The Post reports:
Special counsel Robert S. Mueller III on Tuesday recommended that former national security adviser Michael Flynn serve no prison time, citing his “substantial assistance” with several ongoing investigations, according to a new court filing.
Tuesday’s filing is heavily redacted, continuing to shroud in secrecy the details of what Flynn told Mueller’s team about his interactions with [President] Trump and other top officials.
But the document noted that Flynn has assisted the special counsel with its “investigation concerning links or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump campaign.”
You don’t have to be a lawyer to know that a witness does not meet with federal prosecutors 19 times for nothing. Flynn’s “substantial assistance” with investigations into communications with Russia and the transition team with the approval of a high-level official (Jared Kushner, perhaps?) goes to the heart of a possible “collusion” -- call it conspiracy -- case. Former federal prosecutor Joyce White Vance observes: “Mueller says Flynn provided substantial assistance, which is a term of art for federal prosecutors. It often means assistance that makes it possible for prosecutors to make cases on other defendants. ... His assistance looks like it’s centered on the core charge Mueller was given — to determine whether there was a conspiracy between Russia and anyone on the campaign, in an effort to influence the 2016 election.”

This is Jennifer Rubin who is always wrong and the Washington Post which is fake news. So be skeptical.
But you can see that they are saying that Flynn turned on Trump.
Once again Rubin proves her stupidity
Wow. What a mindreader! I am sure the President called her to compliment her tremendous insight. (Right after he finishes wiping.
Jenny Rube turned on the GOP, that is anyone who is NOT named Mitt Romney.
She has been clear on this in earlier writing especially at the 2018 midterms
The most important document in the entire case against General Flynn, the interviewing FBI agents’ Form 302 (where they said the don’t believe Flynn deliberately lied) wasn’t released by Mulehead, and it should have been.
This means that the rumor that the 302 had been illegally altered by Mulehead or his minions is probably true.
What they don’t see is that Mueller has been destroyed by the Patriotic Deep State (which I and many others know for sure)and has been caught dead to rights in treasonous activity. Spin is all it is and Jennifer will transform to be even uglier than she is. I will enjoy watching her melt down.
Flynn personally witnessed Trump putting ketchup on his steak 3 times, which is of course a felony. Game over for Trump!
Fake news
IMO, the redactions are a ruse to give press cover for their wild @$$ speculations.
All you have to do is read his tweets to know that.
In fact, it would be safe bet to say that he worry is not in his DNA.
The last time I saw a mouth like that...
Rodney Dangerfield
It had a HOOK in it..!!!
^_^
If so then Trump is worry free for now.
I see this face, I think of a Rodney Dangerfield, “she’s so ugly” joke.
Jebbifer wishes.....
Flynn did not give them anything as there was never anything there.
Note the lawyer wording: “links or coordination”. A link can be a conversation. OR means might be a link but no coordination. “Help with” can mean Flynn explaining there weren’t any.
By the way, Flynn himself would count as the “links or coordination”.
GMTA!
