Stemming from Hillary's email technician Bryon Pagliano not showing up for a scheduled House committee inquiry a while back, the House Committee voted to recommend Pagliano be held in Contempt of Congress !!

The full House will probably vote soon and if he is found to be in Contempt, the Obama Administration will again be on the hot seat.

Obama will have to choose wisely or Hillary could suffer some big vote damage.

Something is really being hidden with this whole caper.

Many things are getting exposed lately and are verified.

House investigators vote to hold Clinton’s email tech in contempt after second no-show


The House’s investigative committee voted Thursday to hold Hillary Clinton’s chief tech staffer in contempt of Congress after Bryan Pagliano failed, for a second time, to show up and testify about the secret emails of his former boss.

Mrs. Clinton last year urged Mr. Pagliano to cooperate with investigations into her emails, but he has refused to talk to two congressional committees. He did speak to the FBI after being granted immunity.

The 19-15 committee vote Thursday is a recommendation, which now goes to the whole House.

If the contempt charge is approved, it likely would be up to the administration to pursue the case against Mr. Pagliano.

With the trail of bodies Clinton leaves in her wake, can you blame the tech for holding out?

Bet he hangs himself anyway...

Contempt of congress, eh?

I have to wonder why it is legal to offer immunity to people who aid and abet felonies.

I found Trey Gowdy's comments today very revealing,
listen to the end, its worth the 4 1/2 minutes.

Man Mr. Growdy is really angry someone didn't want to come and play in his witch-hunt. He goes on to say he read the immunity agreement then says he doesn't know if the agreement lets the witness talk to congress and bitches about double-speak lol. He also doesn't seem to know that the FBI doesn't prosecute people.

Contempt of Congress. It should mean that Congress is accomplishing nothing useful for the country.

Get this man strung up and go back to invading countries and taking payoffs from corporations.

But it would cost taxpayers less if he just testified right?

Well yes if Gowdy came out and testified its all been a witch-hunt to smear the Clinton campaign it would have saved money.

Laws that require people to appear if subpoenaed
by congress are clearly only for ordinary people,
and ordinary people who do not have lawyers paid
for by The Clinton's.

Because Clinton didn't show up to congress and she has lawyers paid for by the Clintons.

Hillary does not appear before Congress and she paid her lawyer...

I think I believe in the Mandela Effect now.

I'm sure he's shaking in his boots:


The criminal offense of "contempt of Congress" sets the penalty at not less than one month nor more than twelve months in jail and a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000. en.wikipedia.org...

Just to let you all know, I live in S.C. and Gowdys accent is what it sounds like if you drive away from the beach for about ten minutes going inland and the further west you go it gets worse until you reach Colorado. Pagliano should be arrested, If any one of us did that we would be screwed, oh unless Hillarys lawyer told him its cool, the doj, and president are our friends his lawyer says.

Interesting rules from the DC Bar ethics opinions.

Ethics Opinion 358


D.C. Legal Ethics Opinion 31 (1977) concluded that it was a violation of the former Code of Professional Responsibility for a congressional staff lawyer to require a witness to appear before a congressional committee when the committee has been informed that the witness will invoke the self-incrimination privilege as to all substantive questions “and the sole effect of the summons will be to pillory the witness.” The committee declines a request to vacate Opinion 31 but notes that under the D.C. Rules of Professional Conduct, as under the former Code of Professional Responsibility, a violation occurs only where the summons serves no substantial purpose “other than to embarrass, delay, or burden” the witness.
