CORRUPTION
Congress Needs to ‘Make It Rain Subpoenas’ to Find Out How Many Trump Investigations Bill Barr Has Quashed: Ex-Prosecutor
On Thursday, former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner tweeted that the House of Representatives should “make it rain subpoenas” — and attach the threat of jail time to officials who refuse to honor them — in order to find out whether Attorney General William Barr has quashed any Justice Department investigations into President Donald Trump.
His tweet came in response to author Don Winslow, who asserts that sources in the DOJ tell him Barr has shut down six investigations into “Trump and Trump related companies and surrogates,” and prevented two other investigations from beginning.
Which is why the House needs to make it rain subpoenas! And enforce them with inherent contempt if necessary. We can’t let this rampant corruption go unchecked and unabated. https://t.co/CeUiV2pakS
