not a lawfag and apologies if this has been discussed already, but does Q's latest drop mean that members of congress are not exempted from testifying as witnesses in a criminal trial??

anons, you're missing something
Q specifically linked to the third essay: United States v. Cooper, 4 U.S. (4 Dall.) 341 (C.C. Pa. 1800).
see >>9127351
this is a GOOD thing. from what i understand, it means if subpoenaed, members of congress are not exempt from testifying in court. there is precedent that they are required to testify (again from what i understant)
the following 4th essay is linked to this sentence: "The phrase treason, felony or breach of the peace is interpreted to withdraw all criminal offenses from the operation of the privilege."
aka members of congress can be subpoenaed AND are have no privilege for ANY criminal offense, not just treason, felony, or breach of the peace
