Oops! Just heard while typing this is that nobody is taking his offer (MSNBC). Must mean they got a big pile of evidence already.

Buckle up for what................no useful testimony should he go before the Senate Intel Committee???

Like someone else already said, it indicates they don't need or want whatever info he's got. Meaning they've got it or enough already. Why let him off when you don't need to?

Or they have nothing and don't feel he will give them anything they're seeking by giving him immunity

 

[VRAMdemon]

Maybe Flynn is willing to give damaging testimony. But the people with the power to grant him immunity should be careful how they handle this situation. Right now they have something that Flynn seems to want. That gives them leverage to try and get to the truth of the matter. They shouldn't just give up that leverage without knowing what they're getting in return.

Yes, entirely likely ... /sarcasm

 

[HomerJS]

Flynn was working on the Trump transition team while secretly working for foreign countries. Remember the retro-active registering?

That could be big trouble.

 

[FIVR]

As a consummate traitor, Flynn should have no trouble turning on the Trump administration. His whole career has been a long series of "Find Back; Insert Knife".

I've been waiting and watching for the shoe to drop.............sure seems like a long ass time so far.
Knowing how Washington is if the Dems had any real evidence we would have know within seconds of it being discovered.

You think a few months is a long ass time? These investigations usually last years before indictments are handed out. The FBI will probably be investigating Trump for this and other things for most (or all) of his term as there are so many different aspects of it.

So far this has been moving very quickly and I'm sure you would admit, pretty badly for Trump. I don't believe there has ever been an administration in this much trouble this quickly.

 

[VRAMdemon]

IMO, if Flynn really had the goods on anyone higher up the food chain, and was willing to give them up, the negotiations for him to testify would be going on in private. He would let the investigators know what information he had, then work out a deal for immunity, then testify in public. By making the offer the way he did, no investigating agency would agree to it. They're not going to give him immunity until they know what he has to say. And making the offer in public looks like he's trying to force the hands of the FBI and congressional committees; which is a sure way to piss off the very groups he should be making nice with to get a deal done.

I haven't seen any concrete evidence to condemn anyone at this point. Though I can see that some in here have convicted them without said evidence. I will continue to reserve judgement until I see the evidence that can be used to convict someone.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

NBC is reporting that the senate intel committee will not grant Flynn immunity. Buckle up.

Is this a definite? No other reputable (fake) news has any mention of it.

 

[zinfamous]

just keep your ears plugged and eyes closed for the next 2 years and you'll be OK.

man, you must have no patience. If there is a real investigation happening, which seems likely, then it requires months if not years to properly gather evidence, vet the evidence and sources, connect the dots before anything becomes public. The last thing you want to do is to let criminals and weasels snake away for lack of proper diligence.

Your belief that "real evidence being made public instantly" alludes to some nonsense idea that TV investigations are like real life. I doubt that you or I are on any sort of need-to-know priority in such matters, so there's a very good reason that we are not made aware of the facts of the investigation.

That's what most people are doing. That being said, having your national security adviser who resigned in disgrace publicly seeking an immunity deal barely two months into your term is truly astonishing. Like I said, he's been able to get himself in an amazing amount of trouble very quickly.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

No, my eyes are open and my ears unplugged just waiting for the evidence to come forth. Then and only then will I call for the full force of the law to be imposed. The left is foaming at the mouth over everything that is released most of which is hasn't been substantiated with hard, cold evidence.

Or it means that what he wants to say is of little evidentiary value so they don't want to give away the potential for prosecution for nothing.

This is weird as I've seen very little 'foaming at the mouth'. Most left-leaning people on here (with a few exceptions of course) are all about taking a measured approach even in the face of ever-increasing 'smoke' about the whole Russia issue.

This is in marked contrast to the last eight years under Obama where conservatives were going absolutely bananas at every imagined shadow they saw, even though those shadows were FAR less serious than colluding with a hostile foreign power. FEMA camps, confiscation of guns, birtherism, secret muslim-ism, martial law, etc. And before you claim those are all fringe ideas, check out polls examining what percentage of conservatives believed things like birtherism or secret muslim-ism. Conservatives could stand to learn a lot from liberals about how to foam just a bit less.

Well, once again

Or it means that what he wants to say is of little evidentiary value so they don't want to give away the potential for prosecution for nothing.

What I'm hearing so far is that's it's just too early. They may revisit immunity further down the investigation.

Noticed some artifacts from aborted editing above. God I hate Edge right after an update!

It's the same ole crap, minority party politics. I have no doubt you can't see it.

 

[zinfamous]

It's the same ole crap, different minority politics. I have no doubt you can't see it.

so secret muslim, birtherism, gun-gathering is the "same ole crap?" Where were all the congressional investigations to get the bottom of those "same ol crap" things? I have no doubt you can't see the clear difference. You did say your eyes are wide open, so I can only trust that you are as legitimately rational as you want us to think you are.

 

[fskimospy]

It's the same ole crap, minority party politics. I have no doubt you can't see it.

Well right, but that's because there simply isn't the same amount to be seen. Having nearly half of Republicans believing that Obama was secretly a Muslim and about 40% thinking he wasn't born in America is not even remotely similar to liberals being outraged that the president is under active investigation by the FBI for espionage. Only a fool would try to equate the two.

Like I've said many times it's the same ole crap where people try to act like two wildly asymmetrically polarized sides are the same. Lazy thinking disguised as impartiality.

Senate panel rejects Flynn's request for immunity, for now:

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...equest-for-immunity-nbc/ar-BBz7GPL?li=BBnb7Kz

The former national security adviser's lawyer was told immunity was "wildly preliminary" and "not on the table" at this point, a senior congressional official told NBC. It does not necessarily rule out immunity at a later date, as the Senate investigation is ongoing.

This confirms what I suspected based on the tone of Flynn's press release. He's not offering anything except to save them the trouble of issuing a subpoena. He's trying to get a sweetheart deal.

That's great. Interesting to see what Nunes does.
