Should Cohen be able to indefinitely postpone testifying to the House?

And how does him testifying have anything to do with Trump's lame tweets about his FIL?

IMO, Cummings should have politely said no.

But stalling will be the tactic of the hour for this crowd.

Every call to testify, every request for documents, and every question asked in Committee will be stonewalled. The courts will be busy.

He may actually be required to testify and provide true statements. I just don’t know.

It was his desire to do this in the first place. If it is postponed will he be able to testify if he is IN jail? The courts will take forever to go through the whole subpoena process and the delays will be long. Will we ever hear his testimony?
