    The WH says "we are cooperating" even as it instructs witnesses not to answer questions. They are practicing the opposite of what they preach.

    Coats, Rogers, Sessions, Lewandowski, Bannon, and Donnie J. As far as I can remember (there could be more) that is the list of Drumpfster's who have refused to answer questions about the Russia investigation during congressional testimony. Then we have Flynn and Papadopoulos who have plead guilty to lying to the FBI. For an admin with nothing to hide by all appearances they actually do.

    For me, I like sitting back and enjoying the show. What will be will be all in good time.

    Stevo has already told Mueller he will testify as a cooperating witness. So he will answer questions without having to be brought before the grand jury. The only question is how truthful his answers will be.

    My guess is, if those answers don't follow the narrative the left has created, the reaction will be that all his answers were lies.

    You wish. Bannon didn't trust DC to begin with. You think he really is going to Trust it now??? Ditto almost every non swamp monster in the administration

    To be sure the hysterical crusade upon which the left has launched itself can have its fun moments but it is also enjoyable to let the air of sanity in amongst the mad rabble composed in the main of the Washington intelligentsia, left and right, whose pomposity, arrogance, and disregard for the American people they so misgovern becomes more manifest every day.

    I'd say most liberals will defend the 2nd amendment. OTOH, well thought out gun control policies are not the same thing as scrapping it. Despite the paranoia of the hard liners.

    But, as you know, it is Repubs who favor policies that are unpopular with the majority.

    5th Amendment comes to mind. Lois Lerner also comes to mind.

    Because the courts have already established a precedent going back to Watergate requiring him to testify. Besides, he has nothing to hide, right?

    There’s little dispute over Mueller’s power to interview Trump in connection with his probe into Russian interference into the 2016 election. Every president since Watergate except Barack Obama has been directly involved in a federal criminal investigation while serving in office. All but George H.W. Bush agreed to submit to questioning.

    Did Bannon invoke the 5th?

    No he did not. He simply refused to answer...as did many Trump people

    If Bannon takes the fifth...HE comes under investigation to determine what he is protecting himself from.

    You think he wants that?

    The fifth is not a "get out of jail free" card

    Do you blame them? Particularly noting Mueller's witchhunt and procedural BS pinned on Flynn, it's wise move.

    They don't have the legal right to refuse.
