Already saw the Trump bashing media in Miami cover this. Same media refused to report ATTORNEY GENERAL ERIC HOLDER was held in contempt of Congress.
He should plead the 5th. Any of the targets should at this point. It’s the smart thing to do .
Yep, nothing good can come from talking.
Lois Lerner invoked the 5th didn’t Shea?
She did but there was a whole thing about whether she did it right...I don’t remember what came of that..
Of course. Present your evidence.
If you don’t have it, quit wasting my time.
Come’on, only Democrats are allowed to plead the 5th!
Absolutely the right move. This is a lynching, the risk for accidental perjury is huge. They will go over every letter with a fine tooth comb and if he mixed up anything the perjury trap is set then it’s on.
He should state his innocence and then plead the fifth as Lerner did.
Flynn seems to have many ‘rat connections.
I’m sure he has many connections. He is a General Officer.
What is your point?
I wouldn’t even do that. A lib judge might say he waived his right to the 5th amendment by testifying. They shouldn’t..but they might.
Mr Flynn, We are going to kill you, if we can. Would you please help us by giving us the ammunition?
Answer F (Forever) NO! I invoke my fifth amendment rights.
Yes, she did. The main difference is when a Democrat invokes the 5th, the media assumes innocence and report accordingly. When a Republican invokes the 5th, the media assumes and reports guilt.
I believe that Comey is still under oath from previous testimony. So taking the 5th is a moot point for him.
He should. Congress will do no good for Flynn.
Or just not show up.
Mr Flynn, We are conducting a witch hunt and we would like you to participate.
Ugh, NO!
The lawyers are saying that the main purpose of the special counselor is to set up perjury traps since there are no crimes. I suppose that is what he is avoiding.
Indeed.
