Who didn't see this coming? One of the reasons Huma Abedin decided not to divorce Anthony Weiner was because she could claim Marital Privilege in case the FBI wanted to testify against him about those classified emails on his computer.

A first year law student could have told them this was coming.

Another criminal escapes the short arm of the law.

Nothing burger indeed. Congressional investigations put on a good show but as it has been painfully observed, rarely reveal information that leads to indictments and actual justice.
Unless a competent Federal prosecutor aided by Federal agents is investigating and empaneling a grand jury, most of this will come to nothing. Congress cannot do Session’s job.

I hope they got to HER freestanding misdeeds...and she has plenty aside from her shielded marital conspiracy activities.

Thus further demonstrating what an incredible conflict of interest Bruce Ohr was operating under.

Before she’s allowed to invoke marital privilege she has to show her Kenyan marriage certificate.

This isn’t a court of law. It’s a congressional hearing. I see a huge difference between the two.

Why should she be allowed to invoke marital privilege for a hearing? Besides, there are a lot of questions that can be asked of beautiful Nellie that don’t involve her husband.

I have no problem with this. There are so many other things she can testify about without ever mentioning her husband.

Her invoking this privilege wouldn’t matter a damn is Magoo simply presented this entire, stinking mess to a grand jury. But he remains the WORST presidential hire in American history.

Since anything goes for the Rats on marriage, 20 or so swamp dwellers could marry each other and claim that privilege to avoid testifying against each other.

This situation just doesn’t seem right because it runs in the opposite direction of normal. It is supposed to stop government coercion of testimony against someone not affiliated with government. Bruce Ohr was abusing his power as a government official. Doesn’t feel right to protect him when he was the one dishing out government abuse. More times than you would like to think, law gives protection to the scoundrels and leaves the innocent exposed.

Did she answer any questions about her OWN activities? And what a surprise that Meadows doesn’t think she needs to return! Yeah...THIS is the guy Rinos want as our next Speaker. (Well, he does have the requisite forked tongue).

That is why the Clintons are married.

Far too many bodies in their wake.
