Brian Pagliano has just been held in contempt of Congress. And so it begins.

Because we're all ears. And we can provide you protection. Or, you can continue pleading the 5th, and you can go to jail too, where we really can't provide you much in the way of protection. Your call.

All they need to do is get Combetta on record saying that Hillary or, more likely, Cheryl Mills asked him to alter emails that were under congressional subpoena. Then he can admit that they asked him to BleachBit them, it wasn't some "Oh shit!" moment, he'd been ordered at least twice to alter or destroy evidence. And then they can announce that there is indeed intent to break any number of federal laws, reopen the investigation, and announce that Hillary is still under investigation by the FBI for violating a number of laws that have resulted in real jail time many times in the past. Comey won't really have a choice. DoJ won't do shit though, but that's OK. Just makes them look even worse.

That's pretty much exactly what Chaffetz and Gowdy are going for here.

I don't think Congress can do anything without Justice, and I don't see Justice doing anything, other than saying, "we're investigating and can't comment further." So I don't see anything happening.

That's what people have been saying for ever. But this little debacle undoes Comey's entire "No intent" safety valve. He'll have to reopen the investigation. At the very least he's going to be forced to revoke the immunity deal. The FBI can do this without involving the DoJ at all. Already there is a near-open mutiny within the FBI.

Holder was held in contempt, and that had zero effect on anything anywhere.

Sadly, Contempt of Congress doesn't equate to all that much. Nothing expedient happens over this, if anything; and even when something does happen... may be a year or two down the road yet.

That doesn't equate to giving up on this quest... but it's not going to be the October Surprise (unless this dude comes forth and spills his guts):

A. he doesn't have to

B. he's been well paid off to keep mouf shut

C. he may still want to live.

I like what he says. Will anything happen? No, the fix has been in for some time. I don't see that changing because there are too many people that would face exposure.

That is one annoying ass voice connected to a sphincter and yes, I normally avoid it. I gave in after what you said. I'm glad I did.

Edit:

For those that can't get past the lyin' ass voice:

H: Where is he? Where's Zach?
(Zach tries sneaking up on her and is body slammed by secret service)
Z: I was just trying to scare her! Getting into the Halloween spirit.
H: Not a good idea around the secret service. Are you ok?
Z: Hi, Welcome to B2F, I'm your host, and my guest today is.. Hillary... Clinton
(superimposed on screen "hilary clinton, had pneumonia)
Z: Critics have questioned some of your decision-making recently and I hope that you doing this show puts that to rest.
H: I think it proves our case, don't you?
Z: Are you excited to be the first girl president?
H: Well I mean being president would be such an extraordinary honor and responsibility, uh, but being the first woman president and what that would mean for our country and what that would mean for not just little girls but little boys too, that would be pretty special.
Z: Not to take from the historic significance of you becoming the first female president, but for a younger, younger generation, you will also become their first white president, and that's pretty neat too. As secretary, how many words per minute could you type? And how does president obama like his coffee? Like himself? weak?
H: You know, Zach, those are really out of date questions. You need to get out more.
Z: What happens if you become pregnant? Are we going to be stuck with Tim Kaine for nine months? How does that work?
H: I could send you some pamphlets that might help you understand.
Z: First you supported Obama's TransPacific Partnership deal, and then you were against it. I think the people deserve to know. Are you down with TPP?
H: I-I am not down with TPP.
Z: (Whispering) no you're supposed to say "ya you know me"... like the hip hop group.
H: Don't tell me what to say.
Z: Fine. Lose. (under his breath) and let the whole country go to shit.
Z: Let's talk about Trump.
H: Oh lets.
Z: When you see how well it works for Donald Trump, do you ever think to yourself "Oh, maybe I should be more racist?"
H: (laughing, shaking her head no)
Z: When he's elected president and Kid Rock becomes secretary of state, will you move to Canada? Or one of the arctics?
H: I would stay in the United States... and try and prevent him from destroying the United States.
Z: So you're going to lead the Civil War?
H: No - I would not take up arms. That might be extreme.
Z: Oh right, because before we started rolling you were saying how you wanted to take away everyone's guns. Very cool. Cool, cool, cool.
H: I really regret doing this.
Z: Any regrets over losing the Scott Baio vote?
H: Not a one.
Z: So it wasn't heartbreaking that - that
H: No.
Z: Ya - but chachi. I mean who's going to be next? Max Hedrum?
Z: I'd love to meet the person that makes your pant suits.
H: Oh really?
Z: Ya - because for Halloween I wanted to be a librarian from outer space.
H: I think that would be a good look on you.
Z: Have you thought about what you're going to be wearing at the debates?
H: You know, there's this thing called the double standard - so I think what should the first woman to be nominated by a major party wear? So I'm open if you have any suggestions.
Z: Have you thought about what your opponent might be wearing?
H: I assume he'll wear that red power tie.
Z: Or maybe a white power tie?
H: That's even more appropriate.
Z: When you went to Donald Trumps wedding, did, uh, he write his own vows? And did Michelle write Melanias?
H: I really couldn't see or hear very well, so I don't know. So im not sure what they were. But i'm sure they were great and huge and wonderful.
Z: Like his bowels.
Z: Chelsea, your daughter, and Ivanka, Trumps daughter are friends. Does Ivanka every call Chelsea to talk about boys that might have crushes on her? Like her dad?
H: I dont think so.
Z: What's going to be the number one focus of your presidency.
H: Oh Zach, it has to be the economy. We don't have enough jobs with rising incomes. We need an economy that works for more than just...
Z: We - we need to take a break. We need to take a break for a word from out sponsor.
(Trump commercial plays)
Z: He approves the message!
H: w-why would you play a commercial from my opponent in the middle of our interview?
Z: He paid me in steaks.
H: I'd be afraid to eat them.
Z: It's a good cut of meat, I think it's part of the asshole.
Z: Well this has been a lot of fun Mrs. Clinton. We should stay in touch. What's the best way to reach you? Email?
(hits a big red button on the table and we hear "You've got mail!")

A few new things we learned today.

1. Cheryl Mills and two other Hillary adjuncts were given immunity in the email investigations. Immunity apparently meaning "You're good, see ya!" to the FBI now.

2. Ted Cruz has endorsed Trump. Took him long enough, but good for him.

3. Hillary has to stand for 90 minutes straight. No cough breaks. I am watching so much Monday night!

I'd do links but really this stuff is all over the net right now.
