President Trump said Sunday that he is “strongly considering” a full pardon for his former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

“So now it is reported that, after destroying his life & the life of his wonderful family (and many others also), the FBI, working in conjunction with the Justice Department, has ‘lost’ the records of General Michael Flynn,” he tweeted.

“How convenient. I am strongly considering a Full Pardon!” he added.

Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 for lying to the FBI about his communications with the Russian ambassador.

If he does, Trump should hold a press conference where he describes in detail all the events that led the conviction of Flynn and he should also name names.

Uh, Barr, cleanup on aisle 6. And this time we want to see some heads. No delete that. A lot of heads. To show you care.

[Hostage]

There has got to be a serious prosecutor somewhere in the federal government that can replace Barr. I’ve given up on him. He just seems really incompetent.

[JoSixChip]

What lost records is Trump talking about, the 302s?

[SmokingJoe]

Should be done like yesterday. The one’s who should be in jail are the FBI and DOJ criminals who set him up.

[Taxman]

And, DEMAND that DOJ investigate and indict all the bad actors involved in this fiasco!

How will LTG Flynn be made whole reputation-wise and economically?

Some bad guys ‘n gals gotta pay for what they did to him!

"Uh, Barr, cleanup on aisle 6. And this time we want to see some heads."

bill bar is jeff session in redux.

Just another swamper protecting their own.

replace Barr. I’ve given up on him. He just seems really incompetent.

I came to that conclusion long ago. barr is part of the original deep state and a bushie. He talks a good game, but his actions are all about clean-up. The idea of renewing fisa after it has been used illegally against American citizens, Trump campaign, transition team and a sitting president is disgusting. Not a single person has been held accountable for that.

Flynn’s new attorney, Sydney Powell, discovered the existence of altered 302s which are case interview notes taken by interviewing agents.

The implication is they deliberately altered the notes to get an indictment of Flynn making him appear to say words that he did not say.

In other words, they LIED.

Barr has known about this for months now and not a peep.

[Rennes Templar]

True re your tagline, but include property tax.

So nice to here that the juggernaut trump train is moving down the tracks and clearing all the debris in its path while we deal with another possible attempt

As incompetent as the FBI is, they do not lose investigative material. It is their last resort, when their backs are against the wall. The completely partisan agency has no chance of changing.

If Trump is re-elected he should immediately fire FBI Director Christopher Wray ... it's the same old same old at the FBI. Wray has done nothing to bring about change.

[JoSixChip]

Barr has known about this for months now and not a peep.

barr wants Trump to pardon Flynn, he's basically said as much. I think it would be a mistake as it makes the case go away entirely. If Flynn continues to fight this in appeals, he my be able to expose the corruption. I know that is easy for me to say, I'm not paying the legal bills.

[Midwesterner53]

Ah, the formerly greatest law enforcement agency in the world. Like so many others who came with Obama, they sank to his level and became nothing more than suit wearing thugs bent on destroying any person who crossed or disagreed with His Majesty Barack. Now the agency should be either disbanded or every person hired during Obama’s tenure fired immediately. Actually, the firings should have been done two years ago.

[PGR88]

Let the case play out. I’m not sure why the judge hasn’t simply stopped the case already.

[Taxman]

I agree with you.

HST, property taxes are not a federal tax, and the FAIRtax is a federal tax issue.

Every state has its own property tax law.

“States with no property tax don’t exist. Every state and the District of Columbia imposes some form of this type of tax, but that’s where the commonality ends.”

General Flynn is a national hero

More than anyone except for our great and wonderful president, Donald J Trump , this guy has taken

slings
arrows
and bullets
for no reason whatsoever for our side

He has behavior incredibly honorably , while getting persecuted daily , by endless resources and endless lies of FEDZILLA. including our own FBI!

I would say with Sydney has his lawyer, he’s in good hands and he probably won’t even need a pardon

But great for President Trump for putting this out there! just to make liberal head spin anyway

[yesthatjallen]

As incompetent as the FBI is, they do not lose investigative material. It is their last resort, when their backs are against the wall. The completely partisan agency has no chance of changing.

Which is why Trump has to name names and describe in detail everything they did. Talk about Joseph Mifsud and his blackberry among other things and people.

Lay it all out and let the media and the FBI go into defense mode.

Are you trying to say that our annual (or quarterly) fiscal colonoscopy by an organization, the IRS, that makes the old KGB look like the PTA impinges on our God-given Freedom?

Say it ain't so!
