I guess you missed the thread yesterday where we were discussing how the phrase "and so it begins..." had been used more times than a cheap D.C. prostitute.
Or maybe you were there ?
Is Witness protection available ?
Well, D'OH!
There is absolutely NO downside to refusing to testify, for the express purpose of avoiding self incrimination.
If there was no possibility of self-incrimination, only physical evidence can determine if a crime has been committed.
I assume that testifiers are questioned under oath.
If the purpose of invoking the Fifth is to avoid incriminating others, then perjury has been committed.
Isn't that also a serious crime?
Setting up a private server is not a crime.
Directing someone else to set up a private server, knowing that it IS a crime, is prosecutable.
He was employed to do what she asked concerning electronics/technology. She, however, will let him hang so I would take the 5th, too.
Won’t be long before Huma, Cheryl, Bill and others do the same thing.

Bingo. I had this guy pegged as the key man the moment it came out that he had set up her server.

His alternative to pleading the Fifth was to be the latest entry in the Clinton Body Count, so this doesn’t come as a huge surprise.
> Is Witness protection available ?
WITSEC wouldn’t protect someone from the likes of Hillary or Obama. Way too many connections and weak security links
Setting up a private server knowing its purpose was to be a conduit for the selling of national security secrets might be a crime.

Yeah, like they did with Lois Learner.
The article states Mills is supposed to testify tomorrow. Must be a closed hearing because I haven’t found anything on C-SPAN or the Select Committee’s site about it. Drat!
Great call. I’m wondering if he was upfront with her about the lack of security in a home brewed system, but she overrode his warnings and said do it anyhow. He had to know it could be compromised.
Bryan Pagliano...how he disgraces we Americans of Italian descent.
The important part is that Bryan Pagliano knows where the backups of the server which contain evidence of Clinton's high treason are!
The House Benghazi Committee rejected a request from Cheryl Mills, Hillary Clinton’s former chief of staff at the State Department, to have her testimony occur in a public session later this week, a source close to Mills said.
Mills’ desire for open testimony — a request made because she fears Republicans will leak selected information that casts her in a negative light — is just the first disagreement in what’s likely to be a tense session Thursday, when she appears before the panel a day before Jake Sullivan, Clinton’s top policy guru, is also hauled in for questions.
It will come down to the meaning of the word “IT”.
You can bet there will be may more. Hopefully there will be a whistle blower or two coming out of it. Hillary’s pot was on simmer, and it appears its beginning to boil. I’ll wait for the lid to pop. Maybe she’ll end up as a bagger at the commissary at Ft Leavenworth. Wishful thinking I’m sure, for her the privilege factor carries a lot of weight.
