You never have to incriminate yourself by talking to the police, but lying to them, under certain circumstances, can be obstruction.
And it's also why your Miranda Rights remind you that you have the ability to keep your mouth shut.

You have the right, most people don't have the ability.

The 5th Amendment CLEARLY gives you the right not to incriminate yourself, but I see NOTHING in the 5th Amendment which requires an LEO to REMIND you of that right. Pure Strict Constructionism. But the liberal Warren Court pulled that nonsense out of its collective arse.

True, but if they are only questioning you they do not read you your Miranda Rights. That only comes if they arrest you.
If they are questioning you (In anticipation of a possible arrest, or simply to gather information in an investigation) they do not read you the Miranda Rights.
