WASHINGTON - Former President Barack Obama, talking privately to ex-members of his administration, said Friday that the rule of law is at risk in the wake of what he called an unprecedented move by the Justice Department to drop charges against former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn.
In the same chat, a tape of which was obtained by Yahoo News, Obama also lashed out at the Trump administrations handling of the coronavirus pandemic as an absolute chaotic disaster.
The news over the last 24 hours I think has been somewhat downplayed - about the Justice Department dropping charges against Michael Flynn, Obama said in a web talk with members of the Obama Alumni Association.
And the fact that there is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free. Thats the kind of stuff where you begin to get worried that basic - not just institutional norms - but our basic understanding of rule of law is at risk. And when you start moving in those directions, it can accelerate pretty quickly as weve seen in other places.
**SNIP**
Thats why, I, by the way, am going to be spending as much time as necessary and campaigning as hard as I can for Joe Biden, he added.

Trump should make Flynn head of the FBI
Flynn opposed Obamas Iran diplomacy / giveaways.
Yeah, his private call just happened to get leaked to Yahoo. Sure.
The General knew the Iran Deal was bad, and he was not afraid to say so on the air to a Fox reporter.
I cant believe how theyre doubling down on destroying a mans life after the proof of their evil deeds is has been released
“The Cops acted stupidly,” Barry...
The next few months leading up to the election are shaping up to be one helluva show....
You can bet the Trump side is not going to let this go and keep exposing the coup that was attempted against his administration. Hopefully some indictments are forthcoming for members of the Obama Cabal.
You can also bet the Obama side is not going away and will get more and more desperate as their actions get exposed.
I fully expect other major shoes to drop before November and I can only imagine how bad they might be....
Gen Flynn called him out for arming, funding and training isis.
Its probably as simple as Flynn being the guy who challenged Obama’s premises in meetings and exposed him consistently in front of his minions as being lazy, misinformed, ignorant and driven by electoral politics and not national security.You know, he told the truth.
Did he also talk about stirring up another Ferguson event(Red Herring) in Atlanta for a 2 month old shooting?
Ppfftt!! Isikoff...spit.
Did Isikoff get the talking points from The Sleuth or from Devlin Barrett? Perhaps, Isikoff picked up the crumpled notes from Christopher Steele’s trash can.
With Isikoff, we know he won’t put a story out there unless approved by a Dem President.
I’d sure like a list of who the other “call”/staged recording were set up on the line. With so few “uhs” Obama was clearly reading a script. No one else said anything. Just saying.
Added “Just saying” because some FReeper said it was an irritation like “At the end of the day”. ;-)
BTW - Its been a few great years not to hear the bummer say “tuh” instead of “to” - now that was irritating.
Leaked, no believes that. I can’t wait to see the Obamination in lock up.
*I can dream...
Why are these losers so scared of General Flynn? He must be a serious threat to their lies and crimes. President Trump should put the general in a position where he can go after the corrupt lowlifes.
Uh...think again.
As the Light of Truth illuminates the Obama Administration, the Democrats become more determined than ever to extinguish it--and more desperate--more unhinged--more dangerous.
Oh FUBO.
This is the man who gave an unconstitutional order (proven) to enact DACA.
This is the man who used his party to pass Obamacare by violating the rules of the legislature and which is in the process of finally being struck down.
This is the man who’s party refused to defend Prop 8 - a lawfully voted on proposition in the state of California that followed all laws and rules - so that the California courts could just strike it down because his party didn’t like it. THEN, his party publicly released the names of the donors to the Prop 8 committee so they could all be harassed and fired from their jobs.
This is the man who let soldiers die in Benghazi because he was too tired to get up.
This is the man who then LIED about the nature of the Benghazi attack and imprisoned an innocent person who put up a YouTube video about muslims that Obama LIED about causing the attack.
And now we know for a fact that he was personally involved in ordering the FBI to go after Trump before and after he was elected in an unconstitutional effort to swing an election. (we knew all along, of course)
Again I say FUBO - you are a blight on the Republic and I can only hope it survives so the real truth of your history will come out or be long forgotten
Yep, the dutiful MSM always convenienty has a stenographer standing by to echo Dems. No challenge or analysis, just the leak.
