1. Let's Play A Game. Which Ones Will Actually Show Up?

Or maybe they'll "engage" with the committee, to buy themselves some time.

6. So what's your solution?

8. Inherent Contempt

But that's not going to happen, because we wouldn't want to enrage the other side.

I guess the solution is just to accept the fact our Democracy is a complete joke, and that crime pays. Maybe next time their little insurrection will be a success, and then we'll be in great shape.

2. My guess is Civil Enforcement will be the tool the committee uses to enforce compliance.

It's do-able, but the down-side is it takes a long damn time to adjudicate.

Use of its Inherent Contempt Power could be more effective and quicker-acting, but there's a HUGE public relations downside to using it as the TX GOP found out in 2003 when they sent the Texas Rangers to round up the Democrats in Ardmore who were then avoiding quorum.

On the PR side, it's a coin-toss and I don't like those odds less than a year out from mid-terms.

3. Let's have a look at that binder! nt

4. All of them will refuse to comply, I'm sure.

5. How many will face consequences for not showing up?

Zero I think.

7. Kick and rec for Trump's secret pals.

9. The toothful or toothless kind? n/t
