Committee members voted to allow the top Repub & Dem member to have free range to use their personal judgement on who to subpoena (which is virtually unheard of).

but why is this awesome?

I am lost when it comes to House, Senate, and Mueller's investigations. Isn't Mueller already interviewing Flynn and Cohen for criminal crimes? Could someone explain what we can expect individually from each committee?

Both Flynn & Cohen have been opening their mouths about how the would be willing to testify but have refused request for documents. Now it's time for them to put up or shut-up - if they are not going to provide the documents they will have to testify under oath. I am sure the House committee will be careful not to interfere with Mueller's investigation. I expect them both to plead the 5th which will be frustrating ...

So, they have to answer questions as if in court. These answers will be set in stone for any later interrogations? And it will be frustrating if they do plead the fifth. I wish Mueller would indict them immediately and then it would be a fast tract to jail.
