Sen. Elissa Slotkin w/Erin Burnett: President Trump’s threats that he wants his DOJ to investigate her: “I don’t know why Trump keeps name checking me.”
Kurt Bardella: The old way, a polite letter, a less polite letter, then a subpoena a month later.
The White House just told Democrats it won’t cooperate. That’s a permission slip to skip the fake niceties and start with the subpoena.
Scott MacFarlane : They need to pass things. Their constituents are not going to be satisfied with strongly worded letters and bills that passed one chamber, but didn't become law.
Rep Jamie Raskin: Somebody should tell Todd Blanche and his team to get a Supreme Court decision called Steffel v. Thompson, which says it’s legally actionable to bring an injunction action against the government if the government is trying to scare you out of exercising your First Amendment rights and your constitutional rights.
In our case, it’s not just that these members were exercising their constitutional rights; they were exercising their constitutional duties. We have a duty, as the Article I preeminent branch of government, to conduct oversight operations of the entire government, as well as the economy and other things happening in society.
Rep Robert Garcia: We are not going to be threatened or intimidated because we are demanding accountability and oversight. The truth is that he needs to understand that Congress is a co-equal branch of government.
This idea that President Trump or the White House counsel want to send threatening letters to myself… it’s not going to stop our important work.
Rep. James Walkinshaw: Comer is all but hanging a “mission accomplished” banner over his Epstein report.
Meanwhile, 2.5 million pages remain withheld. Survivors are still waiting for justice.
We’re not done. Release the files.
Rep Lisa McClain (R-MI): They are going to be focused on going after President Trump. We're going to be focused on improving the quality of life for every American. We have the opportunity to show the American people what Republicans stand for
Gordon Chang w/Stu Varney: This is a critical national security violation. Jensen Huang should step down as Nvidia CEO after admitting to having an affair with an alleged spy for China.
The company's board is investigating the circumstances surrounding the relationship, and whether Huang was targeted in a foreign intelligence operation.
