On Jan 6th, Comey met with the President. At some point before the meeting, Comey said he had a plan.

During the meeting, Flynn's name came up but we don't know who brought it ip. What we do know is that according to Comey's memo of the meeting, he had a "gotcha" saying the President ORDERED HIM to drop the Flynn matter.

So I'm guessing that was the plan...to entrap the President.

Dude, take the L. The ratio here is disturbing.

You know, if Drudge was honest, this would be a banner headline with a flashing light, and would start some momentum on it.

With NO coverage by the MSM this will be buried.

And my guess is that Flynn swamp creature lawyers were in on it, too.

Of course they were. They were involved in Flynn's foreign agent filing. They were willing to sacrifice their own client to avoid having their malpractice disclosed.

I have absolutely broken with Pence. Today's leftist talking point is that regardless of the prosecution Flynn lied to Pence. The counter is that Pence is stating if he knew now the truth of what the FBI was telling him then, he would not have concluded that Flynn lied.

THAT TEARS IT. Pence believed the FBI after Russiagate and the campaign, and no Russiagate did not start on inauguration day.

Another RINO deepstate hack. What about faithful defense of those on your own side. And Pence, be a man and apoligize publicly to Flynn. I won't forgive you for your fecklessness, but honor and manliness require no less.

There is no repairing the damage this move made to this nation and your administration.

Looks to me that the notes prove a conspiracy to violate the civil rights of General Flynn, if not Trump.

“And my guess is that Flynn swamp creature lawyers were in on it, too.”

Umm, that was established by the DOJ and documents months ago. No guessing needed.

That said, there is a swarm of lawsuits and depositions on the way. Flynn and his attorney ought to be able to retire when they are done with the myriad participants involved in this setup and attempted coup.

There should be people dangling from lamp-posts when the legal and justice system is done with these people.

Pleading guilty when you know you’re not guilty seems like a very bad idea

unfortunately, when you’re out of money, you're out of options.

Even when you’re not guilty.

I’m not Pence’s biggest fan but I think he’s been solid on this one. For all the malfeasance related to the prosecution of Flynn, he SHOULD be taken to task for two legal issues nobody seems to be talking about:

1. Discussing classified matters with a foreign government on his personal cell phone while vacationing in a Third World dump.

2. Conspiring with a foreign government (Russia) to undermine the U.S. on a United Nations Security Council vote.

Such display of cleared headed rationale is mind boggling. Too bad the stupid General couldn’t see that./s

The Logan Act of 1799 forbids U.S. citizens from intervening in disputes with foreign nations without authorization.

Doesn’t seem to have been invoked during WWI or the Spanish
Civil war.

See post nineteen. Why Flynn used Covington and Burling law firm — notoriously Democrat — is beyond me.

“ THAT TEARS IT. Pence believed the FBI after Russiagate and the campaign, and no Russiagate did not start on inauguration day.”

This is something that has amazed me about Trump as well. Many, many of his terrible choices in staff and in cabinet positions flow from this as well. Neither he nor Pence understood the level of deceit, unquenchable hatred, perversity, lawlessness and demonic frenzy of his “political” enemies (which was almost literally everyone in the bureaucracy and in elected position in Washington). He seemed to think it was all just politics and he seemed to think they were just regular political actors who would give him an honest take. How could he possibly think that? Everyone on this site knew differently from the very start. We knew what kind of Satanic tyrants they were...how on Earth could they not see this?

This went on at some level right into the Chinese virus scam. He took the advice of Fauci and that scarf woman...right out of the bureaucracy! After everything, they still turned to them to set the action in motion! What does it take to get someone to realize that entire federal government is a corrupt, totalitarian enemy of the people? Have the Leftist riots looking to eliminate the last scattered elements of a true American government of the people clued them in?

This just blows me away. How could they not know the Leftist evil that inhabits this government at all levels...this long into it?

I hear ya, but I gave up on saying that around here. This website is filled with people falling all over themselves to make excuses for Flynn. But nobody seems willing or able to answer two key questions:

1. If Flynn pleaded guilty to protect his son, then isn’t he now exposing his son to prosecution by reneging on his plea deal?

2. If he pleaded guilty for financial reasons, then why has he spent two and a half years engaged in all these lengthy (and costly) legal proceedings?

Yes he definitely should apologize and apologise now

I haven’t seen a complete story, but I hope someday, we will. Imagine if Flynn had simply told Mueller and his corrupt team to F.O.?

Mueller first used Flynn's limited consulting work on behalf of Turkey to pressure him - claiming Flynn didn’t register as as working for a foreign government, even though it wasn’t clear Flynn even needed to - and many DC swamp rats didn’t either. After caving once, they then slowly turned the screws on Flynn, upping the ante and seriousness a little bit each time. His law firm was also pathetic and did little to help Flynn as he got sucked down.
