Former FBI Director James Comey is challenging a subpoena from House Republicans for his closed-door testimony in federal court.

First that blasi Ford woman in the Cavanaugh hearing, now comey, seems like anyone who gets a subpoena from Congress now sets the terms by which they will honor it. It’s time for some US Marshals to go grab these turds just like they would one of us who ignored a subpoena.
Thank you for stating the bottom line. I have had enough of elites not having to live under the same rules as we do

And he knows that congress can hang him now. They know exactly what questions to ask him in regards to a whole lot of illegal activities he was involved in.

YET, he had no problem with conducting closed-door testimony when it came to people he subpoenaed.

A delaying tactic. Just a tactic to delay the inevitable until he has a more friendly House Judiciary.

Why should a federal judge have anything to say about this??? It’s a delaying tactic. Should work too. Unfortunately.

He wants to do the same old. I cannot answer this question in public due to classification. Also T Gowdy said he surely didn’t question his Subjects in public.

No he’s just delaying until the democrats take over.

Challenge it all he wants.
If he refuses to show, send Federal Marshals to DRAG his ass in there in handcuffs and leg irons.

My only problem with this is why the hell didn’t we do this months ago?
To: Trump_the_Evil_Left
What’s the problem. He can pick and choose what to leak in a closed-door session.

and, others to follow his testimony would already know what he said. Makes getting the stories aligned, much easier.
Just sayin’...

Let them videotape the interview behind close doors and edit the classified portions. Then air it on C-SPAN.
