I wonder if both parties likely knew that and proceeded anyway...

Which lends itself to the belief that Flynn didn't think he was doing anything wrong.

As I see it, the big problem was in how he discussed/lied to Pence.

Cannot be tolerated.

Wow your thread title is completely misleading! It should be whacked.

This was nothing more than pure speculation by breitbart. In other words alternative facts by fake news.

Yet you try to shill it as though it's true. This is pathetic

I have no problem with the Government monitoring communications with officials of an enemy.

On second review this is Breitbart LOL .
They have absolutely no agenda whatsoever.

So let's have a conversation about #fakenews.

quote:

Four possibilities emerge


That is a quote from the article. The Breitbart article, which is already suspect for reasons I can lay out if you want, does not provide any evidence for any of the four. So at this time we have four theories with roughly equal plausibility.

Two of them certainly do not imply any wrongdoing on the part of the Obama administration. The third represents a typical counter-intel strategy. The fourth one is potentially bad for the Obama administration.

Then you come to this board and only post the fourth theory. You don't mention that the other theories exist, that those other theories are equally plausible, and that they imply no wrongdoing.

Now someone who doesn't click through and read the whole Breitbart article will assume the fourth theory is proven or at least more substantial than the others.

That is the very definition of #fakenews.

I'm sure we collect all calls to the Russian ambassador. Does not mean Flynn was targeted for surveillance.

I don't know about all that but there is zero doubt Obama and the democrats with their crooked queen...would love to dismantle Trump.

Oprah is pitching in...

Oprah gives tape with Puzder abuse allegations to Senate - POLITICO
LINK

Why is it the MSM never gave two craps about all of the Obama admin resignations and high turnover rate? It is normal for any President to have growing pains and change in cabinet and admin...

It is a completely different manner; than the the butthurt dems and media to try to make it appear as if it was/is THE RUSSIANS.

Go read this. LINK The final days of the Obama admin. They ate chicken fingers and waffle fries and JOKED about blaming the Russians for HRC's loss.

Here is the next talking point.

Trump ordered Flynn to call Russia

Lookie lookie

Next.... it will be that Trump is a KGB agent and the "I" word will be used.

WaPo reported that they were looking for a line of communication between the Trump transition team and the Russians.

The two most troubling facts from this whole mess are.

1- Flynn lied to the VP and the Pres.

2-There is a leak or number of leaks in our intelligence services to the media. This posses a far bigger risk to natioinal security than what Flynn actually did by talking to the Russian Ambassador.

You have to ask what separates the current leakers from Snowden? He basically did similar things.

Had this thread been critical of the Dear Leader it would have been anchored with a quickness.
