A 'Bivens Action' in the Future for Comey and/or McCabe?

This is getting really interesting.

Former US attorney: Flynn case was 'manipulated' at highest levels of Obama admin to go after Trump

Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn's rights were violated and he should consider a lawsuit against the Department of Justice and former Obama administration officials, former U.S. attorney Brett Tolman said Friday on "Fox & Friends."

"That's why there is an action called a Bivens action. That is to go after a federal investigator that violates someone's constitutional rights. It's specific for that occasion and I hope is he looking at it strongly," said Tolman, an attorney who served as a federal prosecutor in Utah from 2006 to 2009.​

​

Flynn’s lawyers said this week that newly uncovered notes from former FBI official Peter Strzok indicate then-FBI Director James Comey appeared to downplay Flynn’s calls during the presidential transition with Russia's ambassador as “legit” during a meeting where then-President Barack Obama and then-Vice President Joe Biden also weighed in....​

​

On Wednesday, after a federal appeals court ordered Flynn’s case be dismissed, Powell filed the notes and claimed they produced “further stunning and exculpatory evidence” that was previously withheld from Flynn. Tolman concurred, saying that it points to the highest levels of the FBI, including former Director James Comey and his deputy, Andrew McCabe.​

​

"That should concern everyone that they still, somehow, found a way to manipulate a case and bring it when they deemed his underlying action as being legitimate," said Tolman, explaining that McCabe "saved the case from being dismissed."​

From the article:

This prosecutor must know that lying to the FBI remains a crime if there is no underlying offense. So this man's point is completely irrelevant. This article is so vague and lacks opposing opinion, it's the typical garbage from Fox News. It even uncritically quotes Powell, as if she matters much.

As for complaining about manipulation of the case from high levels of the government, that's exactly what we've seen from the Trump administration.

Do we really need to say it? I mean, it's been going on for years.

Flynn said he didn't talk to Kislyak about sanctions.
He definitely talked to Kislyak about sanctions.

There ya go. That's the lie. It's illegal.

Factually incorrect. Flynn definitely lied. He said he didn't talk about sanctions. He did indeed talk about sanctions. The FBI never claimed otherwise.

He did not say that - the end.

Didn't say what exactly? There's two conversations, one with Kislyak, one with the FBI.

The transcript from the call to Kislyak published by the Trump admin says he talked Sanctions.

Michael Flynn transcripts released, calls with Russian diplomat detailed

Michael Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 to lying to the FBI about his conversations with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. at the time, Sergey Kislyak. Earlier this month, the Department of Justice moved to drop its case against Flynn.

www.cnbc.com

The notes and 302 from the FBI agents say he denied it.

Feds release Flynn interview notes

Flynn's new defense team has mounted an extraordinarily broad attack on Mueller’s team and the FBI.

So he did say that. On both accounts.

The end.

Incorrect -
The original 302's indicated that he didn't remember whether or not sanctions were brought up.

I have explained this to you personally before - your hatred for Patriotic American's seem to not allow you to understand.
You have little to no credibility here - this hill makes no sense to die on.

Nope. The original 302 did not say that. This is the original 302:

You failed, yet again, so you're running away. Which is how this usually goes. When I point out your BS, you stop off without backing any of it up.

That's how weak you are.
