How is this not a form of witness tampering? Are congressional witnesses allowed to be threatened for their participation in a hearing?
Wouldn’t this also meet the requirements for “Obstructing an official proceeding”?
I’ve not really followed this story, but is anybody talking about impeachment and / or criminal charges for this behavior?
It’s the GOP. They alternatively hate the concept of a state when it’s not them in power, and want a religious-military caliphate-style government when it is them in power.
The concept of witness tampering is just taking non-believers out back and shooting them, it’s just another point on the daily docket.
