Will McGahn be held in contempt? Will they arrest him? Or did Trump win another battle here and effectively shut down the Dems?

Think was going to happen? At some point the Dems are going to have to take a stand...for something.

Why issue a subpoena in the first place? Nadler must make an example of one of these criminals.

Love this guy, but, look alive bro. Maybe someone with a bit more edge? I don't know. Just seems like he's not looking too good. If he's got other issues he's dealing with, maybe it's time for Jamie Raskin or Pat Cicillini (Sp) to take over the Chair?

I hope to be wrong.

The letter sent under his signature last night seems strong and good. But they should have sent the gendarmes after McGahn this morning.
