The White House rejected Democrats request to bring senior adviser Stephen Miller before the House Oversight Committee to testify, according to a letter obtained by the Washington Post late Wednesday.
“We are pleased that the Committee is interested in obtaining information regarding border security and much needed improvements to our immigration system,” White House counsel Pat Cipollone wrote to Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-MD) in the letter, but only offered to make “cabinet secretaries and other agency leaders” available to discuss policy. In his initial request Cummings asked that Miller specifically come to testify on May 1.
“It appears that you are one of the primary moving forces behind some of the most significant — and in my view, troubling — immigration policies coming out of the Trump White House,” Cummings wrote in the initial request.
Miller is believed to be the shadow figure behind President Trump’s most hardline immigration moves, especially his recent interest in making cuts to legal immigration and visa programs.
Stop requesting.
Start subpoenaing and holding people in contempt that don’t comply.
Well, color me shocked and surprised to hear this.
Not.
There’s a tiny spot on you that isn’t already colored shocked and surprised?!
Couldn’t agree more.
My blood started to boil last night when Rachel was recounting the Watergate investigation and she described how the Committee stated: You have been subpoenaed if you don’t show up you are going to be arrested!
Now we have a DOJ that is run by a Trump Toadie who will never enforce the rule of law.
Fuck Trump
The impeachment needs to start with Barr
Roy Cohn giving us the middle finger from his grave.
Trump’s constant ‘middle-school drama’ behavior is something he learned from Roy Cohn
