Obama Could Face Grand Jury Over \u2018Russiagate\u2019: Report"},"content":{"rendered":"

Just the News investigative journalist John Solomon stated that former President Barack Obama can now be compelled to testify before a grand jury and cannot invoke the Fifth Amendment because of protections previously granted by presidential immunity.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Once summoned before a grand jury, Obama would be required to testify under oath, Solomon said Wednesday evening. If he were to misrepresent or lie about any aspect of his official conduct, his presidential immunity could be forfeited from the moment the falsehood is made.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

That single act, committed as a private citizen, could unravel the legal protections he previously enjoyed under the Constitution and judicial precedent, Solomon insisted.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

On January 5, 2017, then-President Obama presided over a White House meeting where the FBI had just closed its investigation into incoming National Security Adviser Mike Flynn. According to Solomon, senior officials then crafted a plan: lure Flynn into an interview, catch him in a lie, and prosecute him for making false statements.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In fact, former FBI Director James Comey has admitted in open conversations in the past that he assisted in setting the trap, which has been\u00a0confirmed\u00a0through legal filings and other reporting.<\/p>\n

Now, Solomon cautions, Obama could find himself facing a similar scenario\u2014one he allegedly helped set in motion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know President Trump has every right to be frustrated with him. I think President Trump\u2019s analysis last week was right. \u2018I think my immunity rule might protect him on the original charges,\u2019\u201d Solomon said on Real America\u2019s Voice.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what most legal experts tell me \u2014 that that ruling is so sweeping, it will protect Obama for what he did in office. However, Barack Obama can now be summoned before a grand jury,\u201d Solomon continued. \u201cHe cannot take the Fifth Amendment because he has immunity from prosecution. He\u2019ll have to tell the truth.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he lies as a private citizen about what he did as President, he\u2019ll no longer have that immunity,\u201d Solomon claimed.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd that is a trap that Obama is potentially facing. I want to say \u2014 the irony of that is significant, because on January 5, 2017, he presided over a meeting in the White House where the FBI had just cleared Mike Flynn of any wrongdoing,\u201d the journalist continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd they schemed in that meeting how they might be able to jam up Mike Flynn. They came up with the idea: \u2018We\u2019ll lure him into an interview, catch him in a lie, and then prosecute him that way.\u2019 Barack Obama is now about to face a potentially similar situation \u2014 one he unfairly created for Mike Flynn,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
