Here's another shocker

It's almost as if there's a drumpf quote from the past to directly contradict what he or his cronies are currently involved in/doing. What a maroon.

Between this and his previous statements that immunity is only for guilty people I guess there's no question.

It's too easy for my like. He's been on both sides of literally every issue forcefully and it means nothing to the faithful. They only have to listen to whichever one fits their ideals.

And it's such bad advice to boot.

It works brilliantly to garner support from those who have no qualms whatsoever with being lied to, ie Republicans. They just pick the side of him they wish to believe.

I just read "Trump is like a Hallmark card, there is a tweet for every occasion"

I'm not convinced they have any except a generalized hatred of things not them.

Still infinitely more reliable than on-the-record statements from the Trump administration!

It isn't the Fox News way. Fox hires the sources their journalists quote so you know they're fair and balanced sources.

you understand there's a distinct difference between anonymous source and disreputable source, right? I'm gonna guess not.

I wonder how globally he will take the fifth. If he answers some questions and not others, it gives us a lot more information to speculate from.

I'd bet on Congress getting nothing from him. If he spills it will be to the FBI/DOJ with a deal of immunity in hand assuming he can implicate people higher than himself.

 

[Jhhnn]

If Flynn could actually sell out Trump he'd probably already have a deal with the FBI & DoJ.

They left him twisting in the wind with a noose around his neck, his toes barely touching the ground, wolves all around.

Sux to be you, Mike! Too bad it didn't work out! Buh-bye now!

Flynn is just trying to avoid actually taking the Fifth in front of a Senate committee, having his lawyers do it for him. We'll see if that's good enough or if the good Senators need the political theater.

He might be taking it right to jail. I've been looking around and it seems that Flynn's business documents aren't viewed under the law as testimony would be. If the articles I've read are right then he could be in trouble. That of course would mean Congress acting on contempt and that is in no way guaranteed.

“The context in which the Committee has called for General Flynn’s testimonial production of documents makes it clear that he has more than a reasonable apprehension that any testimony he provides could be used against him,” Flynn’s attorneys wrote in a letter they sent to the committee’s chairman, Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.), and Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-Va.), its top Democrat, on Monday.

The committee issued a subpoena to Flynn for documents this month after he failed to produce records of contacts he had with Russian officials that the committee requested he provide voluntarily.

Flynn is the only witness for whom the committee has issued a subpoena.

His lawyers sent a letter for him. I think Flynn will be the first one to be arrested by the FBI.

Looks like those anonymous sources have proved to be more reliable than your president Dump, yet again.

[emperus]

This couldn't be any crazier even if it was a movie script. I wonder if the Trump supporters took off their "Hillary for Prison" decals.

When it involves Trump don't bet against Anon.
