Michael Flynn pleaded guilty last Friday to a false statement charge brought by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office in relation to the Trump-Russia investigation. However, the case against former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn is falling a part, as U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras abruptly recused himself Thursday night with no explanation. Contreras is an Obama appointee who also sat on the FISA court while the Trump team was under surveillance by the Obama administration. Flynn made the deal because they threatened going after his son and because he was running out of money for his legal defense.
The case against Flynn, however, is not so straightforward. As Robert Parry pointed out last week:
"What is arguably most disturbing about this case is that then-National Security Adviser Flynn was pushed into a perjury trap by Obama administration holdovers at the Justice Department who concocted an unorthodox legal rationale for subjecting Flynn to an FBI interrogation four days after he took office, testing Flynns recollection of the conversations while the FBI agents had transcripts of the calls intercepted by the National Security Agency.
In other words, the Justice Department wasnt seeking information about what Flynn said to Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak the intelligence agencies already had that information. Instead, Flynn was being quizzed on his precise recollection of the conversations and nailed for lying when his recollections deviated from the transcripts."
Fucking classic /pol uses notation from congressional communications to "prove" a pizza place is used for child sex. Yet refuses to believe those who would lose their business if they didn't have integrity. While FOX uses opinion as fact drumph tards lap it up like cuck bitches getting pissed in by its alpha. Is it edgy to be stupid? Is it edgy to only beleive the news you like? Even if Trump didnt break the law, /pol is so beta to him the don't even see him sucking Putins dick.

Remember how graciously W left office? I remember watching, and was frankly shocked. You can expect if a (D) get's elected in 2020 or 2024, the Trump admin will be fucking every person coming in. This is a bad precedent.
Matthew Roberts
This, as Parry points out, would require that the Russians first would have detected the discrepancies; secondly, they would have naively assumed that the U.S. intelligence agencies had not intercepted the conversations, which would have negated any blackmail potential; and thirdly, the Russians would have to do something so ridiculously heavy-handed trying to blackmail Flynn that it would poison relations with the new Trump administration.
In other words, Michael Flynn was surveilled under a FISA warrant, then set up to fail by Sally Yates when he deviated from the transcripts of his intercepted conversations. And the judge overseeing his case, who is on the FISA court, has suddenly recused himself.
Last but not least, journalist Sara Carter revealed on hannity.com that the anti-Trump agent fired from Robert Mueller's Special Counsel, Peter Strzok, was one of two FBI agents who interviewed Flynn on January 24 at the White House, according to a former intelligence official with knowledge of the interview.

David Mitchell
Outgoing President Barack Obama had warned Trump not to hire Flynn, who had been fired by the Democratic president in 2014.
What Trump has said about Michael Flynn since firing him March 31 -- Twitter - The day after Flynn's lawyer released a statement asking for "assurances against unfair prosecution" if he were to testify in front of the Senate and House Russia investigations, Trump weighed in on Twitter.
"Mike Flynn should ask for immunity in that this is a witch hunt (excuse for big election loss), by media & Dems, of historic proportion!"
April 30 -- Interview with CBS News with John Dickerson - Trump pointed to the Obama administration for giving Flynn security clearance in the first place.
"I didn't realize this, when he went to Russia, it was 2015 and he was on the Obama clearance. When General Flynn came to us, as you now know, he already had the highest clearance you can have. I think the same clearance as the president of the United States would have. He had this really high clearance."

Do you think the Clintons have something on him? Maybe they have pictures or even video of David diddling little kids. Really activates the old almonds, doesn't it.
Christian Roberts
The judge has more than likely seen the light that the FISA warrant was a sham
Asher Morgan
Maybe, but that wouldn't result in recusal. He'd have to disclose that immediately if he had proof. If he didn't have proof, just a hunch, you don't recusal yourself on a hunch.

Oh like in England where kebab shop was used to chop and murder a little girl and the police covered it and used a mad cow outbreak to hide the fact the pakis feed her meat to people?
A guilty plea can be recanted for MANY reasons especially when the plea was made under duress or was done by entrapment which both would apply to this situation if what has been said ends up being true.

In other words, when it's a good thing your shitty boss says that he fired you.
Flynn jumped ship when he found out that Obama along with his Wahabbist brethren Brennan were funding ISIS, Al Qaeda, FSA or whatever name de jour they had for the terrorists and prepared to testify to Congress about the illegal arms deals that the CIA were running.

Basically. Think Flynn was going to drop the redpill that Libya/Benghazi was a middle-east Fast & The Furious operation with the wahabbi communist cocksucker Brennan, a treasonous cianigger, was funneling arms to islamists. That's why the WH went into panic mode and threw out a bunch of fake news and bullshit when their arms dealing ambassador got murdered by the religion of peace he was selling arms and chemical weapon to so that the Deep State could False Flag the USA into Syria. Special lulz at how Obama, Hillary and CIAkike Brennan brought human slavery back to Libya thanks to the treasonous criminal warmongering shit they were doing to/in that country.

When I read about the circumstances behind how he was cornered in the WH by Strzok and another goon, who called ahead under the guise of standard new administrative information session, I knew it was all over for them. That is absolutely a perjury trap, just like the perjury traps they tried to set against Don Jr using Goldstone/Veselnitskaya (Felix Sater another one), and lke they tried to set against Assange (Toddandclare.com fiasco)
It took a year but the right questions are now finally being asked and out in the open
Joseph Bailey
McMaster will be hung upside down in a Riyadh hotel next to George Soros while Flynn is reinstated as the National Security Advisor
How many other people who ended up in the admnistration (or career officials who havent left like that Bruce Ohr DOJ asshole James Rosen exposed yesterday) knew about what was going on re: the Flynn entrapment game and the whole FBI-Dossier hoax gambit? McMaster for certain. I'm sure a few others

Dems were so fucking desperate to get dirt on Trump, steal the primary from Bernie, and cover-up their corruption, SAD! Bruce Ohr and Peter Strzok may the Keys to opening the floodgates of truth!
Anthony Wright
I think youre right user, but I dont like either name being used as the fall guy on the whole operation. I worry that they'll now try to tie it all on those two and Steele and ignore all their much more significant handlers/enablers in the Obama administration and Clinton inner circle. Jim Jordan did a great line of questioning at FBI Director Wray yesterday about Strzok, and emphasized at the end if all of what is said about him is in fact true, then the enormity of this matter isnt even fully comprehended yet, because of who all else Strzok's actions implicate as having approved them

Fact Flynn was surveilled under a FISA Fact The FISA warrant was approved by the now recused judge Fact The FISA warrant sought was initially rejected Fact The FISA warrant granted was only done so after the "dossier" was presented as an intelligence document to the FISA court Fact The "dossier" funded and coordinated by the Clinton inner circle and Bruce Ohr (among others) at the DOJ and FBI Fact The FISA warrant presented to the court with "dossier" "evidence" was brought by Peter Strzok

Are you going to cite this alternative timeline where he was exonerated and the investigation was about the Podestas and Clinton? People can't be that dumb, can they?.... Oh I forgot I am addressing amerimutts..my bad, carry on.

Fact The conclusions letter was drafted by Comey before the investigation into the Clinton server was finalized. Further: the phrase "gross negligence" was replaced with "extremely careless", by Strzok.

Good for Flynn!
I was very disappointed to see him take that plea. Very hard to unwind once you sign -- it's an admission of guilt. Could still be pardoned, theoretically, although I wonder how many presidential pardons have been given to those who *admitted* guilt.
Section 1001, under which Flynn originally pled guilty, is a TERRIBLE LAW that we should get rid of.
Why the hell should it be a felony to lie to an FBI agent **when not under oath**???
Federal criminal law is filled with overreaching statutes, but Section 1001 is probably the worst.
