Flynn is reported to have lied about his contact with Russia which seems to be ordinary communications for a transition team. So why lie in the first place?
The dots are not connecting. Is this the tip of an iceberg that we are not being shown.
What else did Flynn do wrong? Is it stuff that is important to keep secret for national security? Is it stuff that is somehow related to Flynn not following directions given by administration? Is it stuff that goes deeper against Trump that we will not be privy to?
Something is missing.
Flynn was fired for lying to Trump and Pence
Hes a dem that explains all
Flynn might testify that Kushner and/or Trump told him to keep his contacts with the Russians secret. And Flynn may also say that he lied to the FBI about those contacts in the belief that he was following Trump's desire that he do so. Such a claim by Flynn could put Kushner and Trump into the crosshairs for charges of conspiracy and subornation of perjury.
In addition, or more likely, in the alternative, Flynn may provide testimony about his work for foreign interests that include Turkey and some shady Russians. In essence, Flynn did lobbying and influence peddling that crossed ethical and legal boundaries. No doubt others are involved, and Mueller could do much to justify not indicting Kusher and making an impeachment referral on Trump if he caught some nogoodniks who were clearly working against America's laws and interests on behalf of one or more foreign powers.
I could not agree with you more.
Thank you, your advice will make it into one of my upcoming sermons.
Whatever Flynn says should be viewed through the following filter:
Flynn was fired for lying to the Vice President.
Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI.
He has no credibility now at all.
