Lol....out of curiosity if everyone knew this before Trump took office why is everyone pretending now that some major event happened? Flynn knows why he lied. Maybe fit was just his way of saying, I don’t answer to you. He should have just straight up said that

But everyone already knows this. Trump and his team is 100% in the clear.

Unless they’re stupid enough to lie to the FBI. And who would do something that dumb?

I don’t even pay attention to the Russia crap anymore.

It’s all absolute nonsense.

I stopped paying any attention to the Russian idiocy long ago. They ONLY way they can actually nail anyone for anything is thru corruption, lies and/or entrapment.

“Lol....out of curiosity if everyone knew this before Trump took office why is everyone pretending now that some major event happened?”

Easy answer. Mueller’s team is filled with Leftists and they were likely sitting on Flynn for months.

Then the Kate Steinle verdict comes up and Trump gets his tax cuts. Good news for Trump was about to DOMINATE the Sunday shows. They decided not to permit that.

Yep. Since they have nothing they are just trying to damage Pres Trump politically.

Footage has resurfaced of Obama State Department spokesman Mark Toner saying Flynn contacting foreign governments during the transition poses no issues.

.... Well .... It broke last week that Trump has been telling his friends and inner circle that the Russia Probe will be concluded by the end of the year.

..... I do find it curious that the media consistently insists that he is a blithering idiot ...... However they collectively seem to forget that he does have his own intelligence personnel as well as access to more inside information than almost anybody on the face of the earth. So why do they snicker when the "Blithering Idiot Talks?" ..... What they should be doing is taking a cue from the old EF Hutton commercials that used to say "When EF Hutton talks, people listen!" Instead of laughing at the person they mock and call a fool perhaps they should begin to listen.

I'm starting to think the FBI doesn't always have the right to question someone endlessly where there is no crime or even a suggestion of a crime. It's like having a warrant with no bounds.

In other words, the response to the FBI should always be....none of your damn business.
