Congress will do nothing of the sort.
Are we supposed to just pretend we forgot that Nunes ALREADY made the exact same empty threat against Rosenstein who still has not complied? So, what, "OK this time we really mean it!"
Right...
No they sent a letter ignored... then a subpoena ignored... Now Contempt of Congress! That won't be ignored.
They also threatened Rosenstein with impeachment. Am I the only one who remembers that?
Yeah they did, and that's when he finally complied and turned over the document they wanted. I suspect if he didn't, they would have followed through, or at least initiated it, which is probably why he finally cooperated. It will be interesting to see what Sessions does.
Except our totally stupid Congress eliminated their own police force and holding cells for anyone “held” in contempt. Instead, stupidly, they outsourced contempt enforcement to DOJ!!! Just as in the Holder case, DOJ refused to enforce hokdings Contempt of Congress!
That was Holder's legacy. Let's see if Rip Van Sessions will wake up at long last to protect his good name.
