MisRemembering in a perjury trap is not lying. You were taught that today when Flynn was exonerated.Oh you poor soul... no you don’t lie to cops about anything. You never know where details lead in the course of an investigation... facts need to be uncovered. You don’t set a precedent that if you don’t think a question is related to a crime that’s under investigation it’s ok to lie. As soon as Flynn started lying he deserved to get pressed. I would have been irresponsible to not go that route. If Flynn didn’t want to disclose something or If he didn’t remember he could have responded I’m several other ways. But lying was not ok. Stop making excuses for himThere was nothing wrong with Flynn’s phone call with Russia except for he lied about it and got fired because of it. Just because it happened after the election doesn’t make Flynn’s relationship with Russia and communications, known and unknown, not a relevant line of questioning. Are you playing stupid or do you really not get it?There was legitimate reason to question Flynn... they were investigating Russian interference in an election. Flynn was part of the trump campaign. Flynn had been in communication with the Russians. It doesn’t get any more material than thatHe wasn’t arrested for the phone call. He was questioned about it and arrested for lying about it. How do you still not understand this. We’ve been over it a dozen times now. Seriously... you’re just trolling at this point, am I right?No, when shown evidence of criminal conduct people should get arrested... when trying to cover for a liar the charges get dropped... isn’t that what y’all said about Comey and Clinton?Wow, Barr just dropped the case. Talk about the dirty dirty swamp. How embarrassing for our government
Yeah, when shown overwhelming evidence of FBI criminal conduct the DOJ only has one option, and that is to drop all charges.
That's what the RULE OF LAW, demands.
when shown evidence of criminal conduct people should get arrested...
Exactly. If there was any evidence of criminal conduct in the phone call, he should have been arrested.
He wasn’t arrested for the phone call.
Exactly. Because nothing in the call was a crime.
He was questioned about it and arrested for lying about it.
Yes. He was arrested for, supposedly, non-material lies in a phony investigation.
How do you still not understand this.
I understand it perfectly.
If the FBI questions you about a non-criminal phone call, they can charge you if you lie.
Even if the lies are not material and there isn't a legitimate legal reason to even question you.
There was legitimate reason to question Flynn...
What reason?
they were investigating Russian interference in an election.
Cool. The phone call was after the election.
Flynn was part of the trump campaign.
Then their questions should have been about stuff before the election.
Flynn had been in communication with the Russians.
Then question him about pre-election contacts. No crime in the post-election call.
It doesn’t get any more material than that
Durr.
There was nothing wrong with Flynn’s phone call with Russia except for he lied about it
Exactly. A lie that was not material.
Just because it happened after the election doesn’t make Flynn’s relationship with Russia and communications, known and unknown, not a relevant line of questioning.
Any lie about the known communication, the one that didn't involve the election or any wrongdoing, isn't material. And there was no wrongdoing uncovered about any other calls.
