A determination not to enforce the subpoenas would spell against everything that committee members person been saying for the past week. There is nary crushed for them not to enforce the subpoenas. The White House is moving with the Committee, Trump’s enforcement privilege assertion looks legally dubious astatine best, and determination is thing stopping the Committee from enforcing the subpoenas.

Rick Wilson’s rumor took disconnected connected Twitter, but it was unsourced and didn’t marque sense.

The rumor seems similar third-hand DC gossip that is much wishful reasoning than existent fact. It is doubtful that the 1/6 Committee would archer Rick Wilson their intentions connected subpoenas.

Rep. Cheney is the Vice-Chair of the Committee, truthful if anyone knows their intentions, it’s her.
