Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows (R-NC) and fellow GOP Rep Jim Jordan (R-OH) are set to introduce a resolution giving the DOJ 7 days to turn over documents owed to Congress.

Rep. Jordan then ripped DAG Rosenstein for threatening Congressional staff members. “It’s time for House Leadership to stand up.”

Jim Jordan tweeted: Rod Rosenstein threatened congressional staff. When the bully picks on your little brother, you have to respond. It’s time for House Leadership to stand up.

Seven days.

Is the definition of “days” Washington DC day(minus recess and vacation and time to flirt with pages and go to lunch with lobbyists)
or
Book of Genesis days in the Bible?

7 days? And then what can or will they really do?

If nothing happens, then they'll go nuclear and send DOJ a stern letter.

“No, we REALLY mean it this time!” HA HA HA HA

Any mature adult knows you don’t keep issuing new red lines to an openly rebellious child. They soon learn you are NOT serious and will continue to ignore you and your demands.

The DOJ obstructionists have NO intention of EVER obeying the law. They laugh at you and mock you, Congress. Another one of your deadlines....HA HA HA HA!

NOW what...another new deadline? HA HA HA HA.

They can cut off DOJ funding at any time.
That would get their attention.

The deep state has a nickname for politicians, TOURISTS.

They’ll just wait them out.

Can we somehow organize a million man march on DC and burn the f-—ing place to the ground?

I think the only way to truly get FedGov’s undivided attention is to lob artillery rounds into one of their forts.

Contempt. There is probably some sort of notice requirement before they can file actual charges, hence the seven days.

Here is the procedure for a contempt charge. Note, it starts in committee, but requires a majority vote in the full Congress or Senate.

Another deadline, followed by another, etc. This one might be voted down in the House and that would end the farce of the House repeatedly being gelded. Unless the House is willing to use real force, this is all hot air.
