That’s not necessarily true. Testimony that you make before Congress can be held against you during a future criminal proceeding.

And her ultimate boss “zippy zero”...he knew and is culpable. Impeachment is necessary as well as criminal charges.

I truly fear for my country. The liberty tree needs a drink and soon.

It may be a civil proceeding but answering cetain questions may result in aadmission of criminal liability, so the 5th applies.I have had folks invoke the 5th in a civil deposition. It happens.

She can't testify because she would have to give Jarrett's and Obama's names.

Likely the WH told her to take the 5th.

“In fact, she’s probably committed criminal acts at the behest of her WH orders.”

And thats the questions you sit her there ans make her invoke the 5th on.

“Did Hillary/Obama instruct you to target the TP?

Did the DNC require you to assist in any effort to rig the election?

Saul lives. Make him work for us.

Has the Justice Dept. opened a criminal investigation into this matter? If not, on what basis is she involking the 5th amendment? The only investigation I have heard spoken of is the IG investigation.

Impeachment isn’t possible,
but exposing the left as totally enabling corruption is possible.

Put these impeachable offenses before the public, keep them there, and at the same time declare that its impossible to act on these crimes because the democrats and political correctness won’t allow it.

She just opened Pandora’s Box.

She sure did.

Invoking the Fifth might provide some small measure of temporary protection for her, but it indicates to everyone else with half a brain that there IS "there there."

Want to bet that her lawyer is negotiating an immunity deal in exchange for her testimony?

Pleading the 5th on your tax returns is deemed to be a frivolous claim and immediately makes you eligible for fines.

Can I invoke the Fifth Amendment when asked to attest to the accuracy of my tax returns?
