5A? You cannot be compelled to testify against yourself nor can you be compelled to testify to anything that might incriminate you. Even if you are innocent, you cannot be forced to testify.

You still have to show up and sit there... You can't just text "5a bro" and get out of it. Like, it's on a question by question basis, and he could pull a Lil Woody, but he still has to show up and say "I plead the fifth" everytime they ask a question.

Rather than the fifth amendment I don't think they can bring in witnesses without any proven connection to the crimes? Bill Clinton might have been in the same room as Trump and Epstein a couple of times, but if they have something more concrete in the Epstein files they certainly have not released such.
