White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway on Monday defied a congressional subpoena, refusing to show up for testimony to the House Oversight and Reform Committee about her violations of the Hatch Act and prompting House Democrats to threaten to hold her in contempt of Congress.to Rep.
“We are requiring her to testify before Congress about her multiple violations of federal law, her waste of taxpayer funds, and her actions that compromise public confidence in the integrity of the federal government,” he added.

“This illegal activity — and the ongoing effort to cover it up — must not be allowed to stand,” Cummings said. Republican lawmakers, too, have rushed to Conway’s defense, claiming that the Hatch Act unfairly restricts Conway’s free speech rights.
Cummings as corrupt as you are do you really want to discuss the word 'coverup'? Why don't you work on cleaning up your own act first?
Executive Privilege Love when liberals Expect Republicans to Respect a System Obama Disrespected Many Times During his Many Scandals. OBAMA'S GOVT IGNORED CONGRESS OVERSIGHT & SO SHOULD TRUMPS GOVT WHICH HAS HAD NO SCANDALS AS OF YET!!!!!
How about we look into YOUR indiscretions... lots to look at there. POS Conway did nothing wrong. This is just a continuation of your Dem harassment of Trump. 😡
I wish he'd stop Threatening and Just do it!
I’m so sick of all this talking and threats about what must not stand but still they get away with everything 🤔
DO IT.
Stop threatening and do it!!
Lock her up
Mr Cummings , let’s look at your income and taxes. That’s the real cover up. FOIA for all of congress!
You know what never in my fifty years have I ever seen a political party go after someone as hard as these idiots have ,its embarrassing
They need to be preparing a cell for her.
Is he going to hold his corrupt wife in contempt?
Chill out Elijah, You aint going to do anything. I know it , everybody else knows it , and you know it.
Put her in jail already, you and the rest of the Democrats need to stop putting out empty threats, just do it !!
Can he ask her why she was hanging out with Epstein’s pilot at an airport?
The TheDemocrats are all talk and no action. weak
Just do it please
Stop threatening and fucking do it.
And then what? Who arrests her?
Hold KellyannePolls in handcuffs. She already is contemptible enough
Oops can call her executive privilege . Dems side show is because failed coup by fake Russian interference
Lock her up!
THEN DO IT, Dammit! When will the Democrats find their balls?
What’s that do? Absolutely nothing he’s had Barr in contempt and nothing happens.
What a surprise.

When will any of these criminals be held in contempt and punished for defying these lawful and constitutional subpoenas?
Arrest her ass. If the lowest among the executive branch (a glorified PR flack) can ignore Congress then the system of checks and balances is destroyed.
He should stop threatening and act. Jail the lying witch.
Good!
fabucat DO IT!! If needed and appropriate LOCK HER UP!
Un-American succubus😣⏬
Please, what would that do? Obama admin and crooked Hillary gang have all ignored subpoenas when Repubs called them so what's good for them is good for Trump admin too! Cummings is nobody, he and his wife have bankrolled a nice pile of cash off his position in govt
arrest the *****
How can this administration get upset about people in this country illegally when they refuse 2 do what is lawfully asked of them?
RepCummings She was due to appear TODAY, not the 25th. Stop postponing and DO SOMETHING! The GOP is making a mockery of you and your subpoenas.
Lock her up
Well that’s good
RepCummings
Cummings.....What? What about the investigations into his background and shady dealings? He’s in charge of Ethics....that’s an Oxymoron
Stop letting them run out the clock already. There need to be consequences for, uh, BREAKING THE LAW.
WHAT DO MEAN THREATEN? Hold people in contempt. Jesus.
BS, the Dems are weak and don’t have any power
oh no not contempt of congress! remember how big of a deal that was for EricHolder ?
Just do it- why the threats? Comply with a subpoena or the consequences should be faced. “Regular” people would be in jail already for failure to comply.
She is going to be beautiful in prison stripes. George May enjoy the peace and quite.
You better....lawlessness is not the way.
Don't tell him, but he could have her arrested if he didn't want it to stand.
fueltrump
If she broke the law, send the cops to arrest her sorry ass. Time to stop talking and start DOING.
Lock her up?
Just do it! 🤷🏽♂️
Lock her up!!!
So gtconway3d ... ?
Lock her up !!!
KellyannePolls Lock her up.
LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! Isn’t that what the Republicans would day if the tables were turned
Who’s going to make her? She knows the answer- no one. No one at all.
But of course, the Queen of the WH is special and exempt
So if I receive a subpoena I can just use it as fishwrap? Or does ignoring the law only apply to wealthy - and white-
Arriadna Maybe her husband can get her out of this one.
thomaskaine5 Lock her up!
JJohnsonLaw The Democrats and SpeakerPelosi must realize, if the law means nothing, they mean nothing. This contempt for the law cannot stand.
Can your legal defense as a regular old citizen from now on be “well people in the White House ignore subpoenas so I assumed it was optional?”
So violating the hatch act is against the law. Defying a subpoena is against the law. So basically we're only a nation of laws if we're not employed by the white house 👌
Lock her up!
strategiclimits Lock her up NOW!
thomaskaine5 Arrest her. Tase her, if you must.
The committee should proceed without her, weigh the evidence and make a finding.
thomaskaine5 Throw her in jail. KellyannePolls
Arrest her! Enough already with these people. 😡
Go have her arrested. Stop playing games.
Then she should have dismissal proceedings started. She is a government employee,after all
francescatututu LockHerUp

ILOVERAFA1 Why is this news? Everyone who has been subpoenaed from this administration has refused to show up and....nothing. No reprimand. No anything. Why would Conway do any different?

Another crook in the White House....
I wonder if her husband agreed with that decision.

If I ignore a subpoena I go to jail
Is this where the Democrats give her a stern look and throw in meaningful tsk tsk?
