The January 6 House elect committee investigating the insurrection has subpoenaed Donald Trump for documents and testimony. So predictable, Trump filed suit to avoid having to testify, making several arguments as to why the subpoena is invalid.
This video discusses why each of Trump claim regarding the congressional subpoena is wrong and ultimately will be rejected by the courts. However, as we have come to learn, Trump's ultimate goal in filing lawsuit after lawsuit is delay. He seems to weaponize the delay inherent in the civil litigation process in an attempt to fun out the click. So perhaps the Mose important question is . . . will the courts let him get away with it? - Glenn Kirschner - 11/13/2022.
Justice matters.
(9,956 posts)The J6 hearings should have started way earlier in 2021. And that "expedited" option should have been created around the same time.
So once again, hair furhair will end up successful in weaponizing the stoopid delays wasting working-class taxpayers' money down the drain due to ineffective bureaucracy embedded into the system since centuries to favor the lobbying-class of the ruling class...
Bravo.

(257,433 posts)They gave a rundown on the prison sentences of others who also stole classified documents. And there weren't boxes full, nor were they given second, third and fourth chances to "return" them - they were tried, convicted and jailed with no time wasted!
Not to mention, despite the amazing job that the January 6th Committee has done - and I understand is currently still doing - three essential members will not be there as of this January - two years later - and they were already expected to be done by then. That's why it's essential to act on their recommendations now.
