Republican dipshit, if you plead guilty, you are convicted. ipso facto, dumbass.


Not true. Did you get your JD from the back of a cereal box?


DP. He's a convicted felon awaiting sentencing. He's not ABD, he's all the way. He pleaded guilty. Even if someone on Twitter said that somehow he's not.


This is not true. Not matter how many times or how angrily you repeat it.

OMG, you cannot be serious.

The guilty plea was entered and accepted. He is a convicted felon, awaiting sentencing.


Conviction is not considered to be complete until sentence is imposed by the Judge.


Sentencing happens after conviction.

There's this argument floating around that Flynn isn't actually convicted yet. Those are fake facts. But not unsurprising, given who he is and who his supporters are.

You say this because you have heard the recordings of what was said?

Funny, the transcripts and recordings of these "innocent" conversations have not been released. Given the law enforcement response, it was either an inconsequential series of calls that the Obama Administration used as a means by which to target Flynn and embarrass Trump, or else it was highly improper/illegal and deeply troubling.

Which one it was depends on whether you watch Fox or MSNBC (I am projecting here, but you get the point) - so the way to resolve it, release the transcripts, release the tapes and let the American public decide.

Sad


Agreed on the first point.

The bolded is so hysterically misguided and false, I don't even know where to begin.


Agree.
News flash: if you talk to foreign agents, you’re being recorded. The Trump team was too stupid to know better. Flynn really baffles me. Not the traitor part, but the imbecility.


He was talking to representatives of other countries as part of his job as incoming Nat. Security Advisor.
Reports are that he told Kislyak not to elevate the situation after Obama expelled diplomats. Why is that a bad thing?


But that's not what he said. If he'd said that, he never would have been convicted of lying to the FBI and we wouldn't be talking about this now.

Why didn't he say that? Either sheer arrogance or, what I think happened, he wasn't talking to representative of other countries as part of his job as incoming NSA but was acting entirely on his own, for himself.

He was not yet sworn in. He had not had intelligence briefs so he was making promises based on limited information. You folks are really twisting yourselves defending his bad acts.

Amicus briefs will not be accepted and were not invited. DOJ was invited to file if desired, but not ordered. Sullivan was ORDERED to respond.
