WASHINGTON (AP) -- Former acting attorney general Sally Yates is expected to testify to Congress next week that she warned the White House that President Donald Trump's national security adviser's contacts with the Russian ambassador could leave him compromised.

That's according to a person who's been briefed on that Jan. 26 conversation about Michael Flynn and who is knowledgeable about Yates's plans for her testimony Monday.

The person says Yates will testify she alerted White House counsel Don McGahn about discrepancies between the administration's statements on Flynn's contact with the ambassador and what really transpired. The White House fired Flynn weeks later after concluding that he had misled them about his conversation.

Yates is to appear before a Senate Judiciary subcommittee. It will be her first public account of her White House conversation.

Trump fucked up!

Nah, her hack ass needed firing.

It's not her firing that is in the cross hairs, deflecto-potamus.

Yes, Trump is usually wrong.

 

[ClosedCaption]

I'd like to hear why after Trump was warned did he not do anything besides elevate Flynn to a higher position...then allowed him to resign...then complained that it was all the press fault.

Trump saying he didn't know or hiding behind Obama won't work with this one. Hell, Flynn said himself if he did half of what Clinton did he'd be locked up.....then he got placed as the director of the Defense Intel agency.

Are Background checks meaningless?

 

[JakeStarkey]

Trump's people did not follow due diligence on Flynn, and that has come to bite him in the ass.

Yes, Trump is usually wrong.

She was a hack. She needed firing.

Pathetic attempt at deflection duly noted.

Cool, she's going to testify that they spied on Trump's staff. All while Flynn never did anything illegal.

 

[JakeStarkey]

theHawk agrees she will explain how the current admin failed in vetting Trump.

We'll see after the hearing.

There are some major questions concerning Flynn being the agent of a foreign government after serving as a General.


Top Pentagon watchdog launches investigation into money that Michael Flynn received from foreign groups

Top Pentagon watchdog launches investigation into money that Michael Flynn received from foreign groups

The Pentagon’s top watchdog has launched an investigation into money that former national security adviser and retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn received from foreign groups and whether he failed to obtain proper approval to do so, lawmakers and defense officials said Thursday.

The Pentagon has in the past advised retiring officers that because they can be recalled to military service, they are subject to the Constitution’s rarely enforced emoluments clause, which prohibits top officials from receiving payments or favors from foreign governments.

On Thursday, Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (Md.), the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, released an Oct. 8, 2014, letter in which a Defense Department lawyer warned Flynn upon his retirement from military service that he was forbidden from receiving payments from foreign sources without receiving permission from the U.S. government first.

Flynn received $45,000 to appear in 2015 with Russian President Vladimir Putin at a gala dinner for RT, a Kremlin-controlled media organization. He also worked as a foreign agent representing Turkish interests for a Netherlands-based company, Inovo BV, which paid his company $530,000 in the fall.

This could be a lot harder on Flynn than civilian courts.

Trump has been working very hard to keep Yates from testifying.

Susan Yates was fired because she refused to defend Trump's Muslim ban, saying it's unconstitutional. It is the job of the AG to point shit like this out to the President.

Yates was fired for doing her job.

Trump cannot keep Yates from testifying.

She no longer works for the President, and Congress has a right to request her testimony.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Yates is a democrat. Ergo, Yates is a liar.

The word of an Obama holdover who already proved herself to be a partisan hack is worth less than nothing.
