Great, what are the consequences for lying under oath?
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?
Because in the end, law enforcement agencies depend more on the people in power that the other way around
They're more like guidelines
Like our good old 'rules based international order'
Bill Clinton was impeached, not for getting a BJ, but for lying about said BJ to congress.
