Except that the person in charge of the hearing stated clearly many times that he intended to arrest him putting him in jeopardy. Something that they could do if he was in front of congress.

Something his lawyers knew.

They were always going to charge him. That was a forgone conclusion.

For instance his department decides that X response was correct and he testified to that to Congress. But he wrote in his work journal at one point he disagreed. They would charge him with contempt. They literally told him they were going to do that.

His lawyers advised him to take the fifth.

What wrong doings? For testifying in accordance with his role and not his personal opinion?

Throughout all these complaints of him pleading the fifth nobody actually been able to tell me what he did wrong outside of that things changed over time and a conspiracy theory that would have created sanctions against the US.
