report on the abuse of new american native american children in u.s. schools. we will talk about congress looking into possible extraterrestrial. that s, right there have been credible sightings. we are opening up the x-files. we have to begin this morning right here on earth was some unprecedented developments here in the january six investigations. five sitting members of congress now facing subpoena testify and what they knew about the planning behind the insurrection. trump s five stages are already the already crying the subpoenas that an illegitimate west witch hunt. they are threatening investigations of their own if they retake the house in november. none of these five are willing to comply. it s the privilege for me. what do you think would happen to us if we defied a subpoena? joining me now is at the nation, he s also the author of the new york times black a black ice guy to the constitution. something we stiffening we need. i can t overstate how unpreced
how can the committee force them to do stuff. there are a couple of options. one that i ve always been a fan of is nancy pelosi s basement, or vanity whatever she has in congress because congress has an inherent contempt of power. they can issue legal subpoenas in force people to comply with the subpoenas. they can arrest people who don t comply with legally issued subpoenas from congress. they can do that on their own authority. that has not been tried in quite some time. it has been a while since we brought out this powers, but there s a question of how physical do you want this to look? can the sergeant of arms of congress fight? because we are talking about physically absconding with members of congress for noncompliance. there are some reasons why the democrats might be afraid of using their power.

getting to what he was just talking about, these lesser known individuals. they may hold a lot of information that s going to be very helpful. well, i think the committee has to act as if they can get every once they want. they have to go out and try to interview everyone who has relevant information and clearly, roger stone and alex jones would have relevant information about what went on on january 6th. the question of, first of all, will they cooperate, and second of all, can the committee force them to cooperate? those are obviously important questions but they re secondary because you ve got to ask first, all of these individuals have significant information, they were issued subpoenas, and let e s see what they do. some may cooperate. some may not. some may be held in contempt.
