“The idea that we would trade away democracy to defend an obscure senate rule.”

“Some people, like Steve Bannon, for example,” says @CFColemanJr, “Will turn this into an opportunity to become the hero.” That’s why, he adds, the House Jan. 6th Committee needs to decide if it will punish the people who’ve ignored their subpoenas.
