McCabe said agents who interviewed Flynn 'didn’t think he was lying'
The Hill ^ | 05/04/18 | Olivia Beavers

The House Intelligence Committee on Friday released a newly unredacted section of its final Russia report detailing testimony from former senior FBI officials about the probe into former national security adviser Michael Flynn and his contacts with a top Russian diplomat.

The unredacted portion of the report, written by Republicans on the panel, details testimony from former FBI Director James Comey and his then-deputy, Andrew McCabe. The report says McCabe, in particular, testified that the two agents who interviewed Flynn “didn’t think he was lying."

Despite the agents' initial impressions, McCabe reportedly testified that officials found that Flynn’s statements to investigators were “inconsistent” with their “understanding of the conversation that he had actually had with the ambassador.”

Etc...

Then it was Comey who made the decision to go after Flynn for “lying to the FBI,” by disregarding the opinions of his field agents including Peter Deep Stroke.

I’d like to see those two go after each other in court. :)

” The report says McCabe, in particular, testified that the two agents who interviewed Flynn “didn’t think he was lying.””

Immediate PARDON. And the arrest of whoever decided to prosecute him anyway. This is war.

Comey has been lying about this. What he said on television versus what he said to Congress. Comey is a liar.

According to court documents filed by the special counsel's team, Flynn lied when he told investigators that he did not ask Kislyak to "refrain from escalating the situation" in response to sanctions that then-President Obama had levied on Russia in response to meddling in the election.

That's it? That's Flynn's big crime? That he did not have a perfect memory of a conversation?

“That’s it? That’s Flynn’s big crime? That he did not have a perfect memory of a conversation? “

And that is why President Trump should not sit down with Mueller or anyone from his little band of Marxists! They already know the answers to their questions. It’s simply a perjury trap. Trump should have a sit down with Martha Stewart about how this works!

Flynn was railroaded by the commie libs from the Democratik Communist party in their search to find someone, ANYONE, who they could scare the bejeezus out of and tell them lies about President Trump. Mueller and his band of Clintoon lawyers suck.

Thanks yesthatjallen. I find myself remembering how Snuffleupagus defied and even threatened Ken Starr during interrogation.

Comey became a global communist agent. He did not respect our election nor the authority over him - legally nor personally.
