according to three people with knowledge of the discussions.

Uhhh... Three?

(1) Schiff, (2) his dog and (3) his goldfish.

They should pardon every political conviction by left wing oppressors including James O'Keefe even though he served his time. Wipe it off the record.

Put on the pardon paper and post on whitehouse.gov a full explanation of how the conviction was a false one for political purposes only and so is being overturned in the interest of justice. Name names of the liars and prosecutors who convicted and (in the pardon) recommend they be convicted and jailed.

Too bad W. Bush lacked the cojones to pardon Scooter Libby.

Great point. He knew who the leaker was, and still let Scooter pay the price....

I think he should pardon them both.

the more writers, the less I read.

imagine 5 NYT “journos” sitting around working on each sentence until it comes out “right”....for their own agenda.

can’t sink much lower than this one, though.

To me, the only “scandalous” part is that the former lawyer has a big mouth - can see why he is no longer on board.....a lawyer overstepping and a president being in on it are different things - one must assume the lawyer knew trump likes Flynn and decided he would “negotiate” even w/o the President’s explicit consent.
