        Always get a lawyer, whether or not you did anything illegal, when talking to the FBI.

        This is critical. Also need to know that FBI agents can lie to you with impunity in an effort to get you to talk.

        Sadly, you’re probably right. The misfits in office may do anything to get noticed. The enhanced interrogation they do is already painful enough

        actually the last i heard trump & his crew okay'd waterboarding...though it might require the individual to be non-caucasian &/or catholic/christian 'combative' for THAT type of questioning, so in the end Mark Judge is 'safe' to the 11 RAPEpublicans & their schemes.

        Well they'd have to subpoena him if they are gonna get answers. So then, it's either tell the truth or plead 5th, right? If he pleads 5th, that would be bad for kavanaugh cuz it would mean Judge can't incriminate himself, right?

        Everyone who's getting a visit has been lawyered up for months. That's pretty much an element of McGahn's strategy, isn't it? This didn't come out of nowhere.

        depends on the interview and the agent and how much effort they want to put into teaching you a lesson.
