Coyote Just LISTEN to this bragging bastard traitor ENTERTAINING TDSers like you about AMBUSHING Gen Flynn.,. He's just a HERO to them... NEEDS the credit at that point for GETTING a special counsel to investigate NOTHING that the FBI had on Russia Russia Russia...
This interview was shortly after he was fired and going out on "The Resistance Tour" to whip up the dittohead resisters about Russia..
Boils my blood at the level of ABUSE OF POWER that's here... Not the "abuse of power" you IMAGINED existed in the 1st weeks of the Trump Admin...
Watch IT -- and tell me this is funny or APPROPRIATE now that America KNOWS the FBI had NOTHING ON RUSSIA about Flynn and THEY knew this also...
I am no fan of Comey, particularly with what he did to Hilary, but 1 minute 32 second snippet isn’t going to make or break a case. It just feeds emotions.
You think I imagined abuse of power with Trump? I am just a TDS’er eh? That is your fall back when I point serious issues with Trump. Well, I know one thing for sure, I am not so far up Trump’s ass I am imitating a suppository.
In the history of bullshit hypocritical statements, you just skyrocketed to the top and lost my respect all at once.
What
The
Fuck
Comey confesses in 1:32 and you say it doesn't matter.
There is simply zero point in even trying to talk to someone who ignores. FUCKING GOD DAMN CONFESSION so she can keep partisan hate alive.
Like a security blanket, huh?
A 1:32 minute out of context snippet is an entire confession but an analysis from lawfare is fraudulent (I doubt you even bothered to read it).
You guys are looney tunes with no interest in discussion if it doesn’t support your pet conspiracy theory and make Trump’s ass shine.
keeping the partisan hate alive...good job dude, because that is what you are doing here when you can’t even entertain the idea of another point of view. You can drop your pretense of open mindedness, you are just another Trumpbot.
Nice leftist-Democrat talking points. You are quite the propagandist. Do they pay you?
can you challenge any of the legal points made in lawfare?
There WERE no "legal points" of value in that Lawfare screed.. The guy just DISMISSED "the ambush" while Comey was bragging publicly about it.. Just like you did.. He SPECULATED as to what the judge would do... And WORSE -- he misrepresented WHY Flynn CHANGED his COUNSEL..
The TRUTH IS it wasn't about a whim.. His FORMER counsels were ACTIVELY SCREWING HIM.. Withholding IMPORTANT exculpatory evidence from the court that SHOWED he was set-up, THREATENED and ambushed by the FBI.. When the FBI KNOWINGLY was ready to close the "official" Russian investigation into Flynn..
THAT LIE of omission makes the LawFare article lame and useless.. Because it's no BETTER than uninformed or INTENTIONAL Bullshit that gets posted on USMB...
Wow. Simply wow. No legal points of value huh? I don’t think you read it.
What specific evidence was withheld? And how would it have made a difference?
The 302's where the agents said flynn wasn't lying. C'mon Coyote, you're better than this.
Yeah the facts are Flynn wasn't lying until Comey said he was. Comey should be in jail.
They should ALL be imprisoned for life. That's the only thing that has a chance to prevent the next scumbag bureaucrat who thinks they are above the law.
Throw Trump in their while you are at it.
Why would I do that? He's not the subject of this thread. The subject is the FBI lying to the Court, and falsifying documents.
Next time you hurl the "you are a trump cultist" epithet, I suggest you look in the mirror.
I am talking about criminal wrongdoing on the part of the FBI. You are launching non sequitur after non sequitur, and resorting to personal insults when the evidence is clearly against you.
Stop it.
well the thread is about Trump bringing the dark to light - not a Comey vs. Flynn topic; but that said i've been focused on comey / flynn as most of us has and she keeps dropping trump bombs in as if either of us have mentioned it or defended him for something.
Gee. The thread is about Trump but we can't talk about Trump. Oh wait. Let me correct that. You can. I can't.
The thread is about Flynn, and how the Trump administration is exposing the dark side of the characters who were out to get Flynn in hopes to hurt Trump. There fixed it for you.
Oh...I didn't realize we were in the Conspiracy Theory forum. I'll adjust my responses accordingly.
Russia Russia Russia was a BRUTAL 18 month conspiracy theory.. Fueled by "leaks" of UNNAMED high sources and fake news and scandals that never were.. The Flynn case is clear prosecutorial abuse and maybe eventually miscarraige of justice.. HOW REAL IS IT??
The DAY BEFORE Comey, McCabe, Strzok et al AMBUSHED Flynn at the WH and took advantage of the chaos in the FIRST DAYS of a new Admin -- we got this in the WashPo...
By Ellen Nakashima and
Greg MillerJanuary 23, 2017
The FBI in late December reviewed intercepts of communications between the Russian ambassador to the United States and retired Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn — national security adviser to then-President-elect Trump — but has not found any evidence of wrongdoing or illicit ties to the Russian government, U.S. officials said
Although Flynn’s contacts with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak were listened to, Flynn himself is not the active target of an investigation, U.S. officials said. The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that U.S. counterintelligence agents had investigated the communications between Flynn and Kislyak.
Although Flynn has written critically about Russia, he also was paid to deliver a speech at a 2015 Moscow gala for RT, the Kremlin-sponsored international television station, at which he was seated next to Putin.
The FBI’s counterintelligence agents listen to calls all the time that do not pertain to any open investigation, current and former law enforcement officials said. Often, said one former official, “they’re just monitoring the other [foreign official] side of the call.”
Both Flynn, a former head of the Pentagon’s intelligence agency, and Kislyak, a seasoned diplomat, are probably aware that Kislyak’s phone calls and texts are being monitored, current and former officials said. That would make it highly unlikely, the individuals said, that the men would allow their calls to be conduits of illegal coordination.
*****************************
Is it a bit strange that "un-named" sources tell the WashPo the day before the ambush that there is NO ACTIVE investigation on Flynn? That he's "been cleared" by a THOROUGH FBI investigation?? That Flynn has NOTHING to worry about??
I do...
"The DAY BEFORE Comey, McCabe, Strzok et al AMBUSHED Flynn at the WH and took advantage of the chaos in the FIRST DAYS of a new Admin "
LOLOL
By "ambushed," you mean asking him if he wouldn't mind answering a few questions?
Or do you mean by forcing him to lie to them when he agreed to answer their questions?
He did not lie.. The original 302 notes show that. And in fact, he joked with McCabe when the meeting was set up -- "asking him if he needed a lawyer"....
The rest is recorded in documents submitted to the court...
Mr. McCabe’s account states: “I explained that I thought the quickest way to get this done was to have a conversation between [General Flynn] and the agents only. I further stated
that if LTG Flynn wished to include anyone else in the meeting, like the White House Counsel for instance, that I would need to involve the Department of Justice. [General Flynn] stated that this would not be necessary and agreed to meet with the agents without any additional participants.”
Less than two hours later, at 2:15 p.m., FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok and a second FBI agent arrived at the White House to interview General Flynn. By the agents’
account, General Flynn was “relaxed and jocular” and offered to give the agents “a little tour” of the area around his West Wing office. The agents did not provide General Flynn with a warning of the penalties for making a false statement under 18 U.S.C. § 1001 before, during, or after the interview. Prior to the FBI’s interview of General Flynn, Mr. McCabe and other FBI officials “decided the agents would not warn Flynn that it was a crime to lie during an FBI interview because they wanted Flynn to be relaxed, and they were concerned that giving the warnings might adversely affect the rapport,” one of the agents reported. Before the interview, FBI officials had also decided that, if “Flynn said he did not remember something they knew he said, they would use the exact words Flynn used, . . . to try to refresh his recollection. If Flynn still would not confirm what he said, . . . they would not confront him or talk him through it.” One of the agents reported that General Flynn was “unguarded” during the interview and “clearly saw the FBI agents as allies.”
Judge rejects Michael Flynn's claims of FBI misconduct
Rejecting assertions that former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was wrongly pressured by the FBI into pleading guilty to charges of making false statements to investigators, a federal judge on Monday set Flynn's sentencing next month, ruling that Flynn was not entrapped by the feds.www.journal-news.com
Supporters of Flynn have long pointed to statements in the interview summary made afterwards by agents - known as a 302 form - in which it was said Flynn did not seem to be lying.
But the Judge said a review of the evidence shows Flynn did lie - repeatedly.
"The Court therefore finds that the notes, draft FD-302s, and final FD-302 provide ample support that Mr. Flynn made false statements to the FBI about his communications with the Russian Ambassador," Sullivan ruled.
The Judge also rebuked Flynn's lawyers.
You just quoted an article from last December... Why are we talking about this NOW?? Have you learned NOTHING from the last 10 pages you were in?
The evidence that his NEW counsel found show the INTENT to entrap him.. And statements from the OTHER FBI agent that was in the room besides Strzok...
