That undermines
Pence's claim that he was totally ignorant of Pence's Russia ties and that Flynn had lied to him about it.
That supposed lie, remember, was the justification Trump gave for firing Flynn.
Oh the tangled web we weave........LOL
Still updating. Today Trump issued an official TWEET that the reason he fired Flynn was that he lied to both Pence, and the FBI.
This is seem like a minor change, but it means Trump also fired Flynn for violating 18 USC 1001, the felony Flynn pled guilty to.
So when Trump asked Comey (head of the FBI) to go easy on Flynn, he was asking the head of the FBI to ignore the crime Flynn just committed. Which obviously is an obstruction of justice.
