I believe Catherine H said the redacted info pertained to ongoing crimnal investigations regarding Russia.

I read this as Don Jr.

Mueller will not stop.

Yahoo news changed their title to:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/latest-special-counsel-notes-flynns-cooperation-014325063—politics.html

Original title stressed “no jail time” replaced with title stressing cooperation.

as someone has already commented:

So, he told the Special Prosecutor about contact between Trump’s TRANSITION TEAM and the Russians


that was on the screen during Tucker’s exchange with Herridge.

MAKE THE MEME:

TRANSITION TEAM TRANSITION TEAM TRANSITION TEAM

"It does not say his felony conviction disappears. However, doesn't a Presidential pardon undo the felony conviction?

Yup and a lot more easily, lot less friction, than freeing someone from prison like might have to be done for Paul Manafort.

“transition team” = Don Jr., Eric and Jared Kushner. Nobody else of import there. Mueller is going to take his big shots shortly. At Trump’s family. No doubt.

George Papadopoulos and Carter Page were on the transition team.

Yawn.

Maybe that explains all the redactions. Didn't want to bore everyone it death with old news.

I still think the key to Flynn’s indictment was NOT the three charges related to Russia but the one related to Turkey; that Mulehead had nothing on Flynn with regards to Russia, but that Flynn in fact probably did slip up with regards to his activities with Turkey. I think that’s why the Turkey charge is in the indictment, to try to get Flynn to play ball on Russia or “we’ll Turkey you.”

Still, if he doesn’t know anything, he can’t be of help to Mulehead.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Flynn is saying Don Jr. told Trump about the Trump Tower set up.

So, to repeat the imaginary scenario I posted earlier...

What on earth could they indict him FOR?
[phone rings] “Hi, there... is this Don Jr.? We have some dirt on Hillary that will help your Dad win the campaign!”
Don Jr: “Great! When can we meet?”

[Don Jr. calls Don. Sr.]
Don Jr: “Hey, Dad! I just spoke to someone who says they have dirt on Hillary that will help you win the campaign!”
Don Sr.: “Great! I want to win!”

OK... again, WHERE’S THE CRIME HERE? Why is it now CRIMINAL for us to want to win a Presidential campaign and collect dirt on the opposition to do so? That’s called “politics,” not “crime.”

Meanwhile the damn RATS just MAKE UP crap (”Trump molested me on an airplane!” “Kavanaugh almost kinda looked like he might be thinking of raping me!”) in order to try and beat us and .... hey, NO PROBLEM with anything THEY ever do, huh?

I’m so sick of this crap I think steam is coming out of my keyboard.

All we know is that Manafort’s attorney was sharing with Trump.

Even Mule-Ears realizes that the government is going to need every available jail cell for HILLIARY, JARRETT, OBAMA, LYNCH, HOLDER, LERNER, BRENNEN, CLAPPER, RICE, ET.ALL

(Feel free to add more from your favorite hit lists..)

"H said the redacted info pertained to ongoing crimnal investigations regarding Russia."

That could mean charges against more Russian companies that don't exist, or Russian Oligarchs, neither of which will ever set foot in an American court room.

Pay attention:

Systems tend to equilibrium. No life can sustain the sheer weight of the crimes committed by Robert Mueller. You can apply any or every moral system ever known to mankind and you come up with the same equation.

What breathes will collapse, what beats will be emptied.

The redactions are of Flynn’s testimony. I really don’t think that Flynn testified about crimes Mueller and the FBI and DOJ were up to. He wouldn’t have knowledge of those and if he did, they wouldn’t have written them down.

To me, it is immaterial what kind of men Gen. Flynn, George Papadopoulos, Carter Page, or even Paul Manafort are.

Using Manafort as an example out of that group, he may be scum (he certainly sounds at various levels to be a pretentious, greedy, power hungry person) but the danger he poses to this republic is minuscule in comparison to the corruption and abuse openly engaged in by Mueller, his team, the DOJ and FBI.

Page may have been an amateur, Papadopoulos may have been too ambitious, and Gen. Flynn may have been a petty tyrant, but each of them has been illegally subjected to the full power of government surveillance and abuse.

They were subjected unfairly, not because anything they did was particularly heinous or worthy of prosecution, but because each one might provide a chink into Trump’s armor into which a crowbar might be inserted to bring him down.

But most of all, they were targeted, using their scalps to justify the ongoing “investigation”, to influence public opinion, and divert, obscure, and conceal the real illegal behavior and malfeasance by a host of people threatened with exposure when Trump was elected.

I don’t think any of them, least of all Manafort is worthy of support per-se. But they (including him) SHOULD have the support of EVERY American, because what has been done to them can and will be done to any of us, for far more innocuous reasons if this is not exposed at worst, and punished at best.

Jim Jordan says the person who should be questioned is Rod Rosenstein - in the next 26 days - because he hasn’t been questioned since it was revealed he suggested using a wire to spy on Trump.

Totally agree. One way or another, RR is at the heart of all of this.
