Lois is a player in the game. She would not negotiate a no prosecution deal for her testimony, although she did lead the committee on a bit prior to her last appearance.
Lois then gave statements to the Justice Department “investigators” lead by the in house Dept of justice Obama Campaigners.
In otherwords she really WAS in contempt of Congress, plus there is a case to be made that she had waived her right to plead the 5th amendment when she first began making public statemenst about her involvement in the IRS violation of applicant due process.
Congress can compel her testimony by holding her in comtempt and incarcerating her, at leat for the duration of this session of Congress.
The question is whether the House has the political will to go all the way.
The FedMob has no problem jailing journalists for not revealing confidential sources. re Judith Miller. No reason this Lerner pig shouldn’t be locked up.
