Flynn Flam Scam!

By Thornton Crowe

We've all seen throughout last Friday the balderdash about General Micheal Flynn's plea agreement inside the Mueller investigation of some Russian collusion allegations leveled by Democrats. Brian Ross, ABC journalist [sic], known for his past scrapes with faking news issues, was suspended and the network issuing an 'I'm sorry' memo to America for the plethora of Fake News propagated by Ross's report. Sadly, because this action and apology didn't happen until the the wee hours on Saturday morning, very few people got that information and of course, the stock market took a 305-point nose dive because of the false reports about the so-called Logan Act violations and Flynn's non-existent agreement to testify against President Trump.

In truth, everything General Flynn did was legal with the exception of a procedural violation of lying to the FBI about his conversation with the Russian ambassador. One must note, during transitions (which was after the election) it is standard protocol for the incoming administration to talk with world leaders. This has been executed for decades and it would've raised eyebrows had the Trump Administration not reached out after the election. In fact, the State Department arranged for these meanings, meaning the Obama Administration approved of the exchanges between Flynn and world leaders. There is even video circulating on Twitter, showing the spokesperson verifying Flynn had permission to speak to Russians and any other country.


Many don't remember but Obama and Romney went to foreign countries and met with world leaders during the election; therefore, Ross's assertions were preposterous at best. However, it's just another example (of many) how Democrats are grasping at very short straws to impugn our duly elected president without paying any attention to precedent or standard operating procedures and protocols set in place for decades.

Why did General Flynn lie about his interactions to Vice President Pence? We don't know exactly but Catherine Herridge from Fox News did state the FBI reviewed his questioning and didn't find sufficient reason to charge him with lying.

In many ways, this proves only one thing about the Robert Mueller investigation: He has found no Russian Collusion with the Trump campaign. All three indictments were not based on any election situation at all. It's just another Nothingburger which reveals the huge nothing investigation, filled with leaks, misinformation and no findings of merit.

The real question is this, how did Mueller get the transcripts for these interactions? Simple: A FISA warrant based on a now-debunked Trump Dossier paid for by the FBI/Clinton. This is clearly a Fourth Amendment violation against Flynn's right to due process. The evidence gathered from said warrant would no doubt be inadmissible, so why did Flynn cop to a deal?

Many people close to Flynn and his family have relayed Mueller 'broke' Flynn with harassment and threats against his family. Hence, this is the sole reason he decided to plea out to spare his family and the expense for which he could no longer financially afford to defend.

Now, the question to you is this: We now that we know Mueller and his team's KGBesque behavior towards every intended target (think Manafort's early AM raid; guns drawn and all), can we call into question the legitimacy of this investigation? Furthermore, is this the America we want for our children? Law Enforcement bullying people into false admissions due to coercion? This is exactly what happened to Flynn - pure and simple coercion. Is this what we are going to accept in the FBI's future dealings with the public - law-abiding or not?

Just remember, folks, in the McCarthy era, many were unjustly vilified, harassed and unduly chastised by Muelleresque prosecutors whom were given unfettered authority to do as they wanted -- and we rejected this practice. So why are we putting up with it now?

Note, if lying and leaking are such travesties, when is Mueller charging former FBI Director, James Comey? And if everyone's so upset about Logan Act violations, when are they going after Obama for his Trump-shadow tours throughout Europe and Southeast Asia?

Maybe a broadcaster intentionally lying to the public should be a federal crime.

I understand that your premise is that this is a made-up investigation. Why would Mr. Flynn plead guilty?

Never thought I would live to see the day when someone would have an orgasm live on day time TV. That is exactly what happened to Joy Behard when she was reading the Fake News put out by ABC's Brian Ross who has since been slapped down to where he belongs for trying to spread lies. Doesn't surprise me about Behard though. Democrats are so gross and so perverted that having an orgasm on live TV is perfectly acceptable behavior to them.

1035 if you bothered to read the article it says why Flynn copped to a plea. He was broken. He literally ran out of money and his family was threatened, particularly his son by Mueller and his team.

This is all a trick and Mueller is in on it to bring clintons and others down. Now Flynn is out as ever being a witness for anything. He's basically admitting he lies so anything he would say if he is to testify is to be taken with a grain of salt. It's a game being played so it doesn't look like the Trump admin is going after Clinton even though she is as rotten as anything out there. The ignorant democrats don't understand and would say Trump is going after his political opponents like a dictator. This is a scheme cooked up by Trump, Sessions, Mueller and others to bring the putrid skank Clinton to her knees where she belongs.

After doing the plea agreement he's screwed. Now he has a record maybe. As for Ross, he's a hack. People doubt fake news all the time but it's there and those same people believe all the false crap. It's a shame some hate Trump so much they'd buy this false garbage.

Wonder why the news didn't mention anything about that video and that Obama's State Dept okayed the meetings!

Because he lied to FBI about talking to Russian ambassador the same reason why he got fired. (And you no that so stop) Why can't you look at what has been happening in the past several years? Your like karate black belt expecting to win a MMA fight (not going to happen)Look at all of it instead of a narrative that has been pounded into your head by multi millionaire tv mainstream media host. Nothing will happen to President Trump more democrats will fall and president Trump will win 2020. Thanks you him I will have more money in my household. First time in my life I'm getting a tax break. Facts are facts.

Just shows how much in bed the Democrats and media are together. People rejoicing the destruction of America because they don't like a president? They don't seem to realize when America fails they fail, too. Idiots. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Trump's election has got the stage and Americans are taking the front row seats. Transition teams have always talked to world leaders, no crime, no ethic problem there. He lied, so what? You peeps accepted Bill Clinton continuously lying about his sexual predatory situations. Why are you all so busted up now? After Clinton, lying don't mean shite anymore.

Liberals lie to themselves everyday when they deny Trump has done a world of good for us already and that's before tax reform.

All the evidence against Hillary and democrats and no one is in jail yet but continue to get this tit for tat.

Democrats never learn. They're like broken records singing the same songs over and over again. They point their fingers at everyone when they're the ones doing what they accuse others of doing. What we're seeing is the death rattle of liberalism in America. It's not going down without a fight. Ain't it entertaining?
