The Senate Homeland Security Committee voted to authorize over three dozen subpoenas and depositions of Obama-era officials.



The Senate Homeland Security Committee voted to authorize over three dozen subpoenas and depositions of Obama-era officials involved in the 2016 Russia investigation into the Trump campaign.
The move allows the committee to issue notices for taking depositions, subpoenas, as well as request documents from those involved in the panel’s “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation.

Ah, you got 'em now. Be careful what you do during this. It may end up being very embarrassing for the Orange Deity.

Anyone want to take bets on how many of those that have been hit with subpoenas do a Lois Lerner and take the 5th?

They don’t have to take the 5th if they just ignore the subpoenas like half the Trump administration.

Remind me again who it was that Lois Lerner worked for, Colfax? Who Eric Holder worked for?

Obama.

What about it? You going to sit there and ignore the mountain of subpoenas ignored by the Trump administration?

 

[Oldestyle]

Of course most of the Obama Administration officials DIDN'T take the 5th...their approach was to simply lie to the American people!

You're referring to the "mountain of subpoenas" that the Democratically controlled House have been hitting the Trump Administration with since Trump took office? How CAN you ignore such a blatant example of abuse of power? We have separation of powers built into our system of government just so what Nancy Pelosi and her minions attempted to do doesn't take place! Congress has no right to simply subpoena virtually everyone who works in the Executive Branch looking for a crime! THAT is why that mountain of subpoenas was rightly ignored by the Trump Administration! If you have demonstrated that a crime has taken place...then and only then do you have the right to start subpoenaing documents and personnel from another branch of government! That tenet of law goes all the way back to Richard Nixon and the Watergate tapes!

They wouldn’t be sending subpoenas if the Trump administration abided by the traditions of voluntarily complying with congressional oversight to the degree that every administration has before.

Fighting Congressional requests used to be the exception, now it’s standard operating procedure. Trump does not respect oversight, and this is extremely damaging to our nation.

Actually the House cannot subpoena the Executive branch.
They have to get a court order subpoena.
The reason why they didn't do that was because no court would have done it.

Speaking of subpoenas.....

Homeland Security chief Chad Wolf is still refusing to answer subpoenas -- just today.........but for a Trumper, that's awesome....

Acting Homeland Secretary Chad Wolf defies subpoena and skips House hearing | CNN Politics

Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf was a no-show Thursday morning at a House hearing on threats to the US homeland after a feud between the department and the committee over scheduling.

But when one of their "Deep State boogeymen" get a subpoena -- its basically a conviction....

Trumpers are pathetic...

I've never seen Congress use their subpoena power against a Presidential Administration like the Nancy Pelosi House has done!

You're claiming the Obama Administration "complied" with requests from the Legislative Branch? Really, Colfax? That's laughable! Barry and his crew were the most secretive administration we've ever had. They literally ran entire departments of the Government through secret email accounts using aliases to hide what they were doing from Congressional oversight!

Here is what is going to happen......when the Trump era is over....

This will still be the truth....

And in a few more years -- folks like you will still insist on the black guy being the guilty one.......and you will keep being laughed at until you find something new to lie about...

It wasn't that long ago since folks like you stopped carrying water for Bush and his disaster of a presidency....

Absolutely backwards.

Congress is sending subpoenas for routine document requests that never needed subpoenas before. And those subpoenas are thrown in the trash. Congressional oversight is barely a concept with this administration. This is the most secretive administration we’ve ever had.

Nonsense. Congress does not need the judiciary to exercise their inherent power.

Nadler uses subpoenas as a propaganda tool.

D.C. Circuit Court ruling weakens House subpoena power - UPI.com

The power of U.S. House investigative committees to issue subpoenas was weakened Monday when a D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals three-judge panel ruled 2 to 1 that lawmakers need a new law to do so.

Cool. Let them testify under oath before the committee. We've already observed the Republican Senators to have been instructed by Moscow Mitch to testify and not ask open questions of those subpoenaed , and to interrupt with anger & attack the Democratic Committee Members who allow those subpoenaed to speak openly.

Whenever someone interjects pejoratives such as "Moscow Mitch" I understand that they have not reached the level of -being taken seriously.

That's laughable! What Trump Administration Department is being run through secret servers hidden in the Secretary of that Department's home like Hillary Clinton ran the State Department during the Obama Administration?

The Obama Administration set records for fighting Freedom of Information Act requests...they were BY FAR the most secretive administration the US has ever had...even after declaring that they would be the most transparent!

All of them for all we know. They don’t respond to congressional oversight so there’s no way to know.

Are you forgetting how Clinton’s server was found out by the public? It was the Obama administration complying with Congressional document requests. Something this administration doesn’t do.
