'Play hardball': New York Times columnist calls for Giuliani to be arrested

A Cornell law professor encouraged the House to start arresting people close to President Trump to force the White House to comply with subpoenas.

Law professor Josh Chafetz wrote an op-ed in the New York Times on Thursday titled, "The House Can Play Hardball, Too. It Can Arrest Giuliani." Chafetz said House Democrats should respond to a recent defiant letter by White House counsel Pat Cipollone by resorting to tactics that have not been used in generations.

The House should threaten to use "its sergeant-at-arms to arrest contemnors [that violate subpoenas] … especially when an individual, like Rudy Giuliani, is not an executive branch official," Chafetz writes.

Half the country voted for Trump. The democrats are leading the country towards a armed revolt if they remove him from office before his term is up.
