So Congress should be allowed to subpoena the Executive Branch for anything, at any time, and compel testimony of Executive Branch staff regarding meetings with the President and others? That would be a great system. Every consultation, every decision making meeting in the white house subject to subpoena and review by Congress, at their whim.
The Executive Branch is not subordinate to Congress.
Congress can investigate, but shouldn't there at least be some ALLEGED CRIME that it is investigating? How can you have an "investigation" of a non-crime or non-violation of law?

The crime would be conspiracy to obstruct justice, but don't you think it's reasonable to allow for a bit of fact-finding before the charges start being thrown around?
