She still has to testify in front of Congress on April 14, we'll start there.

[-] kylie_kraft@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Does she though? I could see the administration stonewalling by claiming that she no longer represents it in that capacity. I even wonder if ducking her testimony was a primary motive in doing this now.

She was subpoenaed by name, not by title, and just because she is not in the AG role anymore doesn't mean she can't be subpoenaed and legally compelled to appear by Congress. She absolutely still has information Congress has the authority to compel her to provide.

See Hillary and Bill Clinton just a few weeks ago, or Hillary being subpoenaed about Benghazi in 2015, long after she stopped being Secretary of State.

Doesn't mean they won't try though

[-] NekoKoneko@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I would absolutely expect the GOP to withdraw (or use congressional procedure to effectively withdraw) the subpoena, however.

[-] Angrydeuce@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

If i was her loved ones I would have her on "suicide" watch.

[-] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 3 points 3 weeks ago

Hard to believe she has any.

[-] Angrydeuce@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah my bad, I forgot for a minute that she's disgusting in every single way.

Honestly don't know what they can do anymore. One would think a convicted felon has to go to prison but instead we made them President.

Wouldn't be surprised if she just refused to go and nothing happened to her.

[-] cattywampas@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yes she does, the subpoena still applies. But I wouldn't doubt if Trump didn't know that when he fired her.

[-] dejova281@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Hoping she has an ounce of dignity and humanity and goes scorched earth on Trump et al. during the testimony

[-] Akasazh@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

When is not know yet, but it's location is in Salem.

[-] CubitOom@infosec.pub 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

She's not a witch for protecting pedophiles, she's a conspirator.

[-] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

Did she threaten to release some files? They have a name I can’t remember …they haven’t been mentioned in a while.

BUT THE DOW IS ABOVE 48K!.... Oh nevermind! 😂

[-] SarcasticMan@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

She will get a bench in federal court or SCOTUS if Alito or Thomas retire in the next year.

[-] GuyFawkesV@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

That’s Cannon’s seat.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
