More than that, Issa should immediately propose sanctions against her, that while her 5th Amendment rights do protect her from self-incriminating testimony in a criminal case, they *do not* protect her employment by the federal government.
And unless she is dismissed by the IRS, with a permanent bar to future US government employment, as well as for any organization receiving US government contracts or funding, the appropriation for the IRS will include a provision to bar them from paying her any monies, providing her with an office or other support. She will lose any and all government security clearances and government benefits.
The IRS will also be barred for paying or reimbursing any of her future legal expenses. She will lose any government vehicle, credit card, expense account, etc.
Then the next step will be for the committee to subpoena all of her subordinates and offer them immunity in exchange for testimony against her in court, if they are aware of any such criminal wrongdoing on her part.
“More than that, Issa should immediately propose sanctions against her, that while her 5th Amendment rights do protect her from self-incriminating testimony in a criminal case, they *do not* protect her employment by the federal government.”
Put her through hours of testimony. Let her take the Fifth hundreds of times. Then pass a resolution demanding she be fired. When Obama ignores the resolution, the House should pull the funding for her position. The House controls the purse strings.
Time for bare knuckle fighting Mr. Boehner.
