The executive branch cannot dictate rules to the House.
The president cannot invent rules that allow him to decide when to comply with subpoenas.
Also recall that we were all properly horrified by how Trump had politicized the DOJ by taking over and giving it orders.
For me, by the way, this was one of the creepier moments in the Trump administration. Autocrats control prosecutors. Our system creates prosecutorial independence.
