Are spouses prevented from testifying against each other?

I think the option is there in a court case where someone is charged . This has not got to that place yet .

a reply to: Phage

Maybe they were just headed to a bar for a drink.

Could be but the language may have went something like ..He was dragged to the bar . Or if someone like a Stormy Daniels was involved it could have been being escorted to the bar .

Or we could repeat the Wisdom of George Carlin

We are the proud parents of an honor student of midvale school, at the Franklin School or some other indoctrination center or some other crappy institution where their child has been stripped of their individuality, and turned into an obedient soul dead conformist member of the American Consumer Culture. - George Carlin.

I hope they don't forget to invite his favorite adulterous squeeze Lisa Page to the party!Maybe they can implicate each other.

I think Strozk and Page had better scoot down to Vegas for a quickie-wed so they can't be forced to testify against each other as spouses...

Maybe Comey and McCabe should do the same? It's legal now, right?

You raise a curious point. Are spouses prevented from testifying against each other?

I believe spouses can testify against each other if they wish to, but can't be compelled by law to testify. And I'm not sure if that can be backdated, as in if they weren't married at the time of the offence.

I believe that's why Huma called off the proposed divorce proceedings against Weiner following the underage sexting stuff - once the material on his laptop was discovered, she decided to stay married to him. Kind of feels like it was only in order to prevent being called to testify against each other...

Not sure how it works with non-marital relationships, or even de facto. Probably wouldn't apply.

12 nutjobs in Congress sent a letter.

"Nutjobs" with AUTHORITY can be good or bad. In this case, GOOD. In Comey's case, BAD.

They don't have any more AUTHORITY than any other Representative or Senator. As I said, these twelve wrote a letter. Congresspersons "refer" matters all the time for investigation ... because that's what our Legislative Branch has become, political bias central (and this is true of Republicans and Democrats).

My point earlier (as I initially misread your comment) was that one of the committees had made an official statement to DOJ regarding your laundry list of villians.

They hadn't, you were just talking about the letter in April as if it were new or more significant than it is.

Of note, I hope Mr. Huber (who seems like a real investigator and not a partisan hack) is looking into these matters. Maybe one or two of them can be put to rest.

It doesn't matter what he says. You have made up your mind and if he tells the truth you will believe he is lying.

The fascinating thing that I've observed in this most recent IG kerfluffle is that the IG report consisted of about 99% of what had been released through various media sources particularly in the last six months.

In January the Strzok/Page texts were discovered ... and Republicans and their mouthpieces/allies went nuts making absurd claims and calling for the Mueller probe to end because ... someone said mean things about Trump.

In the middle of May (last month) the New York Times published an article about the secret (so as not to affect the election) trip of two FBI Agents (Strzok was one) to London in early November 2016 to take the statement of the AUSTRAILIAN AMBASSADOR that there were two members of Trumps campaign that were either working for or working with Russian agents. Source.

When IG Horowitz mentioned that fact in session, the Republicans got to make the totally unsubstantiated suggestion that Strzok helped Steele compose the "dossier" ... which is so patently absurd I'm not even going to untangle the timeline.

The crisis actors in Congress (both sides) all got to grandstand and play out the drama of discovery with the release of Horowitz's report on the Clinton Investigation.

Its a puppet-show. Strzok's appearance will be the same. I think he showed GALACTICALLY bad judgement using company devices to text his girlfriend but there is nothing yet that provides any evidence for him doing anything wrong.

Mentioned in the report as well as in the IG testimony the issue of the "bridge" Its thought that establishing that bridge marker time frame and the time line is hoped to untangle . Strzok headed two investigations .That means he started two and finished two .

Did he finish two?

The Russia investigation in the FBI (not Mueller's investigation) started a few days after Strzok and the other agent got back from London after meeting with the Australian ambassador.

The "5th" comes when he gets questions about the 302s

The altered ones, the fabricated ones, and the missing ones.

They had to meet in person to get the story straight.

I wonder if he will be wearing his pink vagina hat.

Seriously though, what can he say that we don't already know?

a reply to: DBCowboy


I thought the I.G. report was thorough, but asking Horowitz questions, illuminated a few critical things. Such as, Rosenstein hid the text message of Strzok saying "Well Stop Trump".

Well we know he was pulled of the second one that is still not complete so in that sense he finished it . Its the "bridge" timing that has people like yourself confused in trying to unwind it .

No it would have had to started before then . The trip to London was a part of the investigation . The decision to go must have been made before going and the reason was to investigate .

As I understand it, the data provided by the Australian ambassador is what formed the core of the Russia investigaton.

The FISA info is going to be another important piece of the puzzle ...see vid above

Well, he was escorted out of the FBI building and he's lost his security clearance, so he doesn't exactly present as a trustworthy fellow...

Well, nothing will make an ideological scapegoat look any better, but as far as I know, the escort out of the building and the loss of security clearance is standard for an agent at that level under disciplinary review.
