CNN’s Toobin: Flynn’s Attorneys Are on ‘Very Solid Ground’

‘Congress can get his testimony but they would have to give him immunity which would make it impossible for him to be prosecuted’

RUSH EXCERPT:
TOOBIN: “I think Flynn’s lawyers are on very solid ground here. You know, it doesn’t take much to allow an assertion of a Fifth Amendment privilege. The courts have always been very deferential to individuals to allow them to take the Fifth. Congress has a remedy. Congress can get the documents. Congress can get his testimony but they would have to give him immunity which would make it impossible for him to be prosecuted and that’s where there’s a potential conflict between the criminal investigation and the investigation by Robert Mueller. Immunity in this stage of the investigation is almost certainly off the table but down the line that may be the only way — that is the only way that Congress could get his testimony.”
