Looks like someone learned a lot from the leftist in the irs who targeted conservative and old hillary, I’m waiting for all the computers and cell phones to have been destroyed. The leftist taught people how to play the game.
I am not sure that he can. And I request our legal experts on this board to chime in on this.
As I understand it, a person can certainly plead the fifth so as not to incriminate themselves in a crime or as part of a chain that led to a crime.
However one can not plead the fifth if the question is not directly related to a crime. Therefore if Clarke is asked a question that does not relate to his direct involvement in the January 6th protest and he refuses to answer he could be fined to not cooperating with the committee. Likewise he can not use the fifth to cover for any other person then himself.
Yeah it looks like they are going to give him a chance to participate but that the 5th will simply lead to contempt charges. It’s a stall tactic that’s not likely to work. They’ll make him come to do it publicly though. Should be interesting. The due was thick into planning the coup. The DOJ were set to resign en masses if Trump tried to make him the AG.
Plenty of people now with the same policy objectives to take his place. Republicans will continue taking the working class voters from democrats and further push them into the corporate shills they have now become.
