Trump’s ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn charged with lying to FBI

[Shabibilicious]

It will be interesting to see if Flynn rolls over to save his son from the flames.  Also, more than likely we are about to see just how much loyalty Gen. Flynn has for Donald Trump.  Will he be a presidential pardon recipient....all but condemning the potus?  Oh, the intrigue.

Thanks Mods...It's appreciated

Still trying to decipher this one...so if Flynn lied about meeting with the Russian Ambassador and it is in the context of talking about Russian Sanctions, then this is a non-issue for Trump, but definitely an issue for Flynn.

That may very well be the case, Indy.  It's also possible that there's more to it and Mueller doesn't want to tip his hand just yet, while keeping the heat just hot enough to make Flynn talk.  As always, just my opinion.

He took the deal. You don't plead out and destroy your legacy unless they have you right where they want you. They have thrown Flynn a softball pitch in exchange for something more. You play or your pay. In Flynn's case, I don't think he wants to be hitting softballs over the prison wall. They've told Flynn, give us something and we'll give you a break. He took the deal. It makes you wonder, who's going to be the next batter? As they say, "the lid is off the box".

Ben Shapiro gives a good analysis and interpretation of the current charges against Flynn...pretty much like I saw it as well.

Michael Flynn's wrongdoing is just the tip of the iceberg

 

The former national security adviser is now cooperating with the Mueller investigation. That takes the trail of Russian collusion to the desk of Trump

I said this earlier and I will say it again...if the Trump Campaign reached out to the Russian Ambassador after he was declared the winner, no laws have been broken. However, because Flynn lied to the Mueller Investigation about the timing, he took a plea deal. If there were other Trump Cabinet members who were caught in lies as well, Mueller can charge them as well. 

 

One thing to note, no transcripts or videos were taken of the Mueller Investigative Team while questioning Flynn. Don't you think that is a little odd? Kind of hard for Flynn to refute what the Mueller Investigative Team is saying he lied about.

For those of you filled with insane hatred here's what this is really all about,

Hiding Trump SUCCESS

 

Tax bill clears Senate in big boost for Trump, GOP

 

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans muscled the largest tax overhaul in 30 years through the Senate early Saturday, taking a big step toward giving President Donald Trump his first major legislative triumph after months of false starts and frustration on other fronts.

“Just what the country needs to get growing again,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in an interview after a final burst of negotiation closed in on a nearly $1.5 trillion package that impacts the breadth of American society.

[Indraman]

I feel sorry for those on the Left thinking this was finally the evidence to bring down Trump. Ground Hog Day once again...lol. You should just admit that this "conspiracy theory" that the Trump Administration colluded with the Russians is nothing more, nothing less than that, a "conspiracy theory."

i agree with Huckabee on this one. It is time to get rid of mueller and appoint a new counsel and look into the real problem here, and that is Hillarious and her email scandal and the uranium deal the clintons had with Russia.

So Flynn pleads guilty of lying to the FBI.......so going forward as a witness in this case is he credible ?  JMO....but I doubt Mueller could have come up with a worse charge to have him plead guilty to.....

[Shabibilicious]

Trump's going to tweet himself right out of a job and probably behind bars.....no smart phones in the pokey.    "I doth think he protest too much".

[coorslite21]

And of course the FBI of late, has been caught in many of their own lies...!
