Can Member of the House Comittee Who Insist "No Collusion" Be Indicted For Obstruction of Justice?

[McCamy Taylor]

I ask because of this story about a member of the committee who has now gone public to insist that the only reason he found "no collusion" was because he was not told to look for collusion. Seems to me that he has been talking to a criminal defense attorney.

On a related note, so many Republicans are demanding that Trump NOT fire Mueller. People like Ryan. Have their lawyers been telling them that this is their best defense against an obstruction of justice charge? Even as they secretly help Trump and Russia collude?

Looks to me like everyone in DC expects this to end up in court or Congress (or court) or both and is acting accordingly except Trump who probably still entertains fantasies of being rescued by Putin on a white horse.

1. "and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place"

US Constitution, Article I, Section 6, Clause 1

2. Once again the Speech and Debate Clause

There for a reason, but at times infuriating.
