Trump blasts Susan Rice for declining request to testify before Senate panel

By Louis Nelson

President Donald Trump criticized former national security adviser Susan Rice Thursday morning, writing on Twitter that it was “not good” that Rice refused an invitation from Sen. Lindsey Graham to testify before a Senate subcommittee.

Rice, who served as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and then as national security adviser for former President Barack Obama, officially turned down Graham’s invitation to testify regarding Russia’s interference in last year’s election before the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee Crime and Terrorism.

Because you don't have to claim the 5th until you get a subpoena.

Wonder what she would say to a Grand Jury invitation?

Rice probably has enough information to put both Bammy and Clinton away.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

One wonders what Bammy would look like in a jump suit but not so in Clinton's case since that's all she wears anyway.

If I got an "invitation" to testify at a Senate or House committee, I wouldn't do it and no sane person would put him/her self at the mercy of whichever party he/she is not.  It would take a subpoena to get me there.

I'm all for handing Rice a subpoena.

Hopefully the subpoena will be forthcoming very soon!
