Pondering... WHERE in the Constitution is Congress empowered to
subpoena members of the Executive Branch?
Or, for that matter subpoena anyone, COURTS issue subpoenas, NOT
legislative bodies.
US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8
"The Congress shall have power .... To constitute Tribunals inferior to
the supreme Court"
If this goes to the Supreme Court, Congress will lose ;-)
