[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is what is confusing to me……

When the FBI interviewed Flynn, the agents believed he was being truthful.  Comey testified to that.

It wasn’t until the special counsel got involved that Flynn was charged.  Why?  If the FBI believed he was being truthful, why charge him?

This leads me to believe that they wanted Flynn to give them dirt on Trump, but since he had no dirt to give up, they needed to save face.  The  pressure campaign they launched against Flynn and his family resulted in a false “guilty” plea because Flynn could not afford the multi-million dollar defense that was needed.  [/quote]

This isn’t so complicated. 
They heard him on the phone ( and god knows who else also have him on tape). They have him talking to foreign adversaries. Which is bad, but what is worse is he lied about it. He made himself a security risk. He was the NSA and he did that. It’s insane. It’s unforgivable. The FBI did their job. You can say thank you now. [/quote]

But, the Director of the FBI testified that he didn't lie.  
And, he was speaking to "foreign adversaries" as part of his upcoming role.  Not a crime.  [/quote]

Part of his upcoming role? No. That’s not a thing. [/quote]

Obama's State Dept. spokesperson disagrees with you......

Jan. 13, 2017.....

Here is Toner’s full exchange with a reporter at the State Department briefing:

QUESTION: No, I got just one more. You probably have seen —

MR TONER: Excuse me.

QUESTION: — reports starting yesterday, but then more of them this morning, about contact between the incoming national security advisor and the Russian ambassador. I’m just wondering, from the State Department’s point of view, is this something that’s of concern at all? Or – I’ll just leave it there and then follow up.

MR TONER: Again, not necessarily – I’ve seen the reports. I don’t think they’ve been confirmed or corroborated yet. But that’s – as he’s part of the transition team, that’s really for them to speak to in how they are engaging. I mean —

QUESTION: Right, but —

MR TONER: — the president-elect is also engaged on his own with many world leaders.

QUESTION: Right.

MR TONER: So I don’t want to speculate and I don’t want to —

QUESTION: So there’s nothing – this building doesn’t see anything necessarily inappropriate about contact between members of the incoming administration and foreign officials —

MR TONER: No.

QUESTION: — no matter what country they’re from?

MR TONER: No.

QUESTION: Right?

MR TONER: No. And again, this has been ongoing. I mean, we stand ready if they want to work through the State Department to contact some of these individuals, but we have no comment or no problem with them doing such on their own. 13 1/13/2017

QUESTION: Okay. Thank you.

MR TONER: Yeah.
