There are simple answers to the “obstruction” charge.
Was the investigation regarding Lynch terminated? No. Has it since been terminated since Comey was fired? No. Both Congressional committees and the DOJ/FBI continue to look into the charges against Flynn. Ergo - no “obstruction” of justice has occurred.
President Trump's beehive is getting VERY agitated...
