Thanks! No award necessary, but please feel free to use this as you see fit. If would be great to see yet another attribution to FR if it goes national.
Your humble servant, SERKIT
Democrats + Media = collusion
He’s guilty arrest him we will make the crime later.
Yes, NRO has been absurdly, ridiculously anti-Trump, but McCarthy's article is not: he shows, convincingly I think, how Mueller is likely to proceed, even though McCarthy makes a very strong counter-case as to why any obstruction charges will be highly compromised and legally weak. McCarthy also shows how the “collusion” case, which Mueller was originally tasked with investigating, has completely collapsed.
Any charge of “obstruction “ won’t fly.
First, the President is the top law enforcement official in the land. Second, there is a very big problem with the FBI and NSA spying on an opposition party’s presidential candidate and president election.
Some would call that treason.

Youre pretty much screwed if the FBI has a transcript of a conversation and then ask you questions about that conversation 4 weeks later. I doubt I could remember every single word that I utter 4 weeks after I uttered them
Youre better off with the Hillary response: I cannot recall. You cannot be charged with obstruction for having a faulty memory.
Trying to be honest is sometimes worse if the prosecutor has already determined that youre guilty of something.
Sounds like Flynn had a crappy lawyer when he was interviewed by the FBI
So when is Mueller going to announce the indictments of the Podesta brothers and of Bill and Hill for Uranium One and Clinton Foundation influence-peddling and other nefarious deeds?
I mean that was the theory, right, that Mueller was really ‘our guy’ who was using cover of going after Trump to drain the swamp and had stacked his team with rabid Clinton and Obama partisans in order to wrongfoot critics and for the final outcome to be beyond reproach?
Flynns imunity deal is for crimes he commited during the Obama administration, it’s inthe filing. He has NO immunity while serving Trump.
It’s Obama that is being investigated along with Hillery. Comey lost his immunity deal.
>Sounds like Flynn had a crappy lawyer when he was interviewed by the FBI
He didn’t bring a lawyer when they interviewed him.
Therefore it is critical to keep the House and the Senate in the R camp, as weak and tenuous as they are.
Worse yet is he didn’t have a lawyer present when he was interviewed. Like they say, a man who represents himself has a fool for a client.
Andy misses several points one being that Flynn is immune from crimes while he served Obama, NO immunity while serving Trump. Mueller is going after the FBI, Obama and Clinton to name a few.
The other piece Andy misses is early on it was reported that the WH advised the FBI that Flynn lied.
>>Sounds like Flynn had a crappy lawyer when he was interviewed by the FBI
>He didnt bring a lawyer when they interviewed him.
So then he *did* have a crappy lawyer.
I am having a very hard time getting anything around this labor of Democrat love? God spare me!
Salient points from the article:
“attempting to undermine the policy of the incumbent Obama administration at least on the U.N. resolution condemning Israel.
damage of Trump-transition interference with President Obamas foreign relations would have been magnified by Russia involvement, given that Democrats were accusing Trump of colluding with Putin to throw the election.
conversation about the sanctions between Flynn and Kislyak look terrible, no matter how innocent they were and no matter how normal for a transition period
Mueller would theorize, Flynn had a motive, for legal and political reasons, to lie about his contacts with the Russian ambassador
Flynn was taking direction from Trump-transition officials in connection with those contacts,
President Trump had a motive to make the FBIs Flynn investigation disappear.
the theory goes, explains why Trump pressured Comey to drop the Flynn investigation, and why he ultimately fired Comey
the very next day, he told Russian diplomats was related to the pressure Trump had been facing because of Russia.
Elect, not election.
Sheesh

Then Congress would be impeaching the president for unconstitutional reasons. And then the country is "gone".
No it's not. "We shall fight them on the beaches. . ." 10 Million Patriots showing up at the Mall would happen. People are Mad to the Max right now. If they really push the impeachment crap through some legal shenanigans, then we'll show up. I hope they call our bluff. Let's get it over with.
Agreed. That was stating the worst case scenario — and the left’s goal
That’s the spirit!
