does anyone believe the FBI was innocently listening in on the whole call between an incoming Trump guy and the Russian ambassador?

Wouldn't it be the FBI's job to listen in on all domestic calls to the Russian ambassador?

It’s happened before in history. Have to be careful.

What’s so scary is that CNN is considered a news organization. It does nothing but undermine the United States.

Remember this also sets the tone for the way things are going to be. When Sessions begins to expose the scum in the establishment they will be forced to resign too. The administration has taken the high ground as they campaigned on. I say replace Flynn with Sebastian Gorka who I wanted in the first place as NSA.

IIRC, it was the NSA that was listening. After the so called report ordered by Obama, he signed a directive to release all transcripts of all of Trump’s team for investigation.

From what was reported earlier about the actual conversation, Flynn did not violate the Logan Act, and he did not negotiate or offer a quid pro quo with the Russian Ambassador.

The accusation was made that he conducted Foreign policy discussion and made promises to the Russian Ambassador about lifting the sanctions, which he did not do.

If Pence asked him did you promise to lift sanctions and he said no I didn’t, that is not a lie. If Pence asked did the issue come up and he said no that is either a lie or defective memory.

Lemon wins. Rience convinced Trump to pull a weak Dubya style move, which is just chum in the water to the MSM sharks.

Trump learns from his mistakes. He’ll do better going forward.

don't watch CNN and especially the fruitcake Lemon...

but I've always been saddened that Trump chose Rience as his chief of staff...he was a poor leader of the RNC..and still I don't care for him...

There are a lot of new folks here..and some give me question of WHO THEY REALLY ARE.....

Pray daily for the Trump team, as the main stream media is EVIL AND BOUGHT AND PAID FOR WITH SOROS MONEY...Even dislike Fox News other than for a few shows...moved over to FBN, when they turn into flakes I'll just shut TV down...

we all worked so hard for Trump...never in my life time have I seen a POTUS and his Family treated as the MSM treats the Trump Family... there was a time I was addicted to FOX NEWS..FOR 18 YEARS...NO LONGER

Flynn was not let go because of conversations with the Russians. It was because he lied to VP Mike Pence about it.

Absolutely true. This must be a Hillary conspiracy, definitely not Flynn’s fault. She must be getting her sweet revenge for Flynn courageously leading the “lock her up” chant when he rightfully said he would would be in jail for doing half the things she did.

She and Obama are really savoring this moment, smh.

Darth - Gorka is a rock star. I agree 100%. I was a bit ambivalent about Flynn, but there is so much we are not aware of that is going on, it really is difficult to judge how someone is doing.

IMO he was let go because the intelligence community and GOPe (Pence, Priebus, Ryan, etc.) went after Flynn in part to keep Trump from dumping Priebus.

That the WH now has “full confidence” in Priebus is bunk. Either Trump and Bannon are stupid, which they aren’t, or they are now captive. Pence was the trump card that Priebus and Ryan could pull on Trump—and they pulled it.

I don’t know that he did lie. It would depend on what question was asked, and what he actually said.

It is not unusual for someone to hear something, and take it a step further. I have seen it happen in communications all the time.

I assume that Trump asked for it in private.

Something like this happens with every administration.

No ... it happens with every Republican administration. When did the leftists in Big Media attack 0bama's or Clinton's Cabinet? I don't remember them going after Carter this way, either.

While I applaud Trump for acting decisively, I lament the loss of General Flynn the cabinet. Not only is General Flynn a brilliant strategist and a loyal patriot, but he knew that pizzagate, Hillary, child trafficking, and the sexual perverts were truly evil. He understood what was going on. He was going to help get to the bottom of pizzagate, and his ouster is a feather in the of the Satanist globalist illuminati.

Hubby has attended meetings where Flynn has been in attendance. He thought the guy was great — very impressive. I’m sorry to see him go, too.

Someone in the inner circle is determined to take out Trump by any means necessary. I feel so bad for him.

Agree with you on Flynn.

There is monstrous evil in DC, on multiple levels.

The cabal may have won this round, but they CANNOT be allowed to win the war.

Trump knows, and like the Founders, is risking everything to save America. And I do mean everything.

I hope Flynn will yet be helpful to Trump even though not in the White House any longer.
