Flynn offers to testify on Russia in exchange for immunity | TheHill

The Hill said:
President Trump's former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, has reportedly told the FBI that he is willing to testify about the Trump campaign's potential ties to Russia in exchange for immunity from prosecution, The Wall Street Journal reported.

Flynn resigned in February after it was reported that he misled senior White House officials about his interactions with Russia and had discussed sanctions with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak ahead of Trump's inauguration.

"When you are given immunity, that means you have probably committed a crime."
-Mike Flynn in September 2016

Personally I can't wait until those who once praised and defended this man incessantly, who carried his water with the utmost zeal suddenly turn on him as a traitor and a liar and insist that he's the scum of the earth; Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia, etc...

Do you know what his testimony will be?

No, but odds are pretty good that if he's asking for immunity in relation to testimony on Russia it won't be at all favourable to his (former) supporters.

Wishful thinking on your part. Maybe he just wants the blowtorch of this hyper-partisan witch hunt he's caught in to be turned off.

An interesting little twist in the game is that Flynn's gone and hired himself a very anti-Trump attorney. Quite telling.

I would consider that to be far more in line with the notion of 'wishful thinking', particularly in light of his own stated views on immunity per the OP, but to each their own I suppose.

Wishful thinking on your part. There is no 'hyper-partisan witch hunt' to apply any such blowtorch.

Sure there is. Otherwise, whats the point?

IMO, everyone involved on both sides should seek immunity. This will get ugly.

No, there's not. Both republicans and democrats are interested in pursuing this and getting to the bottom of what may or may not have happened. To deny that is to deny reality. There is no such 'witch hunt'.

There is no 'both sides' on this. There is only the Trump administration and it's associates.

You really don't seem to have been paying attention to this.

The FBI and CIA are hyper-partisan organizations?

can I see the scale you're using? Because if they are hyper-P, what is Fox news, and right wing media and liberal activism? The same rating...really?
 
I don't mean you any dis respect but did not Flynn and Trump say that is you want immunity means you committed a crime. like why are they different from anyone else .. or maybe they are immune from this and everyone else is not

The Left has politicized everything. So Yes.
