Correct.
These situations are often setups for perjury charges. “We may not be able to prove anything on them for the charge we’re investigating, but we can trip ‘em up under oath and nail them on perjury.”
This has got to stop. This country is now so banana-republic, it isn’t funny.
The Feds need to get your scalp to justify their jobs. They have all the power. Not even the President of the USA should allow them to question him just to trip him up. They were all working for Hillary/Obama so they are not honest.
never talk to law enforcement ever
never call law enforcement unless you want someone arrested or shot
This situation sounds fundamentally dishonest.
Is this what the founders envisioned?
I’ve posted this before. A few years back, we had an FBI agent as a neighbor. He was an arrogant POS and made sure everyone in the neighborhood knew who he worked for. He lived right next to us. One morning, I was in the backyard with the dog and he came up and said: “Good morning, wonder what the poor people are doing this morning?”
I immediately pled the 5th and said nothing else.
He didn’t think it was funny....and neither did I.
When one can be put in prison for we have video surveillance of you putting salt on your scrambled eggs on March 25th of that year... there is a problem.
Hat tip to another freeper who pointed me this way:
Why you should never talk to the police
part 1 - lawyer perspective

“never talk to law enforcement ever
never call law enforcement unless you want someone arrested or shot”
Amen to that. I’ve said a hundred times, police don’t show up with psychology manuals, they show up with guns. Never call the police on a family member if you really don’t want one of those two things to happen to them.
Completely agree.
Always remember this simple phrase: Asked and answered.
I might add that leftist prosecutors know that if they can charge a Republican officeholder in DC with lying, the alleged crime will be judged by a DC jury pool that is extremely pro Democrat. That’s why Scooter Libby didn’t have a chance.
He should take the fifth due to collusion against him by the FBI, DOJ, state department and Muller’s liberal henchmen!!!
It’s really frightening. I remember when the Left used to hate the FBI - the 60s, Black Panther days. Now they love them ‘cause they’re going after hard-working, Christian, law-abiding Republicans and conservatives.
A lot of people go to prison for lying to a federal officer.
Don’t not give statements always ask for your lawyer and always record.
The best way to shut a FBI agent down is to start recording them.
Probably itching to have an excuse to shoot Fido.
We need to make lying by police and other agencies the same punishment as lying TOO them. Perhaps if the law stated that any lie by the authorities resulted in charges being automatically dismissed....
They can ask questions that have nothing to do with the investigation.
