Can Congress members be indicted? Rachel segment

[OliverQ]

Rachel was asking about any precedent for Congress members committing obstruction to help a criminal in the White House. There really isn't any precedent for them being prosecuted/indicted for that behavior.

What are the odds people like Nunes, Meadows, Jordan, Gaetz, etc. will face criminal consequences for their obstruction?

1. Tom DeLay and Duke Cunningham come to mind

If they committed a crime they will likely be indicted

[Wellstone ruled]

2. Believe there was a

congressman from Ohio also . Powell?

3. I think it is fairly easy to indict congressman..

There has been no ambiguity on that question like the one about the president.

[Wellstone ruled]

5. If Team Mueller has

hard evidence of Trump involved in or creating a crime,you know Rosenstein will tell Team Mueller to charge him with a crime.

Watched two conferences were Rosenstein was the Key-Note. He is going to be one tough cookie on anyone who the Justice Department feels broke the law.

4. Of course they can be indicted

Menendez.


And if they can be indicted they certainly can be indicted for the federal crime of obstruction.

6. Rosenstein implied they may be guilty of obstruction to try to impeach him.

7. Nunes needs to be charged with obstruction of justice
