Jail him for contempt. Let’s see it.
To: Red Badger
They don’t need to refer to the DOJ. Congress has inherent plenary power to arrest this clown all on their own.
And they know it.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that he’s a no show now that Kevin the doorman is no longer there to protect him.
To: Lurker
Yep, punting to Garland, who will not prosecute any Democrats in any real manner, isn’t an excuse. Send the Sergeant At Arms to get this lawbreaker and let him rot in the Capitol jail.

Have him arrested and put in the congressional jail until he agrees to testify. Stop playing games with these people.

Stop his paychecks. He will check-in very quickly.

Maybe Elvis paid Seth Rich a visit.
To: Lurker
I agree. Have the sergeant at arms jail him and treat him exactly like the J6 prisoners including all forms of torture.

In any case, lawmakers would first have to vote on contempt within the committee, and then they would hold off on taking a full floor vote until a speaker has emerged. Another option for the committee could be to sue Chan for failing to appear. The senior GOP aide indicated the committee would escalate the matter and that contempt was an option but that committee members would first need to confer about it.The House's first test under Speaker Jordan....

His no appearance is not an act of his own decisions. He is being handled here. These are federal agency employees. They don’t look left or right without management approval, particularly after being served a subpoena to testify before congress. He was told not to give testimony by FBI lawyers.

Gee. When Pete Navarro did this under advisement from the President, they arrested, tried and convicted him.
Guess we have another member of the Chosen Ones here.
Or maybe he headed home to Hong Kong, visiting granny.

True congress’s true power is the power of the purse.
Cut there budget and things well happen
To: Red Badger
I’m sure the DOJ will be right on this. You know Republicans have another tool at their disposal. They can simply not fund the FBI.
To: blackdog

That’s what he’ll claim if he’s ever prosecuted for election interference.

Elvis Chan? You can’t make this crap up. The FIB is getting goofier by the day. I listen to Elvis Chan on Sirius XM.
