His Department HAS part of that evidence. It is not his place to say he won't provide the information to Congress. They are co-equal branches and he does not have more power than Congress.He's smart. He will wait till all the evidence one way or another is in.
Only a lefty loon like you would call that stone walling.

He is stonewalling and it makes him look guilty as sin. "I haven't read the transcript so I can't comment." He was IN on the call. Lying sack of shit is what he is. One of Trump's goons.
Except there is no criminal act. There isn't even any evidence to support the accusation that a crime was committed.executive privilege is not viable when used in the course of an illegal act.
Which is why it was illegal for Biden to extort the UkraineIn actuality, even if they managed to enforce a subpoena, Pompeo and his staff can answer every question with, "Executive Privilege", thereby creating the exact same outcome.Actually, it kinda is.Given that the second reason is not founded or grounded in any fact, that would require much more clarification from the Congress. A good reason to do as I said.Well, the first reason that is silly is that the impeachment inquiry exists to find out what charges, if any, should be brought.
The second reason it is silly is that the requests from the committee have been very specific:
"related to reported efforts by President Trump and his associates to improperly pressure the Ukrainian government to assist the President's bid for reelection."
The third reason is that Pompeii has no such rights to demand any of that. His refusal is only provided cover by the fact that the DOJ will not prosecute him for defiance, and that the Congress is not yet to the point of invoking their powers regarding inherent contempt.
He has every right to refuse an improper subpoena.
The impeachment farce should already have an agenda with a detailed listing of reports from Justice of an independent investigation listing the concerns and wrong doings of the President in order to justify the impeachment. They have none of that and Pompeo is under no obligation to aid them in their witch hunt
Congress is not above the Executive branch.
I don't know how much you know about our Govt. history..but there have been many confrontations between Congress and the White House..Congress has won almost all of them.
If Congress were to issue a warrant..they would find someone to serve it..and then Trump can use his pardon power....and Congress can re-issue the supeana..and arrest the person again...and again...and again.
executive privilege is not viable when used in the course of an illegal act. if donny is proven to have bribed or used extortion in that phone call then there is no EP.
You mean you never saw the video where Biden gave the Ukraine 6 hours to comply or swim with the fishes....Which is why it was illegal for Biden to extort the UkraineIn actuality, even if they managed to enforce a subpoena, Pompeo and his staff can answer every question with, "Executive Privilege", thereby creating the exact same outcome.Actually, it kinda is.Given that the second reason is not founded or grounded in any fact, that would require much more clarification from the Congress.

What would they testify about? They've already been investigated and no wrongdoing was found.The Ukraine..... Look just face it I am right, Nancy said that she was opening an official impeachment investigation, but never did as this begins with a vote to open the investigation which the dems would easily win, however Nancy never did this.About what?Answer Congress could vote to open an official inquiry but then Joe and hunter would be called to testifyThe question is "what can congress do about it?".
And likely never will
Look kid I know Nancy said she opened a formal inquiry but she lied as a formal inquiry begins with a vote.You mean you never saw the video where Biden gave the Ukraine 6 hours to comply or swim with the fishes....Which is why it was illegal for Biden to extort the UkraineIn actuality, even if they managed to enforce a subpoena, Pompeo and his staff can answer every question with, "Executive Privilege", thereby creating the exact same outcome.

They can do nothing but bitch and moan.The question is "what can congress do about it?".
How about they start doing their jobs and stop wasting all this time and money?The question is "what can congress do about it?".
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're just ignorant to the facts.ummmm.... no. you are either mistaken due to the fake news you swallow - or you are deliberately lying. a formal inquiry needs no 'vote' - it is only to show that the speaker is on board with INVESTIGATING. votes are required within the judiciary committee to go ahead with impeachment proceedings & articles of impeachment are drawn up - then it goes to the floor.
He would have to start before he could stop.How about they start doing their jobs and stop wasting all this time and money?The question is "what can congress do about it?".
How be Trump stops violating the law and the Consitution, and stops inviting foreign governments to involve themselves in US elections.
A formal inquiry begins with a vote, in fact the vote is what makes it formal vs informal. Got that little froggyLook kid I know Nancy said she opened a formal inquiry but she lied as a formal inquiry begins with a vote.You mean you never saw the video where Biden gave the Ukraine 6 hours to comply or swim with the fishes....Which is why it was illegal for Biden to extort the Ukraine

There's a reason all serious impeachment proceedings had an actual vote to start the formal Impeachment Inquiry. That reason is that rules changes the hearing to a more formal legal hearing, as opposed to what they have now, which is a run of the mill oversight hearing with a name meant to pacify the haters like you.
You do understand the separation of powers, right.His Department HAS part of that evidence. It is not his place to say he won't provide the information to Congress. They are co-equal branches and he does not have more power than Congress.He's smart. He will wait till all the evidence one way or another is in.

So..the stonewalling begins..will it work? Or..will it just pour gas on an already burning fire?
I sense Pompeo may be panicking just a bit..after all...what harm could there be..if all was on the up and up?
Pompeo says State Dept. officials won’t show up for scheduled impeachment depositions this week
"Secretary of State Mike Pompeo fired a broadside at House Democrats on Tuesday, saying State Department officials scheduled to appear this week before committees conducting the impeachment inquiry would not be made available until “we obtain further clarity on these matters.”
The refusal, in a letter to House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot L. Engel (D-N.Y.), described the demand for depositions by five officials who played a role in U.S. relations with Ukraine as “an attempt to intimidate, bully, and treat improperly, the distinguished professionals of the Department of State.”
The statements came as Pompeo’s role in the Ukraine investigation broadened with reports that he was a participant in the July 25 call by President Trump to Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, which led to the impeachment investigation.
Before that report, first published by The Wall Street Journal, Pompeo had brushed off questions about the incident, saying last week that he had not yet read the transcript of the telephone call released by the White House, or the whistleblower complaint that it sparked.
The committee, along with the House Intelligence and Oversight panels, had requested the five officials to appear for depositions this week and next, to begin Wednesday with Marie Yovanovitch, who was recalled by Pompeo as ambassador to Ukraine in May, prior to the end of her tour.
Other State Department officials scheduled for depositions include Kurt Volker, the administration’s special envoy to Ukraine, who resigned last week; Deputy Assistant Secretary George Kent; U.S. ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland; and State Department Counselor T. Ulrich Brechbuhl."
