House Judiciary GOP aides say there’s a meeting between House Judiciary Dems and the Justice Department this afternoon to discuss the path forward. Should know more afterward. GOP side was not invited to the meeting, per Republican aides.

It is time to begin Impeachment hearings.
#ImpeachmentNOW -
DOJ has issued a legal opinion (no surprise) that Barr can refuse this hearing because Dems want their counsel to ask some questions. This'll be the matrix for Trump admin's refusal to honor any subpoenas. Because Dems aren't using impeachment powers, it'll drag out in court.

If the
#TrumpAdmin keeps refusing to cooperate with any form of#congressionaloversight, the#Dems will hopefully hit some threshold that finally motivates them to draw up articles of#impeachment. But what is that magic threshold? - 1 réponse de plus

Let’s see if the Dems are willing to toss this stooge into a jail cell for defying the law.
-
Jail tossing is the province of the executive branch, specifically the Justice Dept. (Ya, I know there is a never-exercised option for house sergeant of arms ...) Barr is not that useful of a witness for Dem cause anyway. Let him be the face of the stonewall.

This is wrong. It's all power politics at this point. Dems have the power of the House. They need to use it to its fullest.
-
The "power of the House" is to investigate. They have that power with or without starting impeachment proceedings. Impeachment has 0% chance of removal. Its political effect is debatable within Dem party. I see more downside than opportunity. Repub pols/media get voice too.
-
Having people in front of a microphone having to answer questions is a powerful persuader, whether or not people are impeached, removed or convicted. See Watergate 1973-74.

He'll back out. Entire goal of this "admin" is to see how far they can get with violating the Constitution.

I think Trump will encourage him to stay away, and challenge the power of Congress. I’m sure Trump would get rid of Article 1 of our Constitution, if he could.
-
I hope the Democrats show up and do their jobs and not let him get away with it. They are underwhelming me thus far in how they hold this administration accountable.
