Another Fail in Court for Trump

The federal judge overseeing former President Donald Trump's lawsuit against the Jan. 6 committee dismissed the case on Wednesday, ruling it was irrelevant after the panel withdrew the subpoena last week.
quotes: Trump declared his intent to sue the Jan. 6 committee shortly after it announced its plans to subpoena him, filing the lawsuit on Nov. 11 in an effort to block the committee from making him give his testimony.

The panel voted to subpoena Trump during its last public hearing of the year, one month before lawmakers released their 845-page report detailing their findings from their yearlong investigation into the Capitol riot. That report focuses on Trump himself and his actions leading up to the riot, seeking to tie the former president to the attack.

Time ran out. But most normal people believe Trump would've lost had Democrats held the majority, and had kept the sub-Committee going
 
The Committee got what they wanted.



What would that be, what exactly? A criminal referral on Trump to the DOJ? You do realize that the DOJ wasn't just sitting around waiting for this to then start their investigation. In fact, the DOJ could've indicted Trump without a single hearing.

"Losing" a case because the subpoena was withdrawn isn't a loss. It's there's no longer a legal reason to pursue the matter. How's that a fail in court?
