Robert Blair, senior adviser to White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, will not testify in the House impeachment investigation, Blair’s lawyer said on Saturday.
Showing absolute loyalty to the Orange Criminal Impeachiness?
Showing he has something to hide?
Showing he is unpatriotic?
Just another evidence of Obstruction of Congress!
Throw it on the obstruction of congress evidence pile, make a note by his name to pursue contempt charges and move on to the next witness.
So he’s a witness to his guilt? That’s how I read it
“In light of the clear direction he has been given by the executive branch, Mr. Blair has respectfully declined to appear and testify,” Ellerman said.
Despite the clear direction he has been given by the Legislative branch, Mr. Blair has disrespectfully declined to appear and testify, everybody else said.
We’re gonna need a bigger Gitmo…
Let’s git mo’ Gitmo.
Only when the cells reach the same overcrowded status as Trump’s border cages.
It’s interesting that all independent witnesses to Trump’s extortion willingly testify to it. All those in the know who are joined at the hip with Trump refuse to testify. They must not have anything good to say.
I don’t know that we need any more confirmation about what was said on that phone call than we already have, but sure, let’s subpoena him.
Let’s subpoena every last one of them and make them decide if they’re on America’s side or Trump’s. And if they ignore the subpoena, hold them accountable, even if it has to wait for a real DoJ.
Hoping for a pardon from the Orange Stain?
Privilege stops at criminality. You wonder what these guys think their fate is going to be.
I guess this means that the new rules are not adequate to protect the level of corruption. Gonna have to build one of those breachable walls that they have on the border to protect him. (I like the idea of him being behind iron bars.)
How about we subpoena the tape Trump is talking about here?
Time to send the US Marshalls to his front door.
And here it is another abuse of power and an intimidation of a fact witness. Add it to the impeachment file.
Trump is lying (unless he taped the call himself). No recordings of Prez. phone calls have been routinely made since Nixon. He’s blowing smoke at the press, as usual, inviting them to chase a squirrel.
Start locking up these criminals when they defy subpoenas. This is pure pansy crap from the Dems if they don’t start busting heads. The Trump Crime Syndicate is daring Dems to do anything about Trump’s crimes. Lock the GOP bastards in a cell and fine 'em about $10,000/day until they decide to testify under oath. Jesus H. Christ.
So, he won’t testify? He won’t go before Congress and tell them that what all of these other people have been saying about what Donnie did is a lie? What’s the problem? You mean Donnie isn’t demanding that he go in and testify?
I’m all for it. But the truth of the matter is, well, who’s gonna do it? Not the DOJ. And what bill collection agency is gonna collect the fines?
I think that’s why the term “constitutional crisis” keeps coming up!
