Why did Trump let a REGISTERED FOREIGN AGENT on his team?

Don't think you know what that means........

I know exactly what it means. If you don't know what it means, you shouldn't comment here.

Suspicions are not evidence. And, because all these people lived in the same universe, it was likely wishful thinking for a way to get Trump.

Flynn is literally a foreign agent. He was paid by foreign governments to lobby on their behalf during the 2016 presidential campaign. This is an undisputed fact. It should come as no surprise that he was investigated. He probably lied to hide even more illegal activity. He IS the swamp.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Flynn#Foreign_agent

On March 8, 2017, Flynn registered with the Justice Department as a foreign agent for $530,000 worth of lobbying work before election day.

Flynn sat in on classified national security briefings with then-candidate Trump at the same time that Flynn was working for foreign clients, which raises ethical concerns and conflicts of interest.[70][71] Flynn was paid at least $5,000 to serve as a consultant to a U.S.-Russian project to build 40 nuclear reactors across the Middle East, which Flynn's failure to disclose was flagged by Representatives Elijah Cummings and Eliot Engel as a possible violation of federal law.

Except, he was investigated and the FBI wanted to close the case....the FBI said there was NO derogatory information....until Stzrok intervened.

They hadn't learned about the stuff with the cleric yet. Strozk was right to keep the investigation open.

Cleric had nothing to do with the charge against him--or the interview.

When will a good reporter ask him about it? He claimed this for 2 years. We need to hear about what he claims to have seen.

Read the Mueller Report. There is plenty of circumstantial evidence. Whether the evidence is sufficient is a separate question. Facts are. Russia wanted to stir up trouble. Russia wanted, at the end, Trump to win, because they hated Hillary and because Trump had been doing business with Russians for decades. Russia wanted to help Trump. Trump himself was willing to accept that help. Trump family members and campaign staff were willing to accept that help, and took steps to accept it. RNC platform was changed in favor of Russia, with respect to Ukraine.

He filed his FARA registration in March. As part of his not-very-helpful cooperation.

So Flynn is innocent-- because a government bureaucrat waited more than five days to file their paperwork?

The original 302 has never been produced to the court or defense.
Where is it? And, what does it say?

That was only ONE of many discrepancies. Also, please remember, it was rewritten against the rules. It was edited by someone who was not present and a different agent rewrote the original. That's not the way it is done. Why did they do this?

Judge Sullivan already went through all of this in December.

Hint: none of this is a big deal.

Did he have the information about the re-write then?

For sure, he did not have the handwritten notes about setting Flynn up to lie.

Exactly. He did not have all the information because...... IT WAS BEING WITHHELD!

And, not being able to produce an original 302 is a HUGE deal in the FBI.

You haven't been following this until now?

Yes. But, there is so much new information it is hard to remember if the judge knew about the rewritten 302 then. Being late and being rewritten are two very different things.

"Setting Flynn up to lie"? He wasn't "set up." He lied. Just like he had lied to Pence, and lied to Priebus, and lied to Spicer.

I still want to know WHY did he lie? Who told him to lie? Trump? And why?
