Move the Congress to hold her in contempt. Republican majority will carry that vote. If a court fails to punish her for contempt, Republicans retain the issue.I am not nearly so pessimistic about obtaining a conviction for contempt, however.
Since Lerner has failed to make a proffer, the author is probably right, she has little to offer. But the committee is not without ammunition either. Besides the possible violations of laws cited, once the element of conspiracy is introduced any number of possible laws might have been broken. Lerner and lawyers must be very wary of this element because it is highly unlikely that she acted alone and the point of the investigation from a political point of view is to determine with whom it was she collaborated-or conspired.

Besides the possible violations of laws cited, once the element of conspiracy is introduced any number of possible laws might have been broken I'd be surprised if Lois and her attorney are aware of all information disclosed during interviews with dozens of IRS agents from the lowest levels in Cincy and up the ladder into Wash DC. If I may paraphrase Donald Rumsfeld - It's what you don't know you don't that kills you.

Can Congress rescind her pay? That might get her to talk. At the moment, she’s being bought.

No matter what she says and how much she lies to congress Obama can absolve her at any time.
The goal here is to get her lies out to fool Congress and take Obama off the table.
As long as she plays by Obama' rules Obama can make everything go away, he has that power.
I would go after those she has direct contact with and make them turn.
The thing about lies is there are so many people involved we need a special prosecutor.
