So, the Committee had better ask the questions they want, because I suspect they will take the "Fifth" from this point forward?
It will be a big mistake if they are not put under oath, in my opinion.
From this point forward, the White House will stonewall the investigators and the Congress and will call it a "witch-hunt" and refuse to participate in the continuing Democratic "hoax".
Just my opinion.

Transcript via CNNs State Of The Union:
TAPPER: Nothing to hide. Youre willing to testify under oath, all of that. Except were being told now that theyre going to testify behind closed doors and not under oath.

FRANKEN: No. Thats not good enough. They should be under oath.

I realize it's not a formal oath as we'd all prefer, but I'd be interested in how they would answer.
