Trump Pardons Michael Flynn, Who Pleaded Guilty To Lying About Russia Contact

A direct quote from the Mueller report:

"Although the investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts, the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities."

Read that however many times it takes, guys. It was FAKE.
 
I'm beginning to think you're not real, by which I mean that you're someone having fun pretending to be the most ridiculous trumper possible; doing a perfect caricature of the total nutcase right winger.

You know, that's funny. I was once a Bernie Bro. But then "saw the light". :giggle:
 
You have no idea of the facts. He committed no crime, the FBI has pretty much admitted to entrapment and using a bogus accusation of a Logan Act violation to get in the door. The agents who interviewed Flynn twice found no fault. The Obama administration and the FBI director said lets sit on it and see what we can come up with. The lied to the FISA Court to get warrants and they knew they were lying. Where is your outrage at the FBI and the Justice System lying and fabricating evidence. When is someone going to jail over those crimes? Democrats are full of criminal communist leaning thugs.

The Carter Page FISA and the Flynn thing have nothing to do with each other.

I mean... there are so many misconceptions in that post... that is the easiest one to get out of the way.

Yeah... but if you actually read the report you will see that they TRIED to establish a criminal conspiracy but they failed to do so.

And man did they try... but luck wasn't with them and Cohen is an idiot.

That actually makes perfect sense, too. Someone who swings like that is very easily confused and manipulated. And, that light you think you saw.....might need to have an optometrist check that out.

14 Hillary loving lawyers and a senile boss to lend credibility, 2 1/2 years,hundreds of witnesses, millions of dollars. Ya, it was all FAKE.

The ten cases of prosecutable obstruction of justice cited in the Mueller report will do just fine, thankyouverymuch. Too bad the statute of limitations for that still has a couple of years to go. Wanna bet on whether Dirtbag tries to pardon himself before leaving office? It's unclear whether that would be constitutional use of his pardon power. OTOH, he could resign before leaving office if he can get/trust Pence to do it for him. That would be a great and appropriate addition to his "legacy," wouldn't it?

30-someodd indictments including 25 against Russians for directly interfering in the election, many of whom were military officers, and you lot would rather none of that was uncovered. You'd rather have all that Russian interference stay hidden to save Trump some discomfort.
What a bunch of patriots. **** America, just save Trumps feelings.

That's it. Don't let go of all those years invested in those lies. They may be have always been worthless but, who knows, maybe they'll come true some day --- over the rainbow, by magic.
 
Flynn was targeted and set-up during the Obama administration.

He wasn't "targeted"

He talked to people he should have known were wiretapped and he was working to undermine the official foreign policy of the sitting President.

And then he lied about it.

It was all on him.

One can say that they don't care that there was a failed attempt to establish a criminal; conspiracy.

It did happen though. It wasn't fake.
 
Russia election interference was real. For sure. I agree. Trump being a dupe of the Russians? FAKE FAKE FAKE.

Funny he was only charged and prosecuted by the Dirtbag DoJ (before Toady--in every sense of the word--Barr decided to tried to drop charges when it looked like Flynn was going to get a long jail sentence). In addition to the lies your bizarre conspiracies need a lot of collaboration with your own side. That should give a sane person a second thought or two.
 
Flynn was not convicted. No court found him guilty of anything. He pled out because he lost everything he had and they were next going to target his son. Everyone in America should be appalled by what a corrupt government did to that man.

A court did find him guilty after he pled guilty and Flynn was waiting for the sentence.



Judge delays sentencing for ex-Trump aide Michael Flynn
Flynn's lawyers and U.S. prosecutors said a report from the DOJ's inspector general on the FBI's investigation of the Trump campaign could contain material relevant to his sentencing.

Another comment which shows thaat people express their views even though they do not know even basic facts.

A direct quote from the GOP controlled Senate


Page vi

Prior to joining the Trump Campaign in March 2016 and continuing throughout his time 6n the Campaign, Manafort directly and indirectly communicated with Kilimnik, Deripaska, and the pro-Russian oligarchs in Ukraine. On numerous occasions, Manafort sought to secretly share internal Campaign information with Kilimnik. The Committee was unable to reliably determine why Manafort shared sensitive internal polling data or Campaign strategy with Kilimnik or with whom Kilimnik further shared that information. The Committee had limited insight into Kilimnik's communications with Manafort and into Kilimnik's communications with other individuals connected to Russian influence operations, all of whom used communications security practices. The Committee obtained some information suggesting Kilimnik may have been connected to the GRU's hack and leak operation targeting the 2016 U.S. election.

Read that however many times it takes.

Mueller was interested in establishing a case beyond reasonable doubt in order to decide whether charges had to be pressed or not. The fact that Mueller tried to play safe, and did not insist on getting interviews from Trump and his kids, and the fact that Mueller could not investigate key people who were beyond his jurisdiction (in Russia) do not invalidate the Senate findings

He was not tried and convicted in a court of law.
 
He was not tried and convicted in a court of law.

Sullivan's court WAS court of law and Flynn was waiting for his sentence. It seems you confuse the absence of the jury with the absence of court.
 
He pled guilty... twice.

There is no need for a trial when one pleads guilty. Because.... you know... they are guilty.

And his guilty plead was accepted by a court of law. Its is this acceptance which makes Flynn guilty of the crime.
 
He was not tried and convicted in a court of law.
No, he was not tried and convicted. He plead guilty. You do know that pleading guilty is the same as being tried and convicted, don't you?
