Great, what are the consequences for lying under oath?

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 24 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Jail. But only if it’s convicted and enforced. I’m pretty sure it’s also extra illegal to lie under oath to congress, or something.

Why is no one enforcing these laws anymore?

Isn't the enforcer...Pam Bondi?

Sorry, I don’t know much about the US justice system

Because in the end, law enforcement agencies depend more on the people in power that the other way around

Bill Clinton was impeached, not for getting a BJ, but for lying about said BJ to congress.
