Preach. How much time and money will Wikipedia have to waste defending this?

Don’t these people have anything better to do? Like lowering prices for everyday Americans instead of running up baseless legal bills?

This is actually one of the most important things they can do. Reality does not conform to their twisted worldviews, so they must pervert publicly available sources of information in order to maintain legitimacy. This means the media, education, and the open internet. And they are readily assaulting all three.

From what I understand this is just a "polite" request, not a supeona, so Wikipedia can ignore it if they want.

You can just ignore congress?

If they are just asking nicely, yes (although there are probably political ramifications). If its an actual demand then no.

I imagine the way it normal goes is first they ask nicely and if you say no then they formally supeona you.

Depends if you're the president.

Yup
