Destroying evidence under subpoena and lying to Congress both are liable to charges of Contempt of Congress. I expect all show and no go.

As part of their investigatory powers Congress can try a person for contempt and imprison them until they either testify or produce the evidence subpoenaed, the House until the end of session and the Senate indefinitely.

Then they need to do this with that crook Koskinen for lying about the IRS destroying evidence.

Pleading the Fifth AFTER being granted immunity should invalidate your immunity agreement.

You have nothing to worry about incriminating yourself.

In theory, once granted immunity for anything you say, you should spill your guts. Then they cannot prosecute you for anything.

He had some kind of limited immunity from the FBI. I don't believe we've ever actually been told full nature of his immunity, or what was gained by the FBI from it. (if anything). He doesn't have immunity granted by congress. If the congresscritters had actually been interested in the truth of what actually happened, they'd have granted him immunity as well. After all, he's just a low-level criminal who, in the big scheme of things isn't actually important. However, neither congress nor the FBI is interested in the American people actually finding out the truth about what went on, so he was allowed to take the 5th.

Bottom line: if the republicans actually wanted the truth to be known, they would have it.

Like Watergate, the cover up is worse than the crime.

This is Hussein Obama's Watergate.

Hillary was NOT indicted because some of her crimes will lead directly to Hussein Obama, America's FIRST Muslim President.

Hussein and Hillary lied about the film during the Benghazi scam to hide the fact that Hussein was giving US weapons and aid to Muslim terrorists.

If you have to ask why a guy named Hussein would side with Muslim terrorists, then count yourself, well stupid.

In additional b to immunity, they should have asked for witness protection.

You are so right. The useless GOP congress does nothing except talk and conduct faux hearings that go nowhere. Its all a political show with no substance or actionable results. Its political weakness on display.

However, when the Democrats regain the House or Senate at some point they will show no mercy. They must laugh at the GOP idiots.

Jason Chavitz was on Mornings with Maria ( FBC ) yesterday discussing this . He was all worked up about the illegality of all it . When asked if it was an impeachable offense if Hillary were to be elected he got quiet and said no . “ We don’t want to go there “. So they asked what do you want ? His answer ? “ Well , we just want to get the word out . “

They have no intention of doing anything . Like they’ve done for the past 8 years .

That the FBI does not supply the immunity agreements to congress is even worse!

They should go to a judge and get an arrest warrant for the creeps. Have the US Marshalls post their faces in all the Post Offices. Haul their butts into Congress in shackles.

Here is Google's cache of the thread where stonetear posed his question. He's deleted his posts on the non-cached version.
