Adam Schiff explains the subpoenas from the last 4 years:

Tired of reading about Democrats being 'weak' every day right here on DU. It's a lie.

1. Gonna have to see it in action

[Bettie]

4. That's where I am

If I see an attempt to enforce them, GREAT! If not, well, congressional subpoenas are apparently an "if I want to" kind of thing.

[lame54]

6. I keep hearing they have to figure out what to do on a no-show...

That should have been figured out before issuing their first subpeona

7. You did NOT hear that from THEM, though.

Maybe compare what they DO say with how you "keep hearing" others describe it?

Insidious efforts to confuse people into conflating Democrats with Republicans are not only everywhere, but we've all been swamped with them all our lives. That's how those who want wealth-serving conservatives in power win -- by confusing and discouraging people who want better into believing it doesn't exist.

8. Know what THEM is saying?...

"Consider"
"Referral"
"Leave it up to..."

Those don't sound definitive to me

With all their tough talk THEM always leave it with - well see what happens

11. :) Yes, but that how honest officials have to talk, Lame54.

With honest, responsible language. Unsatisfying to not be able to get firm answers before they're available to them, or they can report truth. These guys might just all choose to hang together in jail rather than hang separately. They have reason to believe that if tRump were to get power they'd be pardoned national heroes in the new order.

But look at the alternative. Go over to Fox for that and compare them. The reassurance of certainty is their product; anything else that might be suggested temporarily is just part of their performance art -- in the end viewers are believers in the message. Trump is nothing but certainty.
