Yep. It takes a good little trumpkin to downplay trump’s campaign welcoming Russian help, trump’s campaign working with Russian cutouts (trump/Stone coordination with Wikileaks, Manafort giving GOP polling data to Russian businessman), and then trump’s obstruction of the investigation into those events. The REAL story is how trump, Flynn, and the Alfa bank server are the real VICTIMS!!!

I understand you think Flynn was lying when he pled guilty about lying. I doubt anything I say is going to convince you or Trump that Flynn isn’t a victim.

That is how it works. Flynn was, in fact, compromised by Russia. Whether you think it is “likely” isn’t relevant. The presence of a compromised individual as head of the DNI is stupid crazy. It doesn’t matter if tapes of the negotiation existed or whether bank accounts showing Russian transfers existed. It matters that they were hidden from the public at the time and whether Russia could have threatened to release that info to the public and cause Flynn to lose his job/reputation. Flynn was experienced enough to know his poor choices (taking and hiding Russian money and lying about Russian negotiations) would weaken national security but he was ok with being in-debited to Russia. Flynn should have either made better choices or refrained from going back into the intelligence field, much less the DNI.

I’m not sure how any of your questions relate to Flynn being susceptible to Russian blackmail during his time as DNI. Pence fired him and he plead guilty to lies the Russians knew the truth about. The fact he allowed Russia to have him by the short hairs because of this and also the Russian payments he had received that were also hidden, points to a dangerous individual that thankfully the FBI pushed hard enough to get him removed from his position as DNI. This is a great example of the FBI protecting our national security

The argument is that it’s ok for Russia to meddle in our democracy because of “other states” are spending more money doing it? What other states? What money are they spending? What instances of meddling has or is occurring by those other states?

Bernie bros and trumpkins are finding some commonality?

It’s ok when my team breaks the “little” laws!!! Trumpkin can’t help but trumpkin!

It’s ok to not follow the law when it’s my team!!!! Trumpkin cant help but trumpkin!

Yeah. Flynn took money from Russia and Turkey and hid it from the US government. That was not legal. Flynn interfered with Obama’s foreign policy by negotiating with Russia and lied to Pence and the FBI about it. That was not legal. Russia and Turkey would have been able to hold all of those illegal actions over Flynn’s head while he was head of the DNI. Flynn was a clear risk to US national security. He should have known better. Flynn isn’t a victim. He’s another example of those around trump with malfeasance tempered by incompetence.

Funny to watch captain both sides flounder and suck trump’s dick every opportunity. We don’t want a tit for tat!!!!?! The horror!’!!? whatabout the server and the raw intelligence!!?! the real story is that Flynn was soooo mistreated!! Trump and the right are victims!!

I get that trump is on you team and that in your mind along with trump’s mind, it is ok to support and cover for russia’s Involvement in our democracy. All that means is that you are piece of shit like trump and flynn

No dipshit. Whether or not they are helping trump and your side, you shouldn’t defend and downplay an enemy that has been attacking our democracy. Your party over country bullshit is lame

Fuck Russia. They attacked our democracy and are still a threat. It’s sad that Annie, grhorn and trump unite and push the same narrative that Russia is not a threat to democracy and the US. A bunch of treasonous fuck sticks.

That is a rather thorough beatdown of Reade’s allegations and there wasn’t even any mention of her kowtowing to Putin and Russia. Impressive article

Holes Shite!!!?! Can you believe that!!?! mindexploding.gif That is one god damn triggered injustice! You are a damn patriot for keeping focused on the REAL story! Investigate the investigators!!!! Trump and his campaign and Russia have been treated so unfairly!!!

Guys, I’m most TRIGGERED by the idea that raw intelligence was considered in the investigation of Russian election interference and that those invested in protecting our elections from election interference looked into a theory that a server was used somehow. Can you BELIEVE the feds looked into a SERVER!!!? That is the REAL story!! So if we all simultaneously screech our triggered concerns then hopefully we can somehow forget about the Russian troll farms, the Russian hacking of Dems, the trump tower meeting where trump campaign attempted to get Clinton dirt from Russians, trump campaign sending internal polling data to Russian cutouts, the dozen times trump attempted to obstruct the Russian investigation, trump’s campaign manager sent to jail, trump’s advisor sent to jail, and trump's attorney sent to jail. None of that is the REAL story. We should focus our triggered concern on this server theory and raw intelligence that everyone knew was raw intelligence.

I think it’s important to acknowledge the FBI was working within the realm of national security and not just criminal law. Any of Flynn’s misdeeds and poor choices (taking money from Russia and Turkey and hiding those facts, conspiring within a kidnapping plot with Turkey, undermining the Obama admin through discussions with Russia diplomats and lying to the VP about it) could have been held over his head while serving as DNI, putting at risk national security. How the FBI protects national security varies and depends on the context, but it does not solely rely on prosecutions. They affectively got Flynn removed from the DNI position, neutralizing the immediate threat. Prosecuting him for lies to the FBI maintains a degree of deterrence and helps ensure the FBI has the ability to gather information in the future as it works on other national security issues

How much time do you spend on 4chan or reddit in groups that identify as incels?

Once Barr and the DOJ embraced political motivations (barr’s misframing of obstruction, revisions to Stone’s sent recommendations, dropping flynn’s Guilty plea), the taint has inevitably spread to all of their decisions whether justified or not.

Nothing like that would need to happen. Here is brief video from MIT on the concept

Hey man. I’m not the one buying into right wing propaganda and dismissing Mueller because of raw intelligence. I wonder if Mueller paid it no mind simply because it was raw intelligence.

That’s a great point. we should find out from Flynn why he took tens of thousands of dollars from Russia? Why Flynn hid that he was paid from Russia? Why Flynn was paid tens of thousands of dollars from Turkey? Why he hid those payments from Turkey? Why Flynn was conspiring to aid Turkey with kidnapping on US soil? Why he was pushing the US to invest in Middle East nuclear projects during his first week as DNI? Why he lied to the FBI? Why he lied to Pence? There are a lot of unanswered questions.
