As if Congress would actually do anything about it if the FBI did give them the paperwork.

So please explain exactly what they need to do. They can gather information and evidence, expose it and make referrals to the DOJ for prosecution. What they can't do is arrest and prosecute. So, if you were there what would you be doing that they are not? And for that matter, why aren't you there doing it?

“What they can’t do is arrest and prosecute.”

You are so full of crap.

“In the U.S. and its territories, FBI special agents may make arrests for any federal offense committed in their presence or when they have reasonable grounds to believe that the person to be arrested has committed, or is committing, a felony violation of U.S. laws.”

“Federal law gives the FBI authority to investigate all federal crime not assigned exclusively to another federal agency (28, Section 533 of the U.S. Code). Title 28, U.S. Code, Section 533, authorizes the attorney general to appoint officials to detect and prosecute crimes against the United States.“

The Flash Gorden cult here on FR loves to assign powers to Congress that it doesn’t have and then scream like little girls when Congress doesn’t use the powers it doesn’t have.
