Legal Insurrection- Article of Impeachment II against Donald Trump was “obstruction of Congress.” One of the bases for the Article was the Trump administration’s position that it did not have to comply with House Committee subpoenas to senior administration officials.
Donald McGahn, Trump’s former White House Counsel was not named in Article II, but he was among the people who refused to comply. The House Judiciary Committee went to court to enforce the subpoena to McGahn, and a district court judge, in a much ballyhooed opinion, ordered McGahn to appear.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit just ruled that subpoena was unenforceable in court, and reversed.

Trump was accused of obstructing Congress because he refused to allow this attorney to testify under a claim of Executive Privilege. Amazing how clear this case was decided once it got before a Court that had two Judges that could render an unbiased opinion.
Hope a copy was forwarded to every member of the impeachment committee with instructions of how to fold it into a suppository.
But Trump is impeached FOREVER! I have spoken. I am the Queen and you are my subjects.
