Taunting his opponent in the constitutional crisis of the century, Robert Barr asked at a law enforcement event where both appeared if House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "brought the handcuffs" referring to his defiance of a House subpoena for his testimony and documents, including the unredacted Mueller report. Speaker Pelosi, ever polite, smiled and told Barr the House Sergeant at Arms is available if an arrest is needed. There also happens to be a small jail in the bowels of the Capitol building.
Don Veto's gang took their unconstitutional defiance of congressional oversight to new levels this week. According to a Washington Post reporter the Very White House told the House Judiciary Committee that it has instructed 81 allies and associates not to comply with subpoenas for documents issued by Congress. Attorneys for 'King of Debt' Trump wrote Chairman Nadler that the requests were invalid because they were a "do over" of the Mueller investigation and were therefore not a valid exercise of congressional power limited to legislative purposes, but were simply an effort to "harass political opponents" . Their warped view of the Constitution means that no organ of government can hold a president responsible for wrongdoing committed while in office--a blanket immunity from prosecution enjoyed by banana republic dictators. The Justice Department is handcuffed by a self-imposed policy not to indict a sitting president, created in an attempt to protect Richard Nixon and his cronies from accountability for their crimes.
Chairman Nadler called the regime's position "preposterous". He told CNN, “This is the White House claiming that the president is a king. This is
the White House saying that the Justice Department said they can’t hold
the president accountable because you can’t indict a president and now
they’re saying neither can Congress. So the president is totally
unaccountable and above the law." He went on to say that the House is considering enforcement avenues including more contempt citations and fines for disobedience to issued subpoenas. Attorney General Barr's contempt citation has passed to the floor of the House for a vote. Nadler would not rule out extreme measures to obtain wanted documentation. Note that one of the articles of impeachment passed out of committee against Nixon was for his regime's refusal to obey congressional subpoenas.
