The House Oversight Committee filed a lawsuit Tuesday seeking enforcement of subpoenas it issued to Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and Attorney General Bill Barr as part of the committee’s investigation into the census citizenship question.
Hell yeah. The committees know they’ll win now, so they’re ready to start pushing outside of impeachment.
Regardless of impeachment, it will help in 2020 to put these people up there and make them explain their actions and expose their motives.
Yes! Get as many swamp creatures from under whatever rocks an rotten logs where they are hiding out, to gurgle their lies in public.
Barr should be sentenced to 200 years at Rikers
(after cooperating with authorities)
Methinks that Carolyn Maloney will do an admirable job of carrying on the fine work of the late Elijah Cummings.
I think you want the Harry Potter forum. That picture of a Dementor is out of place.
House Sues To Enforce Census Probe Subpoenas Of Ross, Barr
At first I thought it said “Subpoenas of Roseanne Barr.”
Not a surprise, the Democrats now have a court decision that backs up their right to have subpoenas followed. I suspect we will see a lot more of this now…they were probably waiting for this decision before moving forward on several fronts. This one is critically important, we really need to get to the bottom of how the Census was almost abused for Republican power, and then lay that case out for new regulations that make sure it cannot be used for partisan ends in the future.
I doubt either Ross or Barr will ever provide substantial testimony before the House. It will be months before legal rulings that apply to them get resolved, and if they do show up, they won’t ‘recall’ much when questioned.
I’m not saying the House shouldn’t press forward to compel them to appear, but it’s memos, texts, and career staffers that will shed the most light.
Exquisitely creepy looking.

I might have to print this for next year’s Halloween decorations. It will go along these in the front window.
Wilbur Ross could play Emperor Palpatine’s brother.
Then how about an overnight in the Metropolitan Correctional Center?
More “memory loss”? In Ross’s case, I’d actually believe it.
Aren’t there disbarrment and impeachment procedures against Barr that could result from his behavior on these issues, and then later the findings on these issues? We need everything we can to sidetrack that MFer.
Good! Keep the pressure on.
As ever, the SIGINT always gets you in the end.
Jesus! That face on Ross; has anyone checked to make sure he’s really still alive?
