I really do have a question regarding Flynn....a question that goes beyond partisanship.....
Flynn was in military intelligence, once headed (and was later fired) the DIA with the Obama administration, and was tagged to be NSA chief under Trump......
With the above background, HOW could Flynn not know that his telephone conversations with the Russians would be monitored (and probably recorded)???
Further, the FBI employs a method that somewhat smacks of entrapment; that is, to ask a question whose answer the FBI already knows but is baiting the interviewee into lying......Such was the case with Flynn when the FBI asked him about the "nature" of his phone calls with the Russians.
Now, either Flynn is a complete idiot.....(which I doubt).....OR, Flynn opted for the relatively lesser culpability in lying to the FBI hoping that his boss, Trump, would get him off the hook.
The wily Mueller has shown us just a glimpse of what Flynn has divulged to his investigators, and the following weeks should slowly reveal a heck of a lot more of what went on in those campaign days and first few weeks from election to inauguration.
There is much "quid pro quo" between Russia and Trump and the obstruction of justice allegations to soon see the light of day.......Hang on to your hats, the rough ride will be bumpy.
Had there been ANY conspiracy/collusion charge Flynn would have been indited on one. The fact Flynn was not indited on that charge makes it very likely that Mueller has NOTHING and this is a scare tactic and politically motivated in response to Trump getting a win on tax reform.
What does the timing of the release of this information say about Mueller's integrity as a prosecutor? Political whore!
This looks like the last dot in Mueller's fantasy.. There is no collusion or he would have indited Flynn with it to gain his compliance. The conduct of contacting Russian officials after the election is legitimate and was done as well by Obama and his team. Lets ignore that however..
There is nothing here.. That is why CBS/ABC and others had to retract Joy Bayhar's statements... Got them all hot and bothered by nothing at all.. Nothing but a deflection on Trumps massive win on taxes..
