Louis Lerner continues to take the 5th the court of public opinion it appears that there is guilt. Is she protecting herself, is she covering for someone else. If you are not guilty of anything just answer the questions. Cummings is tired of a one sided investigation.
You can plea the 5th but you must plea the 5th to EVERYTHING.. Answer ONE question, and you've waived your right to plea..
LOL... wrong. There is no US law, statute, rule, regulation or court decision saying that someone cannot plead the 5th at any time they want. Whatever they may have said before they pled can certainly be used against them. But one cannot "implicitly" waive the 5th permanently.

Except... darn.... your sources agree with me completely!
Here for just one example:
Gosh... that's exactly what I said.
Congressional immunity does not protect her from prosecution. It only protects her from prosecution on charges stemming from her testimony.
It is breathtaking how anxious you guys always are to pontificate on issues about which you apparently know nothing, and then how you desperately hang onto that ignorance even after you've been pointed to what is actually true.
Oliver Norths conviction was overturned because he was granted immunity even though none of his testimony was used to convict him.
Then Louis Lerner should just answer the damn questions and be done with it. She won't so that leads us to ask who orchestrated this operation? Who is Louis Lerner protecting?

Prove it.
Show me the law.

Ohio v. Reiner, 532 U.S.17 (2001), citing Hoffman v. U.S., 351 U.S.479 (1951); cf. Counselman v. Hitchcock, 142 U.S.547 (1892)
The first and foremost job of the IRS is to apply the law equually.
No. The first and foremost job of the IRS is to collect taxes.

You are wrong. On Page 5 of the IG's report, the word "Progressive" was absolutely on the BOLO.

What is at the very heart of this controversy is 100% of conservative groups with terms like tea party in their name were flagged for scrutiny while liberal groups with terms like Progressive either were not scrutinized or skated through the process.
They didnt state any facts, they asked a question.
Perhaps you need to also look up what "assumes facts not in evidence" means.
