People keeps saying (as if it has been proven a fact) that Flynn discussed removing the sanctions with Kislyev prior to Trumps' election. This "story" is based on a WaPo article on 02/09/17 alleging former Obama officials knew from telephone recordings that Flynn did discuss this.
National security adviser Michael Flynn privately discussed U.S. sanctions against Russia with that country’s ambassador to the United States during the month before President Trump took office, contrary to public assertions by Trump officials, current and former U.S. officials said.

Yet to my knowledge this has never been proven. Nothing after that story was published has come to light showing this was actually discussed. I have been searching and have found no subsequent reports from the investigation confirming this allegation.
Yet people accept it as a given fact.
IMO,
people should wait until an investigation proves something a fact before ascribing it as such.
Which seems to be the general problem.
Fact: There was some Russian activity which colored the election.
The facts also show that the DNC documents "leaked" showed collusion to defeat Bernie's campaign; collusion with CNN to give Hilly debate questions in advance; and several other acts of malfeasance.
The facts also show that Obama's Attorney-General met with Bill Clinton, and shortly thereafter attempted to "modify" the FBI investigation (according to Mr. Comey's testimony).
The facts also show that President Obama's Administration knew of the alleged interference long before "sanctions" were imposed in December 2016...
AFTER the election results.
The facts are that people were apprised of possible Russian interference prior to voting in November, and this may have affected Democrats but did not affect those of us who voted for Trump.
Hell, I was pointing out back then it did not matter where the info came from, as long as it was proven true. (Something most of the "leaks" after Trump's election have failed to do).
The facts are there has been no real evidence of any actual collusion between Trump or member's of his campaign with this Russian interference. NOPE! :no:
Just a lot of smoke, sound and fury signifying nothing of substance.
Something the #ResistTrump crowd refuse to keep in mind. :coffeepap:
