Trump has made it a practice to have his lawyers threaten people. From what I’ve seen, it often doesn’t work, but maybe it does often enough that it’s his first reaction. Obviously, it doesn’t work with a special investigator.

I’m guessing Trump and Co. are sociopathic and desperate enough to destroy sensitive, subpoenaed docs anyway while hoping that right wing jurists and GOP lawmakers cover for these traitors.

Steve Bannon apparently went on a rant about the idiocy of that statement. It would be like Jeffrey Dahmer telling a detective “whatever you do, don’t look in the freezer.”

Can ex-spouses be compelled to testify against one another?

The Google seems to think so…
The spouses must be married at the time that the privilege is asserted; so an ex-spouse can be compelled to give testimony about a defendant to whom he or she was previously, but is no longer, married.

For events that occurred during the marriage, unlikely, except in specific circumstances. She can, of course, testify voluntarily.

Don’t celebrate too quickly here folks - they’ve had over a year to bury the really dirty stuff.
Maybe she won’t need to be compelled to testify. She never seemed to have an especially high opinion of her father-in-law to begin with.

I’m counting on the interesting mixture of incompetence and hubris they have shown so far.

Good to know.
And at the same time, they are incredibly almost painfully incompetent.
No ‘celebrating’ here, just lots of hope…
Beat me to it.
