House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) on Sunday vowed to subpoena the Department of Justice (DOJ) this week if it does not provide Congress with documents related to the Russia investigation.

Appearing on Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” Goodlatte stated: “I think a lot of light can be shed on that if the documents we have been requesting for quite some time are made public.”

“So as a result of that, this week, if they’re not produced by tomorrow or Tuesday of this week, we are going to issue a subpoena to the Justice Department that expands upon the subpoena we issued earlier this year,” he continued.

Goodlatte’s comments followed a New York Times report that said Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein suggested wearing a wire during conversations with the president last spring. He also reportedly proposed recruiting Cabinet members to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office.

Stop all this crap. Subpoena the documents, bring a few individuals, like Rosenweasel to congress, have them testify under oath, and if they don’t respond with the documents that day, use the house jail, that is what it is there for. Why this interminable charade?

We’re going to issue a subpoena to force you to respond to the subpoena we issued earlier this year, and if you don’t respond to this current subpoena, we are going to have to issue another subpoena, and you had better respond to all of our subpoenas or you’ll force us to issue a lot of other subpoenas, and you are not going to like that, so...... pretty please?

They aren’t scared of you Bob. You or any other spineless jellyfish Republicans. If your going to subpoena something just grow a pair and do it. Enough with all the warnings.

And Bob is not running for re-election. He’ll be gone in January. Wish he was going to be around a little longer as House Judiciary Chair.

Why? What has he accomplished in this crisis besides strong words signifying nothing? DOJ is in violation of a subpoena for months. Do you know what sub Poena means? What has he done about it?

To hell with subpoenas, send in many men with guns. Don’t ask, just take.

Their spines are only for attacking genuine conservatives.

They are not cowardly, they are complicit.

They want us to think they are merely cowardly, so we will not accept that they are globalists with the same agenda as the Democrats.
