did you see the content of the note written by the assistant director? “get him to lie”....not see if he lied in the past under oath, but “get him” to lie, so that he can be prosecuted or fired?

shocker that your instinct is to stick your fingers in your ears, close your eyes, and take the anti trump position, without knowing what happened.

Instinct hell it's common sense ..


Get him to lie ? jim I or the FBI can not make you lie .. you lied or you did not lie

I'd did not have sexual relations with that women... a lie

And threats to prosecution his Son .. I guess he may have done something that he could be charged for.. you don't think this tactic isnt used across law enforcement

You Trump people have your fingers in Trumps hole since this all started , that nothing happened with the Russian or in Ukraine. That's it's all been a deep state plot ,, you all even think the judge is in on it ...


What I love about this is you and others willingness to rationalize and minimize what Flynn was doing . But you response to an email server is 180 degrees in the other direction with your response ... to that... with similar a complaint. The deep state FBI didn't investigate it was a crime the conspiracy it was taken to Ukraine so on and so forth... yelling lock her up...

Your side has no credibility they make their outlandish suggestions and theories
Conducted investigation.. and still the best th they come up with is more of the same... Bengiza , Clinton's emails , Bidens son , flynn. Hydroxychloroquine, Still pushing the china created the virus didn't pan out let's go with the lab escape thing

.. it's a clear pattern for Republicans they huff and the puff and never blow anything down...

"the FBI can not make you lie "

true. But (and being in law enforcement I'd have thought you could at least get this one topic correct, but nope), the police cant create a situation to entice you to commit a crime that you wouldn't have otherwise committed. That's called entrapment, and it's not allowed, and for good reason.

"the goal" of an investigative body, is supposed to be to impartially investigate what happened. not to "get" someone prosecuted or fired.

"Your side has no credibility "

US Attorney John Durham, who cleaned up the Boston Justice Department when Whitey Bulger had everyone under his thumb, has "no credibility"? We'll see.

Yrs that's true ..but that didn't happen here. Did it

the notes show that FBI agents offered him every opportunity to come clean, even reminding him of a possible contact with Russians regarding the United Nations. The interview record “shows Flynn’s lies were direct and knowing,”

“There was nothing sneaky or circuitous about the agents' questioning. They served it up to him directly, and he responded with direct lies.”

You huffed you puffed and as usual you failed to once again to provide any supporting evidence talked about no credibility. Defending Liars whether its Trump or Flynn it's amazing the lengths you'll go to defend this administration.

So in your opinion, China was forthcoming to the world with needed details of the virus?

"Republicans they huff and the puff and never blow anything down"

Tell that to the "Hilary For President" campaign.
