them twice and regular interviews. he declined to answer certain questions invoking the fifth amendment. the agents thought and the prosecutors thought he had lied. they thought they had a decent chance. i think they had enough to do an indictment. if this have been bob mueller, think about what he did to papadopoulos, if he had been bob mueller or any other aggressive special counsel, they would ve indicted him and put the fear of god into him and then tried to flip him. here he lies to them twice. they give him immunity. he admits he instructed justice which is what they suspected, by erasing items that were under an order to preserve them but after admitting that, he says you know what, that crucial conversation i had about these deletions on march 25, i can remember anything about that.
