Ex-Trump adviser Flynn offers testimony if he gets immunity
Market Watch ^ | March 30, 2017 | Shane Harris

WASHINGTON — Mike Flynn, President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, has told the Federal Bureau of Investigation and congressional officials investigating the Trump campaign’s potential ties to Russia that he is willing to be interviewed in exchange for a grant of immunity from prosecution, according to officials with knowledge of the matter.

As an adviser to Trump’s presidential campaign, and later one of Trump’s top aides in the White House, Flynn was privy to some of the most sensitive foreign-policy deliberations of the new administration and was directly involved in discussions about the possible lifting of sanctions on Russia imposed by the Obama administration.

He has made the offer to the FBI and the House and Senate intelligence committees though his lawyer but has so far found no takers, the officials said. Flynn’s attorney, Robert Kelner, declined to comment.

The uniparty is desperate and will run with unconfirmed stories with reckless abandon. POTUS invited ranking members on intel comm to view evidence of surveillance of Trump outside of Russian investigation. Their world is crumbling.

You missed it. People were walking around with floppy discs. And she was sure they were activated. How stupid was she?

Wonder what she did with the money.

I’m guessing he’s a good guy....but a real hard nose. I think we’re missing a piece of the story.

Mike Allen@AMike4761

Three Obama-Aides Just Went Into Witness Protection! - Us Politics Info.com

Just read this part from that site:

” The US Justice Department, which has been preparing a case against Obama for abuse of power and illegal surveillance, confirmed that three witnesses have been added to the prosecution’s case and have agreed to turn state’s evidence in exchange for immunity.”


Warning....could be from a FakeNews site!!

I believe the flynn kidnap/rendition plot was a real conversation. He had a connection to turkey. I also believe they were in talks about flipping ..thus the response. Flynn flipping didnt come until after the reveal of the kidnap plot

He’s going to confess he was in direct communications with representatives of the Russian Government, and that they discussed sanctions.

Then he will smile and tell them it was his job to do so.

Thanks! I’m being very careful about what I believe, no matter who it seems to benefit.

Breaking on FBN. He did not offer to testify for immunity. This story is fake news.

Lou Dobbs just had an alert that Flynn has NOT offered to testify for immunity. You were right. Fake news.

The language Shannon Bream used on Special Report is he offered to testify for a “deal”. I’ll speculate: I’ll talk for $1m and not sue to loss of wages and damage to reputation for unlawful unmasking of my name.

As he hasn’t been given immunity, the story that he flipped and is testifying against Trump is probably still fake.
