Rep. Elijah Cummings presses Gowdy on Kushner personal email request

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the ranking member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, is again calling on Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) to sign onto a request for documents from White House senior adviser Jared Kushner about the use of private email accounts.

The latest letter follows a previous one from Cummings on Friday, when he accused the White House of stonewalling the records request and asked Gowdy to issue subpoenas should the White House not comply with the requests by Oct. 26.

The letters from Cummings come after multiple reports revealed that Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, used a private email account to conduct official White House business.

“In light of the statement from the White House that the Committee should obtain this information directly from Mr. Kushner and his attorneys, I am writing today to urge you to reverse your current course of action and join my requests for documents and a briefing,” Cummings writes in the new letter.

“If you decline, then I believe Committee Members should have the opportunity to debate and vote on a motion to issue subpoenas to compel Mr. Kushner and Ms. Trump to produce these documents,” he wrote, referring to Ivanka Trump, who is Kushner's wife and the president's daughter and adviser.

4. Half sarcasm and half of me is hoping he or ONE of them will be patriotic and do the right

thing.

So far nobody, not one.

5. With Corker, Bush, and McCain

All providing a remarkably similar message last week, I think there is something in the works within the R party to undermine *45. I could be off, but they all said basically the same thing in public. None of them has to worry about donor cash, so I think they are the messengers.....so far. I don t think a Trey Gowdy will ever choose country over party. It’s not who he is. His eyes are too beady and ears too prominent to be anything but a rat
