I remain far, far more concerned with the way the IC pervasively abuses power, often in secrecy, against American citizens, with the passive indulgence and active cooperation of the Judiciary (including FISA) than I am with the possible mistakes or crimes of Flynn.
These abuses will continue, and will damage and destroy American citizens that you and others do not consider morons or traitors.
I agree with you about all the abuses. I just don’t know that THIS case is a concrete example of them. Flynn was no ordinary citizen here, and he ended up on the wrong side of the law by his own doing. To be honest with you, I never trusted the guy. Trump’s appeal was that he was not a politician, and he ran as an outsider who wasn’t tied to the D.C. cesspool. Why he would go out of his way to bring on a longtime swamp creature — a Democrat, no less — who had made a fortune as a lobbyist is beyond me.
