If Bannon, Meadows or Others Plead the 5th, What are Congress's Options? To Immunity and Beyond.

The House Select Committee investigating January 6 has subpoenaed many witnesses, including some who undoubtedly have a 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination. This video presents an overview of the 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination as it pertains to congressional testimony, from how Mike Flynn invoked it to resist a congressional subpoena for documents issued by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence as part of its investigation into Russian interference in our elections, to how it ended up impacting Oliver North's conviction in the 1980s as part of the Iran-Contra affair.

If someone like Steve Bannon or Mark Meadows ends up invoking a 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination, Congress will have challenging tactical choices to make. This video covers the pros and cons of congressional immunity as it relates to a witness pleading the 5th.

It makes perfect sense to be angry at the government. It might even be what “they” want. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian, which makes people angry, increases suicide, drug addiction, mental illness, and yes, domestic terrorism.

If the government can ruin so many lives that people turn to terrorism, then they can round up all the “deplorables” they always wanted to get rid of anyway.

If you become violent, they win. The government is basically good as one thing: violence. So don’t play on their turf– don’t allow them to define the battlefield.

Don’t become violent, however hard the government makes your life.

Instead, turn to building a parallel economy– competing institutions that will not only help you and other to rely less on government, but should turn you a profit in the process, for providing such valuable goods and services.

Naw, these are the new commies and allies of a deadly enemy and they proved with their support of Putin, they are an enemy 5th column of traitors and domestic terrorists. They should be treated like the commies were, cause they are even worse. When the democrats gain the advantage they will do just that, patiently and systematically destroying them starting with their election, gerrymandering, cheating and dark money, then the for profit disinformation system and terrorist wing. It's a battle between fear driven morons, who are easily manipulated, versus intelligent, patient people who have had enough bullshit. Patriots have seen the enemy, Trump drew them out of hiding onto open ground and left them defenseless and naked in broad daylight.

The main problem with your bullshit is that you don't actually say which 'government' is doing the radicalization.

You don't understand that word.

authoritarian

Authoritarianism
Form of government


Description
Description
Authoritarianism is a form of government characterized by the rejection of political plurality, the use of a strong central power to preserve the political status quo, and reductions in the rule of law, separation of powers, and democratic voting.



Like it or not, the US is a plural democracy, or at the very least, we are becoming one because that is what the majority in this country wants. Democracies are ruled by the majority. They not authoritarian but they can and do need to defend themselves from authoritarians. We can and will get rough when we must. The problem with your kind is you do not respect anything other than force. So, that's what you'll get.

You might call our actions authoritarian. You might even call it what you are -- fascist. But it's not. It is self defense.

No that's Putin, who pedo Trump sucked his ass and betrayed America to please, cause Vlad has kompromat on Donald. You are a racist traitor who supports and enables Trump, Trump was the symptom, you're the real problem. Give the dems time and they will deal with you, you'll be on the outside looking in, or on the inside looking out through bars.
