Flynn is a LifeLong DEMOCRAT....of COURSE he was going to LIE!!!
And they tried so, so hard with their biased, bullsh** reporting too.
Trump should consider releasing the transcript, then refusing to accept the resignation. Do it during a surprise press conference in the afternoon, after all the msm has spent the morning gloating.
Trump and Sessions are about to go draining the swamp. This is a small price to pay as it will set the standard and pave the way through which this administration will begin destroying our domestic enemies.
Spiking the ball over a first down?
Lotta game left.
So, who leaked the phone call recording?
Poorly worded. Flynn lied to Pence. That is precisely why Flynn had to leave. It had nothing to do with the Russians. For it to appear that the NSC Chair outranks the VP and can lie to the VP and get away with it would destroy any presidency.
There are times one admin official will want to give plausible deniability to another official. There are ways to communicate that so that the official in the dark artfully dodges a question. But in this case that was not done. Flynn broke a major rule of any bureaucracy.
In our work in IT we report bugs and security vulnerabilities in the software to the team lead. The team lead who wants to survive and move up the ladder knows how to give those above him plausible deniability. When I was in Vietnam I was in a bastard unit. Bastard units exist in the military precisely to give plausible deniability to the higher ranking officers.
Flynn should know this. He was fired by Obama, not for disagreement on issues, but for incompetence. That was pointed out to Trump by Republicans loyal to Trump when Trump was trying to figure out who would sit in which chair (SOS, DOD, NSC, etc).
If the Logan Act meant anything John Kerry would have been prosecuted for negotiating with the NVA in Paris while our troops were dying in combat
Deep State has been trying to undermine Flynn for a year. He is particularly dangerous to them because he was inside the belly of the beast as head of DIA and knows the game. But Flynn had been PNG since he revealed, when head of DIA, that the U.S. was supporting jihadis and even ISIS indirectly to overthrow Assad. Deep State and the puppet masters have regime change in Syria on their to-do list.
Russia's intervention in Syria has also put them on the regime change list for the puppet masters. In fact, the overthrow of the Ukrainian government in the coup occurred after and in response to Russia deciding to intervene in stopping the attack on the Syria government (in the Gulf of Tonkin-esque "red line" and bogus staged chemical attack) and giving direct support to the jihadis in doing this. Russia is our enemy because they stand in the way of the puppet masters' designs. Flynn's bellicosity toward Iran was not enough to make the puppet masters back off. After all, it's already assumed that Iran must be destroyed as well. To think otherwise now makes you a traitor, almost like WMD agnosticism in 2003.
The last 4 weeks have shown that the federal courts will control our domestic policy for the puppet masters who want open borders, Islam and multiculturalism. Now we see our foreign policy will be controlled by Deep State for the puppet masters who want to make the world safe for Davos and the financial globalist interests.
Who is correct, yesterday Townhall said resigned, today, another story.
Report: No Expectations Flynn Will Be Fired

But the Washington Post won’t investigate illegal aliens voting.
One word - trust.
All Flynn had to do was from day one lay out, directly to Pence and Trump, the entirety of his conversation, including it’s ambiguity. Trust would have been established and the ambiguity of the conversation would satisfy a diplomatic defense for it.
THAT - generating trust, was Flynn’s error. He was in one of the kinds of positions where that trust is of paramount importance.
I wonder who the leaker is....in this case, probably sally yates ?
He should have never lied to Pence.
Pray America woke
One down! The left is now embolden. How long (hours/mins) before the left targets the next scalp? Who will it be? Bannon? Conway?
Proving that we, unlike the left, hold those we appoint accountable.
