House Dems set to subpoena Kushner, Sessions and 10 other Mueller witnesses

The House Judiciary Committee will vote on Thursday to authorize subpoenas for 12 of former special counsel Robert Mueller's witnesses — including President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, his former deputy Rod Rosenstein, former national security adviser Michael Flynn, former chief of staff John Kelly and former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.

Each of the witnesses provided crucial testimony to Mueller about Trump's efforts to thwart the Russia investigation, and the committee's efforts are certain to meet resistance from a White House that has already blocked testimony from senior aides like former White House Counsel Don McGahn and former longtime adviser Hope Hicks.

The barrage of subpoena authorizations represents a major expansion of the committee’s Trump-focused investigation, casting a wider net from obstruction of justice to hush-money payments. The committee has faced repeated resistance from the White House as it investigates obstruction of justice allegations against the president.

A majority of the committee’s Democrats already favor launching formal impeachment proceedings against the president, and the number is likely to grow after Mueller testifies next week before the Judiciary and Intelligence committees.

1. There needs to be some determination by the court knock down...or not

Trump admin's absolute immunity or confidentiality or divine right of kings or whatever excuse they floating in any given week.

2. That will be 10 times the Obstruction of Justice for all to see.....

Proving that Trump IS NOT innocent in all of this Russia mess.

3. What will congress do when all witnesses assert "immunity "

Just like Hicks did?

What will it take to defend the Constitution and separation of powers and open an impeachment inquiry?

Clock is ticking, and soon Billy Barr will unleash his Inspector General Witch Hunt to usurp the narrative and suck all the wind out of the slow as molasses congressional “investigations “

4. Do you really think they'll honor those subpoenas?

ENFORCEABLE!!!! (somehow)
