"citing invalid subpoenas and prior sworn statements"
the legal arguments made by Bill and Hillary Clinton(through their attorneys) subpoenas lacked a valid legislative purpose is a legitimate legal argument — it's one of the core constitutional requirements for congressional subpoenas to be enforceable, rooted in long-standing Supreme Court precedent.
why sworn written declarations aren't "good enough" — congressional committees have broad discretion over how they gather information, including choosing live depositions over written statements.
No resolution has been reached yet, and this remains a highly partisan standoff with possible court challenges ahead.
