The question now is do they have a legal ground on which to object and does the committee have enough time to litigate the subpoenas in time for their committee. >> answer both of those questions. >> okay. the answer is the time seems very much against the committee. let me give you an example. steve bannon who is the person the committee has moved most aggressively against, he was subpoenaed in september, he was indicted in november, the trial of his contempt is scheduled for july. okay? so you...

Probably lose the house, and that issues the republicans and former president trump have long been hammering, like joe bidens business dealings, and his lap tops, will be totally fair game in their eyes for investigations, for subpoenas, and also that it sets a precedent if republicans do not show up in this case, then what the democrats do when they are subpoenaed. if republicans show up and completely stonewall, and are not helpful, is that what democrats then do when the people -- and finally...

Building, want them to be here at stormont dealing with everyday problems, the problems of fuel costs, the problems with poverty, the problems in health care. yes, of course, there are issues that need to be resolved around the protocol. there is a protocol is that they themselves created. they are very good at saying no. what they are not very good up with solutions. and simply saying no and blocking is no way to treat people. it is treating them with contempt ever northern ireland. it is as si...

A New York judge on Wednesday set several conditions former President Donald Trump must meet to avoid a civil contempt finding being restored against him, including paying $110,000 in fines

Trump does not still any documents that would respond to the subpoena from the new york attorney generals office. the judge is saying, you still have to prove to me that what you did with these post it note and what you did with a handful of other boxes. once the trump people can do that, it looks like the judge will release his from this contempt. its important to keep in mind the bigger picture. this is about larger investigation which may result in a civil lawsuit by the new york ag against t...
