situation to give more teeth to Congressional investigations. Short term that doesn't seem like a win to the Dems, but given there seems little they have to hide (at least compared to the GOP), they could play the long game since they will be back in power in the House before too long. And having enforceable subpoena power against Republicans who do have a lot to hide would be very useful. (Which is why I don't think there is any chance of Rs going for this, I'm just throwing the idea out there. Proposing it would at least force the Rs to fight against it, even further revealing they have no real interest in proper governance).",

">\n\n\nHasn’t the power of Congress already been diminished?\n\nYep, but it can continue to get worse.\n\nI think we should hear from Republicans reasons they think a subpoena is only valid if it requires compliance by Democrats.\n\nHow do you propose to make them give a real and direct answer to that question? They have no problem constantly deflecting from their blatant hypocrisy. Trying to catch them out with difficult \"questions\" goes nowhere. They just don't care how their inability to answer makes them appear to anyone with any standards. All they care about is maintaining power and appeasing their idiot supporters.\n\nNo matter what Democrats do now, the Republicans will revert shamelessly to their previous position when it’s convenient.\n\nWell exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting a strategy that might give more power to Congressional investigations, such that subpoenas will be enforceable and they won't have a choice to ignore them in the future. Again, I don't think it's possible as the Rs won't support it, but it would be a positive strategy for the Dems, and making them appear in favour of strengthening the institution that is Congress is a better look to their own supporters and independents than merely saying, well the Rs ignore congressional subpoenas, so we're just going to be the same. Better to say, we will ignore them until the Rs put stronger legislation in place.\n\nIt’s unfortunate that the Rs broke Congress, but we have no obligation to accept separate “standards” for each party.\n\nI didn't say the Dems should cave in, but that they should state they will only comply once Rs meet their requirement for pushing through the legislation I mentioned.

One would be responding with any of the same language the Republicans' lawyers used to excuse their failure to respond.\nDelay, delay, delay. Overly broad is one excuse. Lack of legislative purpose is another.\nExamine the language in the subpoena. If the name of the person identified in the subpoena is not exactly the correct person who should have been served, or if the name was misspelled, give that as one of the reasons for noncompliance. Ask for extension after extension because searching for the records is a Herculean task. Ask for more money for staffing to conduct the records review. \nExamine the phrasing. \na) If the subpoena demands all documents referencing investigating all parents or protestors (that is a Q conspiracy which has been debunked), then the correct response would be \"none\". No need to provide any documents.\nb) If there is a serial list of demanded documents either with or without an Oxford comma, respond in the way that would most frustrate Gym. Arguing over the Oxford comma should be good for a few months.\nc) Dribble documents slowly. I think a primary reason that DOJ did nothing about Meadows is that he did provide some documents and then \"negotiated\" (in bad faith I'm sure) for many months. So he sort of complied which would have made a messy case for DOJ unlike Bannon and that other jabbering whackadoodle who simply did not comply at all.",

So the Night Breeze (NB) has a lower operating force than the Baby Raccoon (BR), so less force required to press and it feels lighter. NB feels the sliiightest bit scratchy to me when compared to BR.

Turkish ministers lashed out at the United States and several European countries on Friday amid a controversy over Western security alerts and the closure of diplomatic missions.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu criticized Western capitals for failing to share concrete information about the security threat that prompted Western security alerts and the closure of European diplomatic missions.
Ankara amped up the rhetoric on Friday with Cavusoglu lashing out at those countries for failing to share "Concrete information" on details of the security threats cited in alerts.
