Why McGahn should (and probably will) adhere to the request and testify

[nat4900]

...just because Democrats won small in 2018 doesn't make the votes idiots.

Democrats won the House with the largest midterms margin of all time ...


Democrats won House midterms by largest margin since Watergate

Damn, still listening to madcow I see. Trump waived privilege within the Executive Branch. NOT WITH CONGRESS. He is not obligated to give congress shit. Also McGhan resigned, he wasn't fired as WH counsel.

So feel free to spin the commie mslsd propaganda, no one is buying.

Well, ass kissing Tigger........how do you know that Maddow is not listening to me?.......And I'm happy that good minds may think together.

BUT, did you pull that little "new" interpretation of the executive privilege out of your striped ass??

Go read what the supreme court told Nixon about his attempts to prevent testimony before congress......

Now, I know you're one of my fans that follows me around responding to all my threads....>BUT, be better prepared next time

But, here, let me help you since your a bit slow.....


Nixon said that he did not have to give up these tapes because they were part of his "executive privilege." The Supreme Court did not agree with Nixon. The Supreme Court ruled that nobody is above the law and that presidents cannot use this idea to simply escape punishment.

Apples and oranges, with Nixon there was a real crime he was trying to cover up. Trump is resisting political abuse of power by congress. The courts have historically frowned on such political stunts. The commies in congress have been telegraphing their corrupt intent for more than 2 years.

I'm sure that Trump's lawyers are happily racking up those billable hours and, iof they're smart, also know that they don't stand a chance in hell to keep McHahn from testifying....

Don McGahn can prove to be the "new" John Dean for this latest GOP corrupt administration.

First, let's dispel the silly idea that "executive privilege" can be applied by Trump.........Once McGahn testified under oath to Mueller, that "privilege" was voided.

Second, McGahn was WH counsel and NOT Trump personal lawyer with duties to defend the "office of the presidency" and NOT Trump.......a subtle difference but very apropos.

Third, McGahn is basically being called a liar by Trump.....and unless he's a wimp, he should voice his own version of events.

Fourth, McGahn is in a difficult spot.......He ALREADY testified before Mueller HIS version of events (and no one knows yet if he also had documents backing it up) and CANNOT change his testimony before the House committee otherwise he risks "perjury" to Mueller.

Fifth, the congressional sergeant-of arms has full jurisdiction to arrest and detain anyone who is in contempt of congress......and with heavy fines and prison time if the stooge Barr were to do his job, the lawyers' fees and the trashing of one's reputation would be a heavy price.

Finally, Trump is also in trouble because he "fired" McGahn's law firm in representing the presidency...and THAT could easily be viewed as retaliation to a government witness which os against the law.....

(BTW, this latest Trump infraction in firing the law firm may constitute a "white collar crime" whose statute of limitations is 10 years....which places Trump in jeopardy until 2029.....which, of course, by then he would be a private citizen..........unless he pulls a Mussolini on our country.)

I see you are still relying on propaganda. Trump waived immunity so Congress has a right to investigate it as a part of their oversight. Trump can fight it and maybe delay it until after the elections. However people will wonder what he is hiding and this could be a major issue. No one is buying your garbage.

Oversight of what? What legislative purpose will it serve?

Of course, Trump and his lawyers can delay the process......BUT, not until the next election.......That may have been the case PRIOR to the SCOTUS decision on Nixon.......but now the proverbial "tigger" is out of the bag.

(BTW, did you know that the congressional sergeant of arms CAN arrest someone AND hand the individual over to the D.C. prosecutor and not directly to stooge-Barr.......thereby sowing more discord within the DOJ top heads and state/;oca; prosecutors.)

All federal prosecutors work for Barr dumb ass.

You pretend as though the reason Trump hasn’t been indicted has nothing to do with the the GOP simply choosing not to go after Trump. The democrats won’t bother with impeachment because they know the cowardly GOP won’t do jack shit regardless of what Trump is guilty of to move for indictment.

You pretend Trump is guilty of something just because your party are a bunch of Fascist losers.

Guilty of what? Collusion? Not liking a Witch Hunt?

Mueller had unlimited resources and found NADDA.

He found more than that. He found out that Manafort talked strategy and gave polling data to a business associate linked to Russian Intelligence. That gave them a roadmap for buying social media ads. Trump likely obstructed justice and might have been saved because his associates refused to comply with his orders.

Exactly what did Trump do that Article 2 of the Constitution didn't give him the authority to do?

Big font doesn't make it meaningful.

But fortunately for you... I'm here to help.

2018 Trump/GOP -40 House +2 Senate

2010 Obama/Dems -63 House -6 Senate

Since you're new to this, i'lI tell you it's worth noting that a Senator's actual voting power is much larger than a HoR's.


Do you want to do Clinton now?

 

[nat4900]

Apples and oranges, with Nixon there was a real crime he was trying to cover up. Trump is resisting political abuse of power by congress.

Same bullshit from Trump as Nixon tried...................

Yes......Mr. fuckhead......BUT, all prosecutors are NOT stooges for Trump........Let's have another "Saturday Night Massacre" and see hoe the public reacts to resignations when Barr imposes to prosecutors that they signed a "loyalty oath" NOT to the Constitution but to the orange buffoon.

Get an education before delving in these discussions.

This is not a discussion, at least not on your part. It's a deranged rant from the depths of your severe mental illness.

There, now it's your turn. Have fun.

Someday......when you finally pass your GED exam........You too may learn the difference between FLIPPING a congressional sear from the other party.......and MAINTAINING a seat.....

But.........this fucking thread is NOT about your DIVERSION...........Its about Trump STALLING subpoenas....LOL

 

[nat4900]

Trump is NOT fighting the subpoenas (since he MUST have something to hide and is scared shitless)......

What Trump is doing is DISREGARDING subpoenas.....which is tantamount of having NO respect for our rulle of laws.

Pretty much how a TYRANT disregards existing laws counting on his new version of "brown shirts" to save his fat ass.

The GOP flipped both House and Senate under Obama.. Both.. (That's YUGE)...Not just the House like Democrats did on their Small win.

You might want to quit now and start a thread on a subject you know something about.

No, hate boy.

Tyrants investigate political enemies searching for a crime.

Your anger is because Trump and America are winning.

Democrats' prayers for Collusion, a recession, high unemployment, a nuclear war with Nork, and for ISIS to grow like they did under Obama have all gone unanswered.

Maybe if you joined a party that likes it when America prospers you wouldn't be so miserable.

Is this true? Or you heard this on CNN?

You already made these inane points in previous thread you opened on exact same topic, but once you've been answered and once you've been asked questions, just like every other leftist, you simply run away with your tail between your legs and started a new thread.

I guess it's time for you to start new thread, eh shitstain?

Apparently you missed the "Unless Democrats are Butthurt" clause.

 

[DJT for Life]

It doesn't matter what they do or try to do.

McGahn will be kept from testifying because of Executive Privilege. The Dems will go to court.
Whomever loses in court will appeal. The SCOTUS will hear the case sometime in 2021.

It will sit out there and dominate the headlines, turning 2020 into a referendum on the Mueller report and Trump loses that.

How in the hell do you figure that.

The Mueller report is over. Horowitz's report is gonna nail the Obama Admin, FBI and DOJ, for illegal FISA abuses and violating
the civil rights of American citizens.

By September, the Socialists won't have one Independent in their corner

Wow, you really are clueless, what concerns me is you ignoring the FBI taking the investigation form field agents and moving it to headquarters so they could control the sham. What's good for the goose and all that. Also Mueller has completed his work, so there could be no equivalent to the Nixon firings.

I'm not sure how Trump can stop him from testifying.
1. McGahn is not currently a member of the executive branch.
2. Trump does not hold legislative power over Congress.
