Yep:

WASHINGTON — A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the 5th Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups.

Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening — or why she didn’t disclose it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor III. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.


You know how you know someone told the truth when they (lied) spoke to the media about this?

They invoke their 5th Amendment rights when called to speak under oath.

If he didn't plead the 5th then Obama would've had to step in and be the first President to not only exhibit his fake rage about the incident but then have to invoke executive order to protect his involvement.

Anyone remember that episode of Dave Chapelle when he was pleading the fifth.

Sorry Cano, I couldn't find the actual video without some turning it into a terrible remix or filming it off their tv.

Easy way around that--just offer her immunity.  She cannot take the 5th under that circumstance.

Looks like this good little bureaucrat goofed:

"She's in trouble. She can be held in contempt," Dershowitz told "the Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV.
