Thank you. I haven't been following the Twitter files so I wasn't sure what your previous post referred to.
Unfortunately, I think neither of the scenarios you described are likely. The House proposes funding bills, it's true, but those bills don't pass without Senate and presidential sign-off. Similarly, if somebody lies to congress, Congress can refer them to the justice department, but it's the executive branch that would execute the prosecution. Even if one could pin Dorsey on a specific lie (and it would be really easy for him to claim that they don't silence conservative voices, just their perception of unfactual information), I doubt it's expedient for this administration to press the issue.
The House of Representatives controls the money for the FBI. The Senate, as you might know does not.
The FBI should be anticipating a haircut.

Jack Dorsey can certainly be prosecuted for perjury.
