There goes Mueller’s witch hunt. There isn’t even anyyhing Russia related to Flynn, as he allegedly is being indicted for matters related to TURKEY. Looks like Flynn is going to put the onus back on the DOJ to prosecute ALL who have lied to the FBI, including Clinton, Podesta et al...

Remember...Comey stated that the FBI DID NOT place Hilary under oath during their questioning.

Now we know why.

I don’t think that Flynn has or will flip. It would require false witness and if he admits to lying, any lawyer could ask him if or why has he quit lying.

If the FBI questioned me for several hours over several days, I am sure they could get me on this charge too. Way to ruin a man’s life.

I feel bad for Flynn, but his mistake was not watching Hilary when it comes to testifying under oath: “I don’t remember” . . . “I can’t recall” . . . “I’m not sure if I remember that” . . . etc, etc, etc.

Doesn’t matter. The law makes it a felony to lie to a federal agent about a matter under invesigation. No oath is needed. It is why Clinton used I do not recall.

Is this perhaps the one “scapegoat” they’ll use to bring a close to the investigation? Surely Mueller knows the truth by now: Trump did not ‘collude’ with the Russians.

Yes, they can get anyone this way. From what I’ve heard, they don’t record the interview, the agents take notes. The lesson is, don’t talk to them at all—I believe once you ask for a lawyer, their questions have to stop.

Why isn’t it a crime when the FBI lies to US? Which they do all the time. Which they did about 9/11, Boston Bombing, Orlando Pulse and now Vegas. Why isn’t Robert Mueller prosecuted for being everything but a co-conspirator in the Boston Bombing?
