00:00So here's the thing. We can vote on this now, or we can vote on this in January, in which
00:06I think a subpoena will be issued.
00:08The implication of not voting on it now, of denying the minority a vote on it now, will be, it
00:13will be the Republican position when you're in the minority,
00:16that the minority party no longer has the right to command a vote, to require a vote on a subpoena.
00:22So if you want to give up that right, you'll be doing it today.
00:26You'll be taking a position that when you're in the minority, you have no right to a vote on a
00:30subpoena.
00:30So that's the implication. The subpoena is going to go out, but you're establishing precedent by denying me this vote,
00:36that you won't insist on a vote, you'll have no position to insist on a vote in the minority.
