With guns?

Haven't really thought this through much - but it seems to me the 5th Amendment was designed to prevent interrogation without indictment.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
Let alone whether Congress has authority to issue, compel or enforce its own subpoena.

Either way it will be interesting.

It's always the same headline
Debating, discussing, planning, etc.
I swear they never actually do anything -
They should absolutely be discussing it. I don’t think they have the power to do it but they should be making sure they don’t.
Trump is abandoning rule of law and the checks and balances that this country was built on. It’s dangerous and a threat to our democracy. Congress must explore all options to hold him accountable. -

So you consider it TDS to expect Trump officials to abide by congressional subpoenas because you think the past 3 presidential administrations have avoided accountability. Yet you can’t point to previous instances of administration officials wholesale refusal to testify when subpoenaed...maybe I should have just gone with calling your argument retarded like the previous poster...PurpleThrobber said:

That witch is batshit.

If there was fisa abuse I’d like to know about it. Trump kept saying he was going to declassify the entire thing - wonder why he didn’t? Trey Gowdy read the unredacted warrant and said the FBI did exactly what we would want them to do given the circumstances. Then again Gowdy is a flaming libtard so why should we trust him...pawz said:

I said I hadn't put much thought into it - see also shower happy ending - was busy this morning. Quite frankly, hadn't even framed an argument. Just gave people a couple links to contemplate. You know, critical thinking skills applied.
TDS kicks in immediately apparently.

The administration claimed executive privilege. The case eventually went to court and the administration had to turn over most of the records. I agree with you that was a case of stonewalling and it took time but eventually the rule of law won out.RaceBannon said:GDS said:

The rule of law did not win out. A scheme committed specifically to blame American gun owners for the problem it created in an attempt to sway public opinion so more gun control could be enacted. People died from those guns including Brain Terry a US Border Patrol agent.GDS said:

How fucking dumb can you be? Also noticed genius sledog voted this post up. Hillary had way more votes than Bernie. I'm not sure you call that stealing. However, if you still think that's stealing the nomination, I'm curious your thoughts on the electoral college as it relates to Trump's election.TurdBomber said:
