FBI to Michael Flynn: “Trust us. You don’t need a lawyer”

Loading

 

On January 24, 2017, the FBI interviewed Michael Flynn. At the time, Flynn was found to have done nothing wrong.



The FBI eavesdropped on telephone calls between President Donald Trump’s national security adviser and the Russian ambassador but found nothing improper, a U.S. intelligence official said.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media, said late Monday that there was never a formal “investigation” of the calls in December between retired Army Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn and Sergei Kislyak, Russia’s ambassador in Washington.

According to the source, who was confirming a Washington Post report earlier Monday, intelligence officials merely listened in as part of routine eavesdropping on Kislyak.

Yesterday we learned something critical- proof that Michael Flynn was set up by the FBI to take a fall. Many have wondered why Flynn would talk to the FBI without a lawayer present. It turns out that the FBI told Flynn NOT to include a lawyer.

Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, who arranged the bureau’s interview with then-national security adviser Michael Flynn at the White House on Jan. 24, 2017 — the interview that ultimately led to Flynn’s guilty plea on one count of making false statements — suggested Flynn not have a lawyer present at the session, according to newly-filed court documents. In addition, FBI officials, along with the two agents who interviewed Flynn, decided specifically not to warn him that there would be penalties for making false statements because the agents wanted to ensure that Flynn was “relaxed” during the session.

The new information, drawn from McCabe’s account of events plus the FBI agents’ writeup of the interview — the so-called 302 report — is contained in a sentencing memo filed Tuesday by Flynn’s defense team.

Citing McCabe’s account, the sentencing memo says that shortly after noon on Jan. 24 — the fourth day of the new Trump administration — McCabe called Flynn on a secure phone in Flynn’s West Wing office. The two men discussed business briefly and then McCabe said that he “felt that we needed to have two of our agents sit down” with Flynn to discuss Flynn’s talks with Russian officials during the presidential transition.

Who led this charade? None other than Andrew McCabe:

McCabe, by his own account, urged Flynn to talk to the agents alone, without a lawyer present. “I explained that I thought the quickest way to get this done was to have a conversation between [Flynn] and the agents only,” McCabe wrote. “I further stated that if LTG Flynn wished to include anyone else in the meeting, like the White House counsel for instance, that I would need to involve the Department of Justice. [Flynn] stated that this would not be necessary and agreed to meet with the agents without any additional participants.”

Worst of all?

“The agents did not provide Gen. Flynn with a warning of the penalties for making a false statement under 18 U.S.C. 1001 before, during, or after the interview,” the Flynn memo says. According to the 302, before the interview, McCabe and other FBI officials “decided the agents would not warn Flynn that it was a crime to lie during an FBI interview because they wanted Flynn to be relaxed, and they were concerned that giving the warnings might adversely affect the rapport.”

They screwed him royally. This is atrocious. This is how the Comey/McCabe cabal ran the FBI. The country is once again reminded of the two tiered justice system established by James Comey; one for the democrats, and another for everyone else.

hillary clinton’s aides were given immunity.

hillary and her aides were allowed to destroy evidence.

hillary and her aides were allowed to dictate the terms of the investigation and interviews.

Cheryl Mills was allowed to sit in on hillary’s FBI interview. Andy McCarthy:

Finally, something else about those lawyers. I nearly fell out of my chair upon reading the very first paragraph of the notes of Clinton’s interview, which identifies the lawyers for Clinton who were permitted to be present for the interview. Among them is Cheryl Mills, Clinton’s longtime confidant and chief-of-staff at the State Department.

Readers may recall that I suggested back in May that “the fix” was in in the investigation of the Clinton emails. The reason was that the Justice Department was allowing Cheryl Mills – a witness, if not a subject, of the investigation – to invoke attorney-client privilege on behalf of Mrs. Clinton in order to thwart the FBI’s attempt to inquire into the procedure used to produce Clinton’s emails to the State Department. Mills was a participant in that procedure – and it is the procedure in which, we now know, well over 30,000 emails were attempted to be destroyed, including several thousand that contained government-related business.

When she worked for Clinton at State, Mills was not acting in the capacity of a lawyer – not for then-Secretary Clinton and not for the State Department. Moreover, as Clinton’s chief-of-staff, Mills was intimately involved in issues related to Clinton’s private email set up, the discussions about getting her a secure BlackBerry similar to President Obama’s, and questions that were raised (including in FOIA requests) about Clinton’s communications.

hillary’s FBI interview was neither under oath nor recorded.

Paul Sperry reported that FBI lawyer James Baker wanted to indict hillary clinton but was overruled by you guessed it- James Comey.

James Comey is a pompous lying jackass who needs a good enema. Mueller should also get one. Flynn was framed- as I said nearly a year ago. Mueller then went on to ruin Flynn financially and finally got Flynn to cop a plea when Mueller threatened Flynn’s son with the same.

Michael Flynn was a three star general with 33 years of service, five of them in combat. He deserves better.

Want more proof that this is pure politics? The leak of the Flynn-Kislyak conversation is an egregious felony but Mueller has zero interest in it. As the Russian collusion fantasy falls apart completely democrats are turning to Trump’s personal finances.

It’s not about justice. It’s all politics and it needs to end. Mueller has created crimes that did not exist prior to his investigation.

Enough.

BTW, so you know:

In one striking detail, footnotes in the Flynn memo say the 302 report cited was dated Aug. 22, 2017 — nearly seven months after the Flynn interview. It is not clear why the report would be written so long after the interview itself.

Clearly, it went down that way so someone could rewrite it to incriminate Flynn.

@Richard Wheeler:

Here you go with questions when you didn’t answer mine last week re your thoughts on Repub fraud in N. Carolina Congressional election–get that done and we’ll move on Thanks

I don’t remember it. Hit me again or remind me where it was.

@kitt: We’re not going to know what the original 302 said; Mueller’s not leaving any tracks, like erasing Page’s and Strzok’s phones before the IG got ahold of it. He’s gone full Clinton on leaving any traces. If friendly forces don’t already have the documents in their possession, they are long gone. If there was anything in the answers to the written questions of use to the coup, we would have already heard.

@Skyshark: The same people also don’t understand why we defend the pesky Constitution either so it’s no surprise they embrace the Lavrentiy Beria standard when it comes to those of us like Gen Flynn who don’t embrace leftism.

@DrJohn, #49:

If we’re meaning entrap him as “catch him in a repeated lie in such a way that he could be held legally accountable for it,” that is probably an accurate statement.

The FBI did not make him tell the lie, nor did they set up the meetings with Sergey Kislyak to give Flynn something to lie about. Flynn did all of that himself. The “entrapment” consisted of catching him lying about it.

This is how investigative interviews with suspects tend to work. It’s how the truth of things is eventually revealed. You catch the people who are lying about what happened in a net of their own lies. Until you do, their lies conceal that truth.

Actual entrapment involves a contrived situation where the act itself wouldn’t even have occurred without the artificially created opportunity. I don’t see anything like that here. I see a successful maneuver that revealed a lie which was intended to hide something. It’s establishing that something that Mueller is interested in.

@Greg:

If we’re meaning entrap him as “catch him in a repeated lie in such a way that he could be held legally accountable for it,” that is probably an accurate statement.

Have you ever seen the “lie” Gen. Flynn told? I still put a lot more credibility in the statement made after the interview by the interviewers that he didn’t lie than a 302 thrown together 7 months later by a grandstanding liar saying he did.

From Mueller hand picking a team that hated Trump and worshiped Hillary to this latest revelation that the 302 is an after-the-fact revision of history, this “investigation” is exactly the witch hunt it has been characterized as.

@Deplorable Me, #55:

Have you ever seen the “lie” Gen. Flynn told? I still put a lot more credibility in the statement made after the interview by the interviewers that he didn’t lie than a 302 thrown together 7 months later by a grandstanding liar saying he did.

As has been pointed out repeatedly, the interviewers weren’t recording a judgement about the truthfulness of Flynn’s assertions; rather, they were recording their impressions regarding his manner in making them. Recording such impressions is a routine part of the note-taking protocol during FBI interviews. They don’t decide what’s true or false on the fly. That’s simply not how things work.

He appeared to be telling the truth is not the same thing as saying his statement was truthful. Determining what’s true or false is done in the context of all collected statements and evidence. If you think about it, you’ll realize that doing otherwise makes very little sense.

@Greg: There was nothing routine about that inquisition of Flynn

The FBI did not make him tell the lie, nor did they set up the meetings with Sergey Kislyak to give Flynn something to lie about. Flynn did all of that himself. The “entrapment” consisted of catching him lying about it.

Flynns conversation with an ambassador was totally routine and he would have been derelict in duty had he not been setting up contacts with important world powers. If the original 302 is not produced for the court this case should be dismissed with extreme prejudice.

@Greg: Your bullshit doesn’t work on me. Spread it elsewhere. They had the answers to the questions they were asking. They said he didn’t lie. So, that is pretty much that.

Seven months later, Mueller needs to try and get Gen. Flynn to lie for him. He rewrites the 302 and tells Gen. Flynn he is going to pursue him to the end of his ability to defend himself unless he turns on Trump. He won’t lie. So, he threatens his family; Gen. Flynn pleads guilty to lying, but still won’t lie about Trump.

At this point, the persecution of Gen. Flynn is becoming an embarrassment and Mueller lets him off with no jail time to try and get him to shut up and drop it.

Not working out so well for him.

Writing a fresh 302 seven months after the event is not the same as being honest… is it?

I know it’s a long time ago but I am still confounded by the statement in post #17. “What we’re seeing with numerous articles like this is a coordinated effort by Trump loyalists to publicly discredit Flynn’s sworn testimony.” Can anyone who actually pays attention make a statement like that in any degree of seriousness? What Trump loyalists? CBS? NBC? ABC? MSNBC? CNN?
Any newspaper in any major city in this country? Three quarters of the republican members of either the House, or the Senate?
The vaunted ( in Greg’s mind ) Trump loyalists who can be heard in any meaningful way could hold a national meeting in a C-Store and not fill up all of the isles.

@71 Grad: Truth and facts mean nothing to liberals. Only propaganda.

@DrJohn: It would be interesting for Greg to pony up the transcript of that testimony.

@DrJohn: Gee, it’s almost like you can’t believe anything they say.

https://saraacarter.com/fbi-docs-reveal-flynn-was-not-lying-or-did-not-think-he-was-lying/?fbclid=IwAR2Xo2eAXA_T5acgaknS6f3P4GK9BEtmkmtA9Q1EZIIA43g_54SxUsqVlx0#.XBRIIgriddY.facebook

FBI Agent Supervisor says all notes should be filed within 5 days of interview; not 7 months. He says the texts between Strzok and the other agent should reveal the facts.

Oops.

Mueller had Strzok’s phone cleansed, Hillary-style. Need Pientka’s phone.

@Deplorable Me: In an executive session of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, McCabe acknowledged “the two people who interviewed [Flynn] didn’t think he was lying.
Assume that the special counsel’s office still has copies of the initial 302s created, which might not be the case given that when Mueller’s “pitbull,” Andrew Weissmann, led the Enron Task Force, his team, among other things, systematically destroyed draft 302s.
The Honorable Judge Sullivan made history a decade ago when he ordered an independent investigation into “the systemic concealment of significant exculpatory evidence,” he discovered during the government’s prosecution of the now-deceased Ted Stevens, then the senior senator from Alaska. The DOJ’s misconduct in the Stevens’ case led Sullivan to enter a standing order in all criminal cases on his docket.
Sullivan likely wants to assure himself that the Flynn case isn’t a copycat of the political targeting of Stevens from a decade ago.

Your bullshit doesn’t work on me. Spread it elsewhere.

Facts and logic don’t seem to work on you. They do, however, carry considerable weight in our nation’s legal system—as will be demonstrated.

@Greg: The conclusion AT THE TIME was he didn’t lie. PERIOD. It took Mueller 7 months to rewrite the “facts” to make it appear he did. PERIOD.

It is taking a while, but Mueller’s scumbaggery is coming forth. I’ve been declaring it for a while.

@Greg: Wheres that transcript? Please Mr Facts they have the wrong judge for DOJ political shenanigans.

Why did Flynn lie to Pence about the meeting?—that started it all.

@Richard Wheeler: It’s wasn’t illegal for Flynn to lie to Pence. Where was that question I was supposed to answer?

@Deplorable Me: Allegations of Repub fraud against Hughes in N.Carolina—probably a re-do in works for last undecided seat–would give Dems 241–asked your thoughts since you are screaming Dem fraud based on what facts?—it was a wupping.pure and simple
Didn’t say Flynn lie to Pence was illegal-though it cost his job–question is why he felt the need to lie to Veep.

@Richard Wheeler: Allegations should be proved. However, in Florida the fraud was revealed by intentionally mishandling ballots, loss of chain of custody, magically appearing ballots, missing ballots and secretly transporting ballots (or trying to). Funny that the big whine in N. Carolina was about the same thing that was done in California.

Who knows why Gen. Flynn told Pence he didn’t speak with the Russian; he hadn’t broken any laws.

Now:

Should Hillary be in jail for perjury?

Should Comey be in jail for perjury?

Should Brennan be in jail for perjury?

Should Holder be in jail for perjury?

Keep in mind, all their statements in conflict with the facts have been documented.

@Deplorable Me: Elynn too stupid to realize he’d be fired for lying to VEEP? What was he hiding?.
All perjury allegations if PROVEN in court of law should be appropriately dealt with

Repubs beaten by 4 million votes–that’s a hell of a lot of unproven fraud? lol
BTW —what happened to DT’S COMMISSION LOOKING FOR 3 MILLION in 2016 believe they found 17 or 18 and disbanded.

@Richard Wheeler:

BTW —what happened to DT’S COMMISSION LOOKING FOR 3 MILLION in 2016 believe they found 17 or 18 and disbanded.

Excellent question. California will not cooperate with the investigation. Any ideas WHY they would refuse to help verify their elections are on the square and illegal immigrants are not voting?

Why was Gen. Flynn being questioned about having legal, proper and appropriate conversations with his foreign counterparts?

All perjury allegations if PROVEN in court of law should be appropriately dealt with

then we agree.

@Deplorable Me: Why? Ask Pence-his questioning of Flynn started the ball rolling. I believe very few illegals vote–hard enough to get legal immigrants to vote–so many Americans don’t even bother—shameful—in some countries citizens are penalized for not voting

Should Trump be incarcerated if he commits perjury?
BTW Did you hear Judge Napolitano, on Fox News, say Trump “committed a felony?”

@Richard Wheeler: I don’t know that Pence asking Gen. Flynn questions got anything started; it’s clear now that until much later the Gen. didn’t think he lied to anyone or had done anything wrong. It had to be MADE to be wrong, for political purposes.

This is why Democrats love early and mail-in voting so much; fraud is easy.

Giving illegal immigrants ID’s and drivers licenses is the first step, and it’s a big one. These are just a few of the stories about voter fraud; does anyone actually think that ALL are detected and caught? Democrats have come right out and said they want illegals to vote.

Even voter ID, as necessary and vital as it is, does not address the entire problem and like every other rule or law, ways to circumvent its effects will be sought. Democrats historically have been at the forefront of voter fraud.

@Deplorable Me: Do you think it even puts a small dent in the 4 million + votes Repubs lost by in 2018 up from the 3 million plus Trump lost by in 16–statistically insignificant.
Illegals got a lot more to worry about than voting—-like food and shelter.

Gonna answer my 2 questions bottom of #75—-and

Was Flynn just stupid or did he have something to hide when he outright lied to Pence about meeting with Russian ambassador. This happened before FBI got involved.

@Richard Wheeler: Again you get the story wrong, Kushner was with Flynn for the actual meetings, how could they not know?
The rift was over phone calls where sanctions were mentioned. Do you really know what went down? [FBI reviewed Flynn’s calls with Russian ambassador but found nothing illicit]
Barry did not want Trump to hire Flynn so had the IC fix him good. Still at it.

Rod Rosenstein WILL NOT ALLOW Gen. Flynn Interrogator Joe Pientka To Testify — Despite His Reported Willingness to Defend Flynn

@kitt: Why did Trump/Pence fire Flynn?
Why did Flynn ADMIT lying to FBI?

@Richard Wheeler: I dont believe Flynn thought he lied to them, neither did the inquisitors. Things seemed to take a change after the SI was assigned, then it was punish the General with legal fees, til he broke.

@kitt: What? He didn’t think he lied to Pence when he told him he had not met with Russian Ambassador?
Ridiculous.—
If he didn’t lie to FBI WHY WOULD HE SAY HE DID?
Absurd

Is this guy an idiot?

@Richard Wheeler:

Was Flynn just stupid or did he have something to hide when he outright lied to Pence about meeting with Russian ambassador. This happened before FBI got involved.

I answered that in #76. I don’t know why he told (or didn’t tell) Pence what he did, but all it did was cost him his job with Trump; it has nothing to do with his persecution since he did nothing wrong in communicating with his Russian counterpart.

Why did Flynn ADMIT lying to FBI?

That’s only been explained about 500 times. He didn’t lie. Those who questioned him say he didn’t lie. Something didn’t match up 100% between the transcripts the agents had and Gen. Flynn’s memory. Mueller jumped on this and bankrupted him for it in an effort to get him to lie about Trump. Mueller and his seditionists are the liars, not Gen. Flynn.

@Richard Wheeler: Were do you get this was over a meeting with the ambassador? It was a PHONE CALLThey were spying and unmasked the general had the transcript of the PHONE CALL. The General was quite busy during that time and did not remember exactly. What went on with Pence I’m not sure exactly but Pence went public with incomplete information and looked the fool.
With the media bru haha Basically, his phone call transcripts were leaked to members of the media(a felony)the General submitted his resignation.

@kitt: “Gen. quite busy and didn’t remember exactly.”
“Pence looked the fool”
Final answers?

Deplorable—-I’ve asked you to answer my 2 questions bottom of #75—Thanks

Does anyone think Marine Generals Kelly or Mattis would be stupid enough to dig a hole like Flynn did?

@Rich Wheeler: Yes those are my best understanding and Trump should have declined the resignation.

@kitt: DT obviously more faithful to Pence than Flynn—Pence has disappeared–waiting for shoe to drop?

Cohen 10 years DT’S friend and fixer–said he’d take a bullet for Trump–repeatedly covered and lied for Trump–

Trump throws pejoratives at him and “Give him the longest sentence possible.” What a friend.

@Richard Wheeler: Could have been the best thing Trump could do for him, considering the insane resistance.

@Richard Wheeler:

DT obviously more faithful to Pence than Flynn—Pence has disappeared–waiting for shoe to drop?

Of course Trump is closer (more faithful) to Pence than the rest of his Cabinet. Why wouldn’t he be? Pence is next in line for the Office of President.

Disappeared? How so? Pence was sitting in the Oval Office, right next to Trump, during the meeting with Nancy (Botox) Piglosi and Chuck (the Schmuck) Schumer.

Cohen 10 years DT’S friend and fixer–said he’d take a bullet for Trump–repeatedly covered and lied for Trump–

But now, of course, you lefties will portray Cohen as a bastion of truth-telling. And exactly what about “Russia!!! Russia!!! Russia!!!” was Cohen charge on?

Trump throws pejoratives at him and “Give him the longest sentence possible.” What a friend.

Good for Trump, or anyone else who thinks that someone who illegally taped his client, and failed to advise his client on the law that the left is claiming Trump has violated, that condones a lengthy sentence when a sleeze lawyer is found guilty of anyting. Lawyers are not above the law. That is, unless your last name is Clinton, Podesta, Comey and every one of the many sleeze bags attached to the Clintons.

@retire05: Absolutely agree no one above the law including POTUS—-many turning including Pecker–publisher of Trump’s favorite fake newspaper The Enquirer and Napolitano who says DT committed felony.
Lost Sec of Interior today–Kelly gone–next could be Mattis.

Pence looked like petrified stone at Oval Office meet—didn’t say one word–his wife wants him out.

@Richard Wheeler: No, I didn’t hear Napolatano say that. What felony?

Under normal circumstances I would say Trump should be held accountable for perjury, if committed. However, in today’s atmosphere, I would insist Hillary, Clapper, Brennan, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Holder Avanetti and Christine Ford be tried for their perjury first, just to confirm it is still a crime. Perjury doesn’t seem to be something folks from both sides and all spectrums are held accountable. Would you agree?

Who says Cohen was Trump’s friend? Who says the Enquirer is his favorite paper? You sure like to extrapolate with facts.

@Richard Wheeler:

Napolitano who says DT committed felony.

What statute?
If you make a request of an attorney it is his job as an officer of the court to do preform that task legally.

@Richard Wheeler:

Absolutely agree no one above the law including POTUS—-

So then you agree that Obama should have been brought up on “high crimes and misdemeanor” charges when he killed to American citizens, on foreign soil no less, with a drone?

many turning including Pecker–publisher of Trump’s favorite fake newspaper The Enquirer

Really? Trump’s fake newspaper? And you have proof of that hidden where Funny how the left will defend a publication that has been sued more times than I can count for false reporting. But then, the home company of the Enquirer is claiming that what they reported constitutes an “in-kind campaign donation.” Basically, it is just a tabloid rag looking for publicity. And you are just too simple minded to realize that, I guess.

and Napolitano who says DT committed felony.

Napolitano has always been a “never Trumper.” I read one of his books. Until I did, I liked him but he is a Libertarian, and I don’t subscribe to the Libertarian platform, at all.

Lost Sec of Interior today–Kelly gone–next could be Mattis.

So what? Do you think those Cabinet positions are not high intensity? Two years of a high intensity job is really draining. You act like those should be career positions.

Pence looked like petrified stone at Oval Office meet—didn’t say one word–his wife wants him out.

It was Trump’s meeting Pence was there at the invite of the President. At least Pence is not senile like Biden. And where do you get Pence’s wife wants him out? From the Enquirer?

And exactly what about “Russia!!! Russia!!! Russia!!!” was Cohen charged on? You failed to answer that.

@retire05: So Pecker publishing a story favorable to Trump is an election contribution, then the “journalists” Glenn Thrush for just 1 example that begged for Hillarys campaign to edit and add ideas to their stories is what?

@retire05:

But then, the home company of the Enquirer is claiming that what they reported constitutes an “in-kind campaign donation.”

Is there a way to charge that the corrupt liberal media NOT reporting stories honestly and supporting the Democrat attacks on Trump 24/7 are contribution to the DNC? Just calculate how much time they spend lying about Trump, Republicans, the economy, trade and immigration along with the time promoting Puto O’Rook, Ocasio-Cortez, Warren, etc etc etc and multiply it by what they charge for advertising.

@Deplorable Me:

If writing a positive story about any candidate constitutes an “in-kind” contribution, there are a lot of publications that Obama and Hillary should have included in their campaign finance reports. Same with writing negative stories about Obama and Hillary’s opponents.

But the press is exempt from that.

And don’t forget Obama received hefty fines for campaign finance irregularities.

Comey brags about pulling a fast one on Flynn just four days after the new administration took over:

https://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/susan-jones/ex-fbi-director-comey-explains-how-he-took-advantage-fledgling-trump

Why isn’t the press taking about how Comey’s corrupt club wiretapped an incoming President’s transition team? i.e. the Flynn phone conversations with others.

Absolutely agree The Enquirer a rag–why else would they support Trump all these years–they hated HRC’
Pecker –great name—and Trump best buddies and now, like Cohen, Pecker has turned on DT—Trump needs more friends like Manafort that he can pardon

Mueller has Trump’s tax returns so we’ll see if Russia, Russia is gonna play.

I really love watching crazy Rudy spin it—what the hell happened to America’s mayor?–looks and acts like a character out of American Gangster. Not any better than Cohen.

Did stress get the last 2 Interior Secs–lol Swampists/ Crooks lasted a few months each.

@Richard Wheeler:

Absolutely agree The Enquirer a rag–why else would they support Trump all these years–they hated HRC’

Don’t know if the Enquirer supported Trump, or not. I don’t read that rag but obviously you do. No surprise. I’m sure you support muckraking.

Pecker –great name—and Trump best buddies and now,

Great buddies? Based on what, pray tell? Pecker is only looking for publicity, nothing less, nothing more. A slug’s gotta leave slime.

like Cohen, Pecker has turned on DT—Trump needs more friends like Manafort that he can pardon

See above.

Mueller has Trump’s tax returns so we’ll see if Russia, Russia is gonna play.

It would be illegal for Mueller to release them. Of course, I doubt if Mueller would do that. Maybe he will leak them to Comey who will leak them to Comey’s professor buddy who will leak them to the NY Slimes. That seems to be the way Democrats roll.

I really love watching crazy Rudy spin it—what the hell happened to America’s mayor?–looks and acts like a character out of American Gangster. Not any better than Cohen.

Would you prefer he acted like Governor Moonbeam?

Did stress get the last 2 Interior Secs–lol Swampists/ Crooks lasted a few months each.

This is how it’s going to be. Rumors, innuendos and out right lies that cause one investigation after another into anyone on Trump’s Cabinet. Death by a thousand cuts. Democrats, and left wingers, are nothing more than slugs who leave slime on everything they touch. Y’all just can’t get over the fact that Trump defeated the most crooked human being that ever ran for POTUS.

Just blame that dam mainstream media for everything If they’d only treat our beloved leader fairly, like The National Enquirer does, we could get on with MAGA

@Richard Wheeler:

Shall we discuss the criminal element of the Obama administration? Holder, Rice, Emanuel and least we forget, Kerry and Clinton?

Or the lies told by Obama “shovel ready jobs; if you like your health care you can keep your health care”?

There are a few (and damn few) journalists who actually report the news. Most subscribe to the Walter School of Journalism. Some, like Jim Acosta, are nothing more that attention whores.

MAGA? Like the lowest unemployment rates in how many decades? Or the lowest unemployment rates among women and minorities? How about consumer confidence? The US finally being a net exporter of oil instead of an importer? Middle class tax cuts? Greater respect for our military? As long as you continue to mimic the left wing press, Wheeler, you will see nothing but bad.

You, with your tacit support of the constant hounding of a sitting president makes you nothing more than a hypocrite. Is that why you wore the uniform of this nation? i.e. LTG Flynn is a good man. He was run into the ground, bankrupted and there were threats to go after his son. He took the easy way out. Not one word of praise from you for the decades he dedicated to this county. You ignore the truth about the Mueller witch hunt. I can only assume your hatred for Trump, and Republicans in general, has cause you mental problems. Anything posted on this site that shows how crooked Democrats are, you simply ignore.
