Michael Flynn told special counsel about possible attempts to obstruct Russia probe


In a filing attached to his sentencing memorandum, federal prosecutors said Flynn “informed the government of multiple instances, both before and after his guilty plea, where either he or his attorneys received communications from persons connected to the Administration or Congress that could have affected both his willingness to cooperate and the completeness of that cooperation.”

Flynn, a former national security advisor, not only told investigators about these communications but also provided the special counsel’s office with a voicemail of one instance. Prosecutors said in their filing that they were not aware of some of these attempts until Flynn informed them.

Mueller’s office had recommended a light sentence for Flynn, who pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to federal investigators about conversations he had with the Russian ambassador.

Nothing to see here. Nope

Oh yeah, how did Pompeo describe Wiki Leaks?

"The defendant relayed to the government statements made in 2016 by senior campaign officials about WikiLeaks to which only a select few people were privy. For example, the defendant recalled conversations with senior campaign officials after the release of the Podesta emails, during which the prospect of reaching out to WikiLeaks was discussed," according to the newly unredacted documents.

And...? As the article indicates, Flynn tells a tale that senior Trump campaign officials discussed reaching out to Wikileaks AFTER the first Wikileaks release.
1. So what? If anything this is more confirmation that there was no conspiracy between Trump & Co. and Russia--- it should be obvious that if there was a conspiracy there would be no need to reach out. The campaign already would have known what was going on and been in contact all along.
2. We already knew this from the Stone indictment-- Mueller said Stone was the guy the campaign reached out to see if he could reach out to Wikileaks.

As far as his meetings in December 2016, we knew this already.

Indeed.

CNN. :lol:
Why do I get the feeling they are trying to imply Trump was that person who reached out to Flynn while he was in talks with Mueller?

Gee I don't know what would individual one have to gain by ordering Flynn to lie.

That really doesn't sound like something individual one would do, does it???

More obstruction evidence.

I wonder if he’s next up to testify before Congress.


This is the worst total exoneration I have ever seen...

Who were the members in the Admin or Congress that were possibly interfering in an investigation?

Thing is Trump supporters will continue to deny,deflect, trivialize Trumps senior campaign members discussing contact with a foreign entity that was hostile to the US (WL), under rumored investigation by the US for criminal activities.

More than 120 documented contacts with Russians

And guess what, pls refer to what I mentioned regarding Trump supporters

No concerns about the facts, that if were done by a Dem, their response would be wholesale conniption fits.

So pls tell me, an outsider looking in WTF is going on?

Answer honestly! We’re you this pissed off when Obama leaned over to that Russian and whispered “I’ll have more flexibility after the election.”?

OK I covered that.
You saying this activity/contacts from a Presidential Campaign is OK with you?

Wanna bet Flynn lied to Pence about that phone call to the Russian ambassador because individual one told him to keep it secret?

Better tell Mueller.

You don’t understand this whole thing at all, do you?

Flynn DID tell Mueller. This is probably in the redacted material.

Protip: you might get something out of current events if you make more than a halfhearted effort to comprehend them. Unless, of course, you’re incapable of comprehending simple stuff, which usually means you’re an easy sucker to convince.

Nope, Flynn will be testifying to Congress.
Could be like another, Cohen, 2 days public, 1 day closed.
Placing the closed day in the middle played well as the Dems could followup from closed testimony

Could be but I sorta doubt it
He got elected, a real big surprise
Fired Christie who was in charge of the transition. Had a planned out transition with firm benchmarks

Then we have Jared/Ivanka & others in a really ffd up transition

What could go wrong?????
I could compare the transition, and later to the Keystone Cops, but then it would need to be funny, but it ain't funny
 
release the "exoneration" report to congress.

lol.

it will leak eventually anyway, i'd guess. too much demand for it for Tweetycult to successfully cover it up.
 
Wait, did you say Russia?

:beatdeadhorse
 
Russia Russia Russia, collusion collusion collusion. Their needles are stuck

This is what the Right will never understand about Trumps detractors. Just because they choose to lower their leadership standards to accommodate Trump, does not mean the rest of America will follow.
