Y'all know that the charges against Flynn are based on a lie he told to the FBI right? The lie Flynn told to the FBI was unnecessary. He was essentially asked if he had contact/talks with the Russians during the campaign or during the Trump administration's transition period.

For some inexplicable reason Flynn answered no, which is strange because so far none of the contacts that the Trump team made during the campaign or during the transition period from the Obama administration to the Trump administration has been determined to be unusual or illegal. I'm still curious as to why Flynn freaked out over this particular FBI question regarding contact/talks with Russia but nonetheless he lied and it would be interesting to hear his reason for lying about something that is neither unusual or illegal.

So the bad news is Trump is still your POTUS and the good news is Trump will continue to be your POTUS for another 3 years minimum. As you were.

So he committed a crime with absolutely no motive? Just felt like lying. Okay.

You want some comedy gold, go to youtube and watch Joy Behar on the View take a breaking news document from a show staffer and read it to the audience. These fools were ready to break out the Champagne and toast each other because they believe the dictatorship of Trump is over.

You ain't seen nothing yet Dawg, when that FBI informant that had the NDA lifted starts divulging all the goodies on the U1 deal it's gonna get good, real good. It's all going back to the Clinton Crime Foundation....., book it!

My point is that people don't lie to the FBI for shits and gigs. It's because they are trying to cover something up.

No double post. Just pointing it out because it’s so obvious.

And that's fine, I too want to hear Flynn's explanation for lying to a question that was unnecessary.

You do realize people get nailed like this every day right? Remember Scooter Libby? The source who outed Valery Plaim was known by the FBI almost from the beginning, and yet he made false statements to them. He ended up getting nailed with the same charge as Flynn, and he wasn’t even the source. People lie about the most mundane shite, even if they aren't being questioned by the FBI.

I think he lied because everyone was looking for the Russian smoking gun in regards to collusion and so why mention normal interactions and stir up more speculation. Short sighted, and a technicality bit him in the arse.

So the good news is Trump is still POTUS which means Libs continue to get to have the fun of being the attackers and Trump supporters are still stuck having to try to play defense, still stuck having to answer for the government, and still stuck watching their guy being mercilessly attacked just as they did to Obama for 8 years.

In politics, being on defense is never as much fun as being on offense. This is a great time to be a liberal reporter in Washington D.C. Like once in a lifetime good. Particularly as long as the CIC continues to reflexively tweet his every thought and in doing so gift-wrap the LW media material.
