GOP will hit FBI, DOJ with 'full arsenal of constitutional weapons' if they don't comply with subpoena, Gowdy warns



House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy told "Fox News Sunday" that House Speaker Paul Ryan led a meeting Friday night with senior members of the DOJ and FBI, and made it clear that “there’s going to be action on the floor of the House this week if FBI and DOJ do not comply with our subpoena request.”

The House Judiciary Committee has requested more than a million documents from the FBI and DOJ relating to the Hillary Clinton email probe, the firing of former top FBI official Andrew McCabe, and reported surveillance of a Trump aide during the 2016 presidential election.

But Republicans have accused the DOJ and FBI of stonewalling and intentionally impeding their investigation, despite the agencies' claims that fulfilling the request requires a careful review of the sensitive documents.

Gowdy, R-S.C., said the GOP's action could involve "the full panoply of constitutional weapons available to the people’s house."

They really can't do much.

Of course they can. How silly of you.

 

[candycorn]

So the house and the DOJ are both run by Republicans.

And one is going to unleash holy hell on the other.

And this is 18 months or so into the Trump presidency.

Tell us again how long well the Republicans govern the country LOL

The House is more like the chicken hawk with each stunt.

The Right Wing wants to destroy the FBI to protect their Orange Fuhrer...

Ladies and Gentlemen and Androgynous Beings... this is what a cult looks like.

 

[TheOldSchool]

So they’ve completely abandoned their duty to serve as check and balance to the executive, and will openly help shield the executive from oversight

The DOJ needs brought to heel. This is governing well.

Like what? Subpoena them again?

 

[JoeB131]

Trump can fire Sessions, Rosenstein and Mueller tomorrow.

The problem is, he can't without it looking like a coverup.

 

[Rustic]

They really can't do much.

Can’t get any more corrupt than the deep state

Like what? Subpoena them again?

Congress can send a subpoena with Federal Marshals and if they refuse to take it can be forcibly escorted to Congress for a hearing.

When was the last time that happened?

 

[task0778]

The DOJ and FBI are Executive branch agencies, no? Doesn't Trump have the authority to order them to comply or get fired?
