Congress has the power to charge "inherent contempt"
Last done in 1934 it can still be done and should be done if impeachment is off the table. Harriet, Josh, and Karl need to be in a jail cell under the US Capitol pending their trial for contempt.
Refusal to appear before Congress is a criminal offense that needs to be enforced..by any means available to the Congress. The Congress has Supreme Court validated means at its disposal to enforce its powers and will need to exercise those means in this case.
