DOJ: No, Nadler, Former WH Counsel Is Not Legally Required to Testify For Your Mueller Do-Over
townhall.com ^ | 5/20/19 | Katie Pavlich

The White House sent a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler Monday afternoon informing him former White House Counsel Don McGahn will not be complying with a subpoena for testimony.

"At the President’s direction, the White House has been completely transparent with the Special Counsel’s investigation. The Special Counsel received more than 1.4 million documents and hours and hours of interviews from White House officials, including more than 30 hours from former Counsel to the President, Don McGahn. The Democrats do not like the conclusion of the Mueller investigation – no collusion, no conspiracy, and no obstruction – and want a wasteful and unnecessary do-over," White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders released in a statement...

...Shortly before the White House announcement, the Department of Justice issued a 15-page memo explaining the legal precedent for why the Trump administration is capable of keeping McGahn from testifying.

The Left supposes if they keep the investigation going someone will be subject to a process crime somewhere along the way.

The leftist judiciary is completely out of control. It is actively aiding the Democrats in their coup attempt(s).

I can see no possible way this is going to end non violently.

And it will be appealed so nobody will be getting anything for months, if not years.

I am tired of conservatives who roll over, play nice, and take it up the tailpipe (figuratively speaking)

That we have a President who does NOT do that is a hopeful sign. We don’t have to adopt their tactics, but...we don’t have to play by their rules, either.

Trump was right to tell them to stick it where the sun doesn’t shine.

I thank the Good Lord above at least several times a day for President Trump and pray for his and his family’s safety.

I am convinced the Lord saved our country from doom (read: Killary) by choosing President Trump to be our president.

Dems will find an Obama judge to rule that McGahn has to testify...just like the judge that ruled Trump has to turn over his financial records for the past 6 years.
