Pennsylvania Senator Doug Mastriano told One America News this week that he will ask the Pennsylvania Senate’s Intergovernmental Operations Committee he chairs to issue subpoenas to compel counties to cooperate with his effort to investigate the 2020 election.

On Friday Pennsylvania counties Tioga and Philadephia declined to participate in the Senate’s forensic election audit.

..... Snip.....

The Epoch Times reported:

A Pennsylvania senator is preparing to ask a panel he chairs for the authority to issue subpoenas to compel counties to cooperate with his effort to investigate the 2020 election.

“We’re eagerly awaiting my committee coming together when I can get a quorum, get everyone’s calendars matched up—it is summertime. As soon as I get a quorum, we will have a meeting, we will vote on subpoenas, and let the fun begin,” Pennsylvania Sen. Doug Mastriano, a Republican who chairs the state Senate’s Intergovernmental Operations Committee, said on One America News this week.

Mastriano initiated a forensic probe of the 2020 and 2021 elections in early July by sending requests for materials like ballots and asking for access to machines, to Tioga, York, and Philadelphia counties.

But officials in all three counties are refusing to comply voluntarily, setting up the need for subpoenas.

Mastriano set a deadline of July 31 in his letters to the counties

We are officially parked at light speed.

Republicans cannot connect, or identify blatantly obvious high crimes and treason, (including with many thousands dead due to globalist/dnc/uniparty strategies to overthrow the very US government they think they are a part of).

Democrats fabricate lies, treasonously frame, and use the full force of FedGov to persecute, and falsely prosecute innocent liberty loving Americans.

Maricopa County AZ is Republicans obstructing the audit.
Same thing in GA and PA.

The Big Steal was BIPARTISAN.

And so is the cover up.

The DOJ already sued Texas over Abbott’s executive orders issued last week. When did the “Trump” DOJ ever do anything in two days?

Here we are 9 MONTHS after the stolen election and the GOP is still playing audit footsie. Not. Good. Enough.

“The Big Steal was BIPARTISAN. And so is the cover up.”

Yes. All high level DC pols are a den of thieves, along with upper staff, lawyers and lobbyists.

Trump threatened their illicit income streams.

Stupid Republicans REFUSING to play by the rules the Democrats set. You don’t issue anything, you send the State Police to EXECUTE the WARRANT, SIEZE everything and ARREST ANYONE that interferes

Yes, they can be lawless and just ignore the subpoenas. And what are the repercussions? Probably none.

Umm, I think the state police work for the executive.... In PA that’s a Democrat.

Legislatures have no teeth.

People do. But then about 100 years ago “ presentment” became obsolete in favor of grand juries. Which are judicicial advice request if a prosecutor, or the executive.

Legislatures have only the people.
