Flynn to testify Trump 'directed him to make contact with the Russians': report

Flynn is a total moron
Lying to the FBI is real bad
but
You set yourself up to be blackmailed because the Russians know you are lying to the FBI
sheesh

Silver lining: if Trump also ordered him to lie to the FBI, that's game, set and match and the Mango Mussolini has to be impeached and removed.

The connection to Russia appears to be Flynn working to remove sanctions against the Russians during the campaign. Who else knows what may be leaned as this progresses.

So, Flynn was caught lying about his contacts with Russians.

After the campaign, during the transition from what I see now.

This is it? Really?

"ABC said later in an updated report that Flynn will say Trump asked him to make contact with Russia "as a way to work together to fight ISIS in Syria."

Where's the collusion about the election.
Fighting Isis? I would hope they DID
contact Russia about it, why wouldn't
they. What a big nothing burger, how
many millions did this stink pile cost
us in fees.

ROTFL
Flynn lied over a nothing burger?
Wow
Flynn is even stupider then I thought

I'm seeing story after story now, and none
of them are about collusion. They're all
about these tired old calls Flynn made
to the Russians about Isis, that was
covered to death last Jan by the Wash Post.

FBI Reviewed Flynn’s Calls With Russian Ambassador But Found Nothing Illicit

"The FBI in late December reviewed intercepts of communications between the Russian ambassador to the United States and retired Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn — national security adviser to then-President-elect Trump — but has not found any evidence of wrongdoing or illicit ties to the Russian government, U.S. officials said."

So this is all about Flynn lying about it?
What a numbskull.

I'm seeing story after story about how Flynn is cooperating with the Special Counsel. There are tons of things Mueller could have charged Flynn with. The fact they went with "lying to the FBI" shows Flynn got a good deal and is going to spill the beans on the bigger fish.
