House Judiciary Chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., pitched fining officials who ignore congressional subpoenas.

Nadler made the suggestion at a meeting of House leaders earlier this month, Bloomberg reported Wednesday. Nadler also went a step further and brought up the possibility of jailing Trump administration officials if they are found in contempt of Congress. Nadler admitted that plan is less realistic.

Democrats have issued multiple subpoenas this year, demanding six years of Trump’s tax returns and testimony from administration officials, who have thus far declined to appear in front of Congress.

Congressional subpoenas are fairly weak and have been routinely ignored in the past, by both sides.

Agreed.  Nadler is blowing smoke.

I guess Waddler thinks "Trump officials" are members of the Press during Obastard's day.
