.....as long as they have cover from a Court ordering them to honor their subpoenas. I suppose so they can't be stopped by Trump with executive privilege claims.

Anyway, you know what they have to say won't be good for Trump. Otherwise, they'd rush to testify before the House Intel committee.

NEW: Lawyer for impeachment witnesses BOLTON and Kupperman says his clients stand ready to testify if a federal judge says they must comply with a Congressional subpoena.

  1. House Chairs withdrew the subpoena earlier this week, but anew letter suggests they want to be subpoenaed.

John Bolton has always claimed the reason he has been such a super chickenhawk when it came to supporting and advocating almost all military action, even the lying Iraq Invasion he cheerleaded so prominently, because of his over-abundance of love for this country.

then prove it!! don't wait to be forced to tell the truth about what you know was so wrong and corrupt and anti-american, DEMAND TO TESTIFY AND TELL THE TRUTH FOR THE GOOD OF THE COUNTRY....

Trump hasn't said a word about Bolton and Kupperman. I suspect he's afraid, very afraid. There's testimony already that Bolton likened Guiliani's transactions with Ukraine "a drug deal." He also told his people to talk to the NSC legal counsel about what they saw going down.

Bolton again proves that he’s a GOP chickenhawk. He doesn’t need some judge to tell him to honor a subpoena. If he cares about the country he should march right in there and testify instead of being afraid to “get in trouble.” What a weasel.

P.S. Bolton clearly knows “where the bodies are buried”...

Maybe Bolton can go and break Eric Holder's record for ignoring a subpoena.
how many pages of documents has bolton or any white house upper echelon person provided to any investigations? holder spent years providing documents to the repubs constant nothingburger investigations and finally had enough, just calling them nuisance suits because repubs are such little bitches in general.

The Department of Justice has turned over nearly 65,000 pages of documents on the “Fast and Furious” gunrunning scandal to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, the panel announced Tuesday.

The documents, long desired by Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), include material the Obama administration previously argued was unreleasable as it was covered by executive privilege. But earlier this year, a federal judge ultimately compelled the DOJ to send the documents to Congress.

Issa said obtaining the documents was a “victory for the legislative branch” but insisted he would continue his campaign against the DOJ and Attorney General Eric Holder as the panel is still missing material Congress has requested.

Issa also said he was “deeply concerned” that the DOJ overly redacted some of the documents included in the release. In a cover letter accompanying the documents — made public by the Oversight Committee — the DOJ said tight time constraintsto provide the documents may have “resulted in more redactions than the department ultimately will want to press in this case.”

The tens thousands of pages of documents released to the House late Monday include an email exchange between Holder and his wife as well as an exchange between Holder and White House adviser Valerie Jarrett.

Jarrett’s email discussion with Holder appears to have been a morale-boosting effort at a time when press reports suggested he’d received updates on Operation Fast and Furious notwithstanding his statements to the contrary.

“I’m sorry,” Jarrett wrote to Holder on October 4, 2011.

“Time to go to the mattresses. Ready for the fight. Will send some of our stuff. All I have are the facts,” Holder replied, signing the message simply, “E.”

“Facts always work,” Jarrett responded.

Holder’s emails on the subject also include some frank criticism of Issa.

“Issa and his idiot cronies never gave a damn about this when all that was happening was that thousands of Mexicans were being killed with guns from our country. All they want to do- in reality- is cripple ATF and suck up to the gun lobby,” Holder wrote to three of his top aides on April 15, 2011. “Politics at its worst- maybe the media will get it.”

A person familiar with the exchanges between Holder and his wife, Sharon Malone, said that one involves Malone forwarding a news article related to the case. In the email thread, the couple went on to discuss family matters not related to the Fast and Furious investigation.

In another, former DOJ official Robert Raben shared public relations strategy with Malone, who forwarded the advice to Holder, the source said.

A DOJ spokesman said officials hope the disclosure can help settle the litigation over Fast-and-Furious-related records.

so, 65,000 pages of documents versus- none. and you are crying?

Holder also testified before Congress at great length. Trump instructs his people to completely ignore all subpoenas.

Apples and oranges, but wingers need to change the subject.

The moustache is a proponent of the unitary executive theory so he'd probably testify that Trump DID illegally extort and bribe the president of Ukraine.....and then add "so what?"

Dunno. He did did refer to it as a “drug deal” that he wanted no part of.

Maybe because he didn’t cook it up?

;-)
 
I'm pretty sure Bolton saw Trump's extortion and bribery as totally wrong and against our foreign policy interests. I just suspect he doesn't think Trump should be impeached over it.
I wonder if he thought Nixon was innocent.

That’s probably where he would come down.

In the end, Trump and his sycophants won’t be able to deny the facts. Trump clearly engaged in a shakedown of the Ukraine president - demanding that they commence and publicly announce investigations for Trump’s own political purposes and, what’s more, withheld military aid and a meeting with Trump until Trump’s illicit demands were met. And these facts have been proved despite Trump’s rampant, unlawful obstruction of Congress.

After all the Trump/GOP lies and diversion attempts have been spewed, those facts will be undeniable. They will be left with one alternative - laughably arguing either that such conduct is proper, or that it’s not impeachable. And they will then have to defend their deplorable decision to the voters.

They're selfish by nature.....so here's hoping they're weighing the personal torment and anguish they would have to continue to endure should Trump have another 4 years....and decide to dump him now.
 
you have no base. now wake up and get a clue.
Well she/it has quite a memory, Wrote about GORDO who left here in 2014 and she/it came here in January 2019. Now how in the hell would she know about GordonGecko?
But it doesn't matter to the Adm. Saladin...a different story.

After the 2000 debacle when Bolton, himself, was one of the thugs who stopped the recount for GW, I don't trust him at all. But hopefully, he will do the right thing. Not going to hold my breath. Since when does a Republican do the right thing?
