#3 Can he do that? Nope, no more than you or I can. But the difference here is that he will have several thousand dedicated reporters, commentators, columnists and assorted pundits assuring us that were he to do so, the Republic itself would be doomed, and therefore we should concern ourselves more with the misadventures of the Kardashian family.

#4 if it's a valid subpoena, they don't get to refuse it. Contempt of Court will be found, then Contempt of Congress. People go to jail for that stuff, unless OZero issues blanket pardons. Most Transparent* administration evah!

*not the way they meant

#5 So much for the foundation of democracy and freedom; the rule of law bites the dust. The fifth column (aka MSM) will not even let forth a whisper.

#7 A subpoena is a subpoena. If compliance was optional, it would be called something else.

Unreal.
