Was going to say this. I guess I'll go with, but her emails, what about Joe Biden, witch hunt, deep state, and unconstitutional impeachment (that is specifically listed in the constitution). That should cover it.

Getting indicted didn't prevent Michael Cohen from testifying, but it's probably going to be a while before they can appear.
Might've been covered in the other articles, but the Miami Herald highlighted their potential mob ties.
This could work out well, hopefully.
Now they're threatened with prison. Now let them testify and see if they squeal.
Yeah, the timing is awful. Unless someone has some "suicide in their cells" lined up for them.
Probably this.
I think the same. They didn't want the House to interfere with their investigation.
That's a falling domino
They'd have to arrange things with SDNY now, so schedule's probably been changed.

This worries me that SDNY will try to get them into a favorable plea agreement and then lock away their confessions.
Barr has a stranglehold over that office.
That seems like a very likely guess.
An in-depth piece on Parnas and Fruman from a few months back:
I absolutely do not trust Barr or anything remotely attached to DOJ. I don't think Barr has even given Congress a reason for shutting down the finance investigation into Individual-1 yet.
But I'm happy these dudes have been contained before they can (potentially) flee the country.
It would not shock me to learn that half the elected republican party is involved.
Which, ironically makes impeachment almost impossible unless some congressmen and senators start getting pulled to jail.
Never got a reason why those GOP senators and congressmen went to Moscow on July 4th.
