One More Time.
Newts not running for congress, therefore he is not proposing a pure legislative branch power grab.
He is proposing an Executive Branch power grab, the execution of which would include him using the powers of the President to somehow assert a new authority to command the legislative branch to grill members of the judiciary.
This is far worse than you want to make it. This is the Unitary Executive on steroids.
