2/5 This is a huge victory in House Judiciary's efforts to enforce its subpoena for former WH Counsel Don McGahn to publically testify concerning #TRE45ON's multiple obstructions of justice detailed in Vol 2 of the #MuellerReport.

3/5 Moreover, this decision has greater ramifications, as #TRE45ON's blanket refusal to produce documents or allow witnesses to testify in the impeachment inquiry is also grounded on the same "baseless" absolute immunity assertion.

4/5 This ruling compels testimony as laid out in House Judiciary's 8/7/19 Complaint RE #TRE45ON's obstruction that McGahn apparently either witnessed, or about which McGahn was personal knowledge, as detailed in the #MuellerReport.

5/5 The opinion is an entertaining read and wrecks DOJ's specious arguments throughout, e.g. "For a similar vantagepoint, see the ... book Animal Farm. 'All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.'â
