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.

jesus.

Did you miss the last 20 years of executive orders and various other bullshit?

and NOW you want accountability?

TDS, indeed, fren.

Were there Obama officials that refused congressional subpoena?

But but....in reverse.

Nice work.

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...

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.

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.

We are talking about the release of records and compelling testimony not the specific program. If you want to argue about the practice of gunwalking start a thread. BTW - guns don't kill people, people do...

A bigger threat than, say, surreptitiously stealing the Democratic Nomination from Bernie Sanders in 2016?

Yes, the sitting president pushing for power that cannot be checked is more dangerous than the DNC pushing debates to Friday nights to keep viewership down.
