IMO, you are on the wrong side of this, lodi90. Flynn could not fight this, very few people can. All the unlimited resources of the Government brought to bear on a private citizen with limited resources.
This process has bankrupted Flynn. He had no recourse. He had to cut a deal.
Seriously. Every single person in this country who cares about the danger of government tyranny and the rejection of selective prosecution for political purposes should be on the side of Michael Flynn.
Flynn is a Democrat. Maybe he is hoping to be rehabilitated post Trump? He certainly doesn’t deserve a pardon now that he is playing for Team Mueller Coup.
Interestingly, for a Democrat, this was the speech (according to Wikipedia, which is not an impartial source) he gave that sounds fine to me:
"...As one of the keynote speakers during the first night of the 2016 Republican National Convention, Flynn gave what the Los Angeles Times described as a "fiery" speech, in which he stated: "We are tired of Obama's empty speeches and his misguided rhetoric. This, this has caused the world to have no respect for America's word, nor does it fear our might"; he accused Obama of choosing to conceal the actions of Osama bin Laden and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. Flynn went on to criticize political correctness and joined the crowd in a chant of "U-S-A! U-S-A!". During the chants, he told those in the audience, "Get fired up! This is about our country."
During the speech, Flynn launched a blistering attack on Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. He led the crowd in chants of "Lock her up!"; during one of those chants, he encouraged the crowd to keep it up, saying, "Damn right! Exactly right! There is nothing wrong with that!" He called for Clinton to withdraw from the race, saying that "if I did a tenth of what she did, I'd be in jail today." He repeated in subsequent interviews that she should be "locked up". While campaigning for Trump, Flynn also referred to Clinton as the "enemy camp". Six days after the speech, Flynn stirred up a controversy by retweeting anti-Semitic remarks, which he later apologized for and claimed were unintentional. During the election campaign, Flynn used Twitter to post links to negative stories about Clinton, like the Pizzagate conspiracy theory..."
If he was a Democrat, he was either speaking to the crowd for what they wanted, or was truly converted. But I will say this: Flynn was virulently and vocally opposed to the Iran Nuclear Deal. On this, he not only knew more about what we are calling "Uranium One", but was an outspoken critic within the administration of what Obama clearly thought was one of his crown jewels, the Iran Deal. So he didn't make himself any friends there.
This whole thing stinks to me, but of the things Flynn is even accused of being associated with, never mind doing, those are completely the most innocuous things in the entire collage of circumstances and events.
As I inferred, he comes across as a arrogant dipstick who treats subordinates roughly, but that doesn't justify bringing the weight of the government down on him using entrapment for a minor process crime which by all accounts the FBI itself didn't think was a crime.
There is far more to this than meets the eye.
