Unlike wikileaks that published the actual documents, the WaPo did not.


Would you like to see the underlying material?

Good job misrepresenting the article with your title and not bolding "asked"


You do know that the AG is an appointee by Trump right?

We know Flynn felt the need to lie about it. Reason to investigate imo

Of course. Although wanting to see it and thinking we should may be different.

I care about both. Find out wtf Flynn was doing and why...because right now we have ZERO idea what was said on the phone. Then imprison the people who leaked it, regardless of what the details are.
There's a 90% chance this is what the conversation went like.

Russian Guy: Hey so Flynn, can we do anything about these sanctions?

Flynn: Yeah man we're obviously gonna look at things like that after the inauguration.






Butthurt Obama appointees and MSM: Flynn talked about Sanctions!!!!!!!!!


Pence to Flynn: You talk about sanction?

Flynn to Pence: No dude.



Butthurt Obama appointees and MSM: Flynn is a liar!!!!!!!!

Who is providing or leaking info to Chaffetz for him (and you) to be so confident in your assumptions?


What are you even talking about? Everyone on every side of this agrees the leaks could only have come from within the U.S. intelligence community.

It looks bad when you care more about the source of the leaks than the content of the leaks, amirite?



No. These leaks were classified and that is a YUUGE difference than the previous shite.

I miss the Gowdy/Chaffetz lines of questioning during the Comey hearings. Good times. Good times.

So, we are all ok with candidates in communication with powerful foriegn entities without telling voters?

No law against it, so let's go for it?

You're probably right, in large part. Of course, Flynn probably shouldn't have taken that action, and he certainly shouldn't have lied to the administration about it.

I think there is a fair chance a widespread investigation as to Flynn would uncover more nefarious dealings. I doubt the transcript of his December call(s) in question are going to be excessively damning. I think they'll show coordination as to how Russia should respond to the then-current Administration, which is fricked up. But I don't think it ultimately matters that much.

On some level they all have to know this, but they're so desperate to see Trump fail they'll latch onto anything no matter how outlandish.

Has it been reported who placed the call to whom? Just curious.
