re: Seriously Dems, does OMB make you jettison any pretense of constitutional rights?

That matter is left up to the legislative body itself. In this particular instance, the legislative body is proceeding in a manner that I might not think is best, but that does not make its actions “unconstitutional.”
This is not a difficult concept to grasp.
Fine. Then you apparently agree that executive's stance of fake subpoenas can and will be ignored because, well, they are fake subpoenas.

Are they enforceable? No, of course not.
But if the committee chairperson chose to issue a subpoena (without even consulting the minority), he or she could do so (under GOP-enacted rules), and that indeed would be enforceable ... to the extent that any congressional subpoena is enforceable.
is the issuance of letters of inquiry rather than subpoenas a bit of political theater? Yes, of course.
