1. There seems to be a general consensus that, if you accept a pardon, you lose your 5th Amendment right not to incriminate yourself. If so, could you be called before Congress to testify about your imputed offenses?
2. What if you were asked if you committed any crimes during the period covered by your pardon? If you denied this, could any evidence that you did commit a crime be used to charge you with perjury?
Thoughtful replies would be appreciated. Otherwise , why not just move on?
