Yes, they were digging for dirt that could be used in an impeachment proceeding. But, the 18 months wasn't for refusing to testify in the impeachment trial itself.

If a sitting President can't be indicted then why was a Grand Jury empaneled? Looks like another case where there is one set of rules for a Democrat and a more relaxed set for a Republican.

recall didn’t the court say that the contempt had become punitive after it became obvious she wasn’t going to testify? I maybe confusing her with a lawyer in Pa. who was jailed for years for contempt after refusing to testify where he stashed his millions in a divorce case.

Republicans don't even flinch with their blatant hypocrisy.
And yeah, if you asked them, they'd say it was different then.
It was, Clinton is a democrat.

I made a joke about how she should have socked Tucker Carlson after some obnoxious interview he had with her, and she wrote in my book, "Lisa, do you want me to go to jail again for 'punching Tucker'?"

When Susan McDougall was in jail, her ex-husband came to her and said that there are people who want to bring the Clintons down and they'll pay both of them a lot of money if she testifies. She still refused.
