On Tuesday, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin refused to appear and testify before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee about the disastrous U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, prompting the committee’s chair, New Jersey Democrat Senator Robert Menendez, to blast him for his non-appearance and threaten to subpoena Austin if he refused to testify in the near future.

Even if they do subpoena him he will refuse to answer on the basis of classified information.
Kevin in California, “Oh boy, threaten him with a subpoena. Nowadays, subpoenas are ignored and nothing happens to anyone who ignored them.” Subpoenas are not ignored. If a patriot ignores a subpoena see what happens.
No fan of Bill Barr, but do you recall his appearance before some house committee. The demonRats grilled his ass up and down, in and out. They were so disrespectful, rude. It was so disgusting. Can you imagine if Barr had decided he wasn’t going to show up?
He woulda been fried alive, that’s what!
