My original post in this thread was not in response to you. You chose to interject yourself.
He should have been arrested on the spot.

So then you agree that the OP is wrong for saying:
He should have been arrested on the spot.

Remind me again, how many days has it been since Jim Jordan snubbed his own subpoena without being arrested.
Remind me again whose DOJ it was that enacted the rule that a Congressional subpoena related to an impeachment inquiry is only valid once a whole House vote is held authorizing the inquiry.
The House Committees on Oversight and Accountability and Judiciary issued subpoenas to Hunter Biden for a deposition to be conducted on December 13, 2023.
We planned to question Hunter Biden about this record of evidence during our deposition, but he blatantly defied two lawful subpoenas. Hunter Biden’s willful refusal to comply with the Committees’ subpoenas is a criminal act. It constitutes contempt of Congress and warrants referral to the appropriate United States Attorney’s Office for prosecution as prescribed by law. We will not provide Hunter Biden with special treatment because of his last name.
The committee's broad jurisdiction and legislative authority make it one of the most influential and powerful panels in the House. Its chair is one of only three in the House with the authority to issue subpoenas without a committee vote or consultation with the ranking member.
The House of Representatives must expressly authorize a committee to conduct an
impeachment investigation and to use compulsory process in that investigation before
the committee may compel the production of documents or testimony in support of the
House’s power of impeachment.
