If you were counsel to the House Democrats, I think you'd have some interesting questions about how to proceed. I would subpoena WhatsApp for the Sondland messages, and I would do it in a public way that would prompt Trump to go to court to try to quash the subpoena. That lets you isolate the question of whether the House's subpoena is facially valid, on facts where Administration were conducting public business on private accounts.
Anyway, seems like you don't want to take on all of the issues at once -- you want to look for a way to chip away at the craziness.
