His rights are not “constitutional.” They do not arise from a piece of paper or from law.

His rights come from God and are inalienable.

The constitution merely enumerates his rights.

That’s fine, he can take the Fifth. And when someone flips on him he can do the max.

They better all enjoy their last two months of freedom. After the election, heads will roll and the new DOJ will prosecute. Nothing for Trump to lose even if the Democrats win.

Waterboarding has proven effective.

More effective with with LSD administered. They never come back though so the whole later use to testify is out.

Bank records showed that Glenn Simpson’s firm was paid by the Democrat National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign through the law firm Perkins Coie. Didn’t President Obama say his was the most transparent administration ever? Wasn’t President Obama the titular head of the Democrat Party in 2016? Glenn Simpson needs to testify in public, under oath. If he wants to take the fifth, let’s hear him do just that.
Who, besides himself, Fusion GPS, his associates, and his paymasters is Glenn Simpson protecting? Fascinating.

All that means nothing if no one will investigate which no one seems to want to do.

Does an English non-citizen even have constitutional rights?

Liberals will assure you that illegal aliens have those rights, so Simpson should too.

Open hearing, let the country hear him take the 5th on every single question under oath.

And compel him to speak the magic words himself. Don't let him weasel out by using his lawyer for that.
