Impeachment is not criminal prosecution. Constitutional law 101, bro.
Um, yeah, that's the whole point of a whole section of the report.
I just laid that out in my previous post.

US attorney manual
The US attorney manual cites United States v Higgins, 511 F. Supp. 453 and United States v Scaratow, 137 F. Supp. 620 when it states:
Now...in 118 pages, the fine conservative folks at Brookings failed to even address this issue. That the precedent and even the US Attorney Manual States FBI investigations aren't proceeding under the code. Why do you think that is?

Let me give you some precedents....
Fast and Furious - no prosecution
IRS targeting scandal - no prosecution
Lynch/Clinton tarmac meeting - no prosecution
Clinton Foundation receiving illegal contributions- no prosecution
Hillary Clinton “pay for play” - no prosecution
Benghazi cover up - no prosecution
Hillary email scandal - no prosecution
All of these cases have vastly more substantial evidence, including intent, to prosecute. They won’t and likely never will. The DC swamp is really showing its hand if it goes after Trump in this flimsy premise outlined in your “report,” especially considering all the above.
