I thought she said she had broken no laws and had done nothing wrong? Why would she suddenly need immunity to give testimony? On top of that the HoR already ruled she had waived her 5th Amendment rights by giving a statement to the House Oversight Committee.
If there were any real governing going on in DC, the HoR would order an arrest warrant and toss her skanky ass in jail until she testified. Of course they're going to not do that because of the symbiotic relationship pols have with bureaucrats.
Suffice to say this c_nt will probably never get what she really deserves.
Lois Lerner’s price for testimony: Immunity

Embattled IRS official Lois Lerner will not testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee unless she’s given immunity from prosecution, her lawyer told POLITICO Tuesday.
“They can obtain her testimony tomorrow by doing it the easy way … immunity,” William W. Taylor III said in a phone interview. “That’s the way to resolve all of this.”
The comments reflect the hard-line approach Lerner, the former head of the IRS division that scrutinized conservative groups, and her legal team are taking in defending her role in the agency’s scandal.
Taylor, a founding partner of Zuckerman Spaeder LLP, is even shrugging off the possibility that the full House might vote to hold Lerner in contempt.
“None of this matters,” he said. “I mean, nobody likes to be held in contempt of Congress, of course, but the real question is one that we’re fairly confident about, and I don’t think any district judge in the country would hold that she waived.”
