Pence. I have never trusted anyone, particularly a politician, that wears his Christianity on their sleeve. I have yet to find a career politician, including ones like Pence that in the end didn’t end up being exposed as hypocrits. I hope Trump finds an new running mate...he’s a well hidden snake in the grass.
Nuts. He got the money. He’s a paid whore.
He did not get money. You are ill informed.
He was a serving Army General Officer.
Army General Officers go where they are ordered to go and do what they are ordered to do!
He was set up - he knows where the skeletons in the Ophonybama administration are, and, at some point, so will we!
Ophonybama’s people are gonna go to prison! Maybe even Ophonybama!
August 9: Michael Flynn signs a contract with a Dutch firm, Inovo BV, which is owned by a Turkish man with close ties to Ankara. Flynn was promised $600K in exchange for three months of work for the Turkish government.
Nov. 8: Flynn publishes a pro-Turkey op-ed on the Hill's website.
Nov. 11: Daily Caller reporter Chuck Ross reports that Flynn's firm had been hired by a Dutch company with ties to Turkey, pointing to Flynn's op-ed at The Hill as a potential example of such work. That Ross story launched the first investigation into Flynn.
Nov. 30: He is first contacted by the Department of Justice's National Security Division for more information. Flynn's contract with Inovo BV ends, and his firm received $530,000 as they had not completed a video they were asked for.
Dec. 1: Flynn terminates his lobbying contract with the Senate, claiming he had received less than $5,000 from Inovo BV.
Jan. 4: Flynn and his lawyers tell the Trump transition team about the DOJ's investigation into his work with Turkey.
January, days before inauguration: Flynn denies Susan Rice's request to sign off on a plan for retaking Raqqa from ISIS. The move was in line with Turkey's interests.
Feb. 13: Flynn resigns from his position as National Security Advisor, after it was discovered that he lied to Mike Pence about his conversations with the Russian ambassador.
Feb. 14: Trump reportedly asks FBI Director James Comey to let go of the investigation into Flynn.
March 7: Flynn files paperwork at the DOJ, claiming to be a foreign agent and disclosing that he had been paid $500K to work for Turkey's interests last year.
Scary. I once ran against an important local official, and the next year the tax people tried to say I owed almost $20,000. I fought this and the hearing examiners found unanimously on my side and wrote a rather crisp letter to the local tax authority.
Let’s see...
Flynn is guilty of the crime of capitalism, then.
The horrors. He MUST be evil incarnate.
Oh, and let’s please disregard the Armenian genocide...
Feb 13. You state “lied”. Pretty strong word there. Got a reference that ISN’T from the media? Like maybe Flynn or Pence publicly stating he lied?
Feb 14. Flynn is a whgore because OrangeMan likes him. MMMMMmkay.
March 7, like EVERYONE ELSE in Washington DC, Flynn is allowed to file paperwork to come to compliance. What, you NEVER requested an AUTOMATIC 6 month deferral for your Fed Taxes?
Why don’t you just say you don’t like Flynn instead of twisting his recent record into some sort of “List of Criminal Acts” that satisfies your bias confirmation?
“”These people are so despicable that it is unpleasant to even think about them.””
That’s why I said that it makes me want to cry reading it. You can feel what it would be like personally to go through what all those defendants went through. We try to disguise how rotten the system is here and obviously do a pretty good job of it while the old USSR didn’t mess around and did it in the open!
I never said anything wrong about Trump with Flynn. Get a grip, it was Flynn who wasn't honest. It was Flynn taking payments that I questioned his honesty and national security pov because of such financial arrangements. You can read the Mueller report about his dishonesty. You run around throwing orange man bad statements that had nothing to do with anything I brought up.
The NY times “reportedly” says!!!
Bwhahahahahahaha
Still finding it difficult to say, “I don’t like General Mike Flynn”? It’s OK to make it personal instead of hiding behind some simplistic rhetorical list of non-crime crimes.
Go ahead...you’ll feel better.
Say it....
You talked me into getting the book at least.
Poor guy. Flynn is/was a paid whore who worked for Turkish interest.
Why hold a grudge against the Armenians?
Go ahead, say it....you know you want to.
Good - I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. No one could oversell it - it’s just impossible to come up with a fictional story that good. A teaser is Sidney Powell showing up in the TX courthouse with several other attorneys ready to go into the courtroom and seeing the judge on the case and the prosecutors emerge from a conference room. The judge was so dense he slipped a couple of times in session by mentioning things he had discussed with the prosecutors all unknown to the defense. To say that wouldn’t give anyone pause about what was up between the judge and prosecutors isn’t playing with a full deck. The judge wasn’t for sure.
I don’t want to talk too much and dissuade you from getting the book but some of the things are so asinine they just won’t leave my mind. The US Supreme Court dismissed 3 of 5 convictions in one of the cases and the person was sentenced for those 5 convictions. The defense petitioned to have the sentence reduced for the charges/convictions that were dismissed and the judge had a difficult time understanding he should subtract 3 from 5 and re-sentence the individual on only 2 of the charges. Never did do it. The prosecutors convinced him otherwise.
Needless to say Sidney Powell’s co-counsel had to interrupt her and speak to let her cool off after some of these exchanges.
I’ve had a long habit of boring my family to tears about books that I read and now I have FR to listen - I hope!!
I think there is evidence that Flynn was framed and blackmailed, but this GP article does not even try to present any reasons behind its opinions.
