If Congress thinks that DOJ's failure to prosecute is obstructive, they can add that to impeachment claims


is my point. I.e., it can be used as a tool to speed up an investigation into Prince. Especially since we are already seeing the shennigans of Barr.

Barr is scheduled to testify this week (tomorrow in the Senate and Thursday in the House). This is where the rubber meets the road for "obstruction" and "obstructive" and they don't have to wait until DOJ prosecutes or not to not include adding the fact that a referral was made, to their pile of other evidence that they have gathered that might support certain articles of impeachment.

I.e., the whole issue of Prince would be irrelevant if not for his direct connection to the subject of "Russian influence" on the U.S. elections that Congress has been investigating, with the info (however redacted it is at the moment) of the Mueller Report being one piece and this (whatever the outcome) being another piece, along with all the other prosecutions that have already occurred previously.
