Well I'm just a country doctor Jim,………….no , wait, wrong one………….anyway, Imma reckon this: the cases I can find where EP is used to prevent testimony, rather than give documents or [ahem ] recordings, are cases where those asked to give testimony did not necessarily want to do so, so that EP was invoked to prevent Congress from compelling testimony . So what if Comey WANTS to testify? There's contempt of Court , and contempt of Congress charges and penalties and stuff, I don't recall any similar contempt of Executive stuff. Maybe there is. If not, what could Asshole do?
If they really do this, it will be amusing to see how much more the FBI can get pissed off, and bracing to watch the massive flood of leaks of incredibly damaging info that I'm sure those Boys in Black have been nurturing for just this occasion.
J. Edgar Hoover built this organization. Never forget that.

Also, I suddenly have deja vu . Did I ask this a coupla months ago?
Oh, right. Sally Yates. So they threatened but she went ahead anyway. . Would they call U.S. Marshall in and have Comey arrested ?

Thus ensuring he is likely to do it. This is Donald we are talking about, after all…
