I am fed up with this lie from you

I HAVE NEVER SAID THAT about Rick Scott.

I never followed his election

I can’t figure out why you post this BS

I think you really believe it but you have me mixed up with someone else.

You have NOT ONCE been able to prove your allegation..because it isn’t true

Very true. Flynn probably did lie, the question is was it deliberate or just facts of omission?

This smacks of the same tactics the FBI used to get Martha Stewart, Scooter Libby, and many others. They can't prove the charges they wanted so they get you for some type of lying to the FBI, regardless of it was an intentional lie or one of mistake or forgetfulness. In Libby's case it was something as innocuous as some telephone calls he could not remember on a certain date. Pretty lame stuff. So the other question is this, are they going to offer him any deal in exchange for Perjured testimony against Trump & Company?

Wow you’re right thanks. “http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/01/michael-flynn-charged-in-russia-investigation-guilty-plea-expected.html”;

All this is, is just Flynn revealing the details of the contact he had with the Russians, the contact he hid from Pence and what got him fired as NSA. Here’s the meat of the news, the real take home message:

“As for the past discussions between Flynn and transition officials, it’s unclear which senior officials the plea deal referred to. But a former senior intelligence officer with knowledge of Trump transition activities told Fox News that then-President-Elect Trump directed Flynn during that period to contact the Russians — while also directing him and his team to contact 12 other countries.”

...

“Flynn was accused of “willfully and knowingly” making the false statements to the FBI while serving in the Trump administration.

“According to the charging document, those false statements were that: 

‘“On or about Dec 29, 2016, FLYNN did not ask the Government of Russia’s Ambassador to the United States ... to refrain from escalating the situation in response to sanctions that the United States had imposed against Russia that same day; and FLYNN did not recall the Russian Ambassador subsequently telling him that Russia had chosen to moderate its response to those sanctions as a result of his request.
‘On or about December 22, 2016, FLYNN did not ask the Russian Ambassador to delay the vote on or defeat a pending United Nations Security Council resolution; and  that the Russian Ambassador subsequently never described to FLYNN Russia’s response to his request.’

“The latter statement appears to refer to the body’s vote a day later to condemn Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

“In a striking rupture with past practice, the Obama administration refrained from vetoing the condemnation, opting instead to abstain. The rest of the 15-nation council, including Russia, voted unanimously against Israel. At the time, Israel was lobbying furiously against the resolution and President-elect Trump’s team spoke up on behalf of the Jewish state. ”

This is a huge nothing burger! Haha. Amazing how it’s being spun by ABC and others!

Problem here is, the Clinton attack dogs that Meuller has hired, unethical people like Weissman, will do anything. He has been convicted in the past of threatening witnesses, he created a false charge against Anderson Consulting that put that company and 85,000 people out of work. The decision was eventually reversed by the Supreme Court 9-0

They could easily create a false story, that Trump will have to take a lot of time and resources to defend.

These people are dedicated to getting Trump and doing anything to do it, whether illegal or not.

Not lying.

I really don’t.

For example, IF Trump committed a crime I cannot later say..I always knew it..or always believed it..

Flynn talking to Pence was a big flub!

He thought Pence was part of the team, but he wasn’t. That is why he had to be removed, to save the investigation (hopefully).

When he was a candidate

ABC is reporting that Flynn will testify that Candidate Trump instructed him to contact Russia about Syria.

Perjured testimony against this President can have what I call “horrific consequences” against the deep state. Just look at the backlash that we have been seeing in other things. I expect the retaliation for what we are currently seeing to be furious and vicious.

It’s because Meuller has people like Weissman on staff, specifically to do whatever he needs to do, even if iot’s unethical, which has been a trademark of this bastrad Weissman’s career. here’s an overview of his shady past legal tactics http://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/356253-judging-by-muellers-staffing-choices-he-may-not-be-very-interested-in

I predict Trump comes out smelling like a rose after all this, and cruises to re-election.

Is that really against the law? Making some sort of inquiry?

The lying “mainstream” media is the single greatest threat to the Republic that we have.
