    And since ole Joe Bite_me does not know who he is, where he is or what he's running for half the times, he has plausible deniability. Your side has won again! :applause:

    The thinking Left has always known that the secret police/spy agencies are criminal organizations, that have never been very good at conducting investigations or gathering useful intelligence.
    Surely you know that. Read carefully:

    "The FBI worked to create violent confrontations between factions on the radical left. The bureau was prepared in this case to commit violent acts itself. In New York, agents set cars on fire with "Molotov cocktails," making it appear that one faction was attacking another. FBI agents conducted at least five such bombings in 1973 and 1974." The Lawless State, The Crimes of the U.S. Intelligence Agencies, Morton H. Halperin, Jerry J. Bermin, Robert L. Borosage, and Christine M. Marwick, Penguin Books, NY, 1977. p. 125.

    Which had what?

    Nothing to do with Trump or any member of the campaign.

    Get over it! Take the loss and move on. Jeez! Do you have a YouTube channel; where you prove that Trump conspired with THE RUSSIANS?

    OK. If I was to accept that he negotiated; what was negotiated?

    There is a difference. Flynn's pleas of guilty were made under oath.

    As for getting paid........not in any normal situation, but if you are the incoming NSA to POTUS, no, you cannot do that especially when you do not have the required registration.

    What you're saying is that if you are put in a no win situation, tough. You're just another Count of Monte Cristo.

    Where have you been? Somewhere, not paying attention?

    The no-win situation is: Confess to something that you didn't do, or we will destroy your son.

    What would you do? Sell your son down the river?

    Please, just stop supporting and defending the totalitarians. They won't care about you, when it's your turn to be persecuted.

    Except Flynn, under oath, swore his plea was totally voluntary. The Judge gave him every chance to say, if it was true, that his plea was coerced (in any way which includes) because the DOJ had threatened his Son. That would have had everyone crawling all over it, and his Son would have thus been safe.

    Denial noted.

    So yeah, he would really say that he pleaded guilty to protect his son from persecution. Thus, opening up the persecution of his son.

    Do you understand how coercing works? Why would Flynn think his son safe from the government when it was the government doing the threatening?

    What denial? My point is this....if Flynn had said under oath in open Court that he was under coercion because of a Threat from the DOJ to his Son, do you NOT expect that would have led to very dramatic, sensational public outrage and anti DOJ activity including by the Judge?

    Of course I know how it works. Been there a zillion times professionally and I was never afraid to call it out in open and make very public accusations. All Flynn had to do was expose the coercion under oath in Court and all Hell would have broken loose for the DOJ and Government. Do you not understand how public outrage works?

    Under oath, in open Court from his own lips? Please give me a link to that.

    are you saying that law enforcement agencies with great power such as the secret police are criminal ?

    that is a very dangerous allegation.

    Aren't they staffed with humans who can be ordered, coerced, bought or simply do wrong things for ideological purposes?

    when individual jews criticised the stasi bad things happened

    his criticism of the secret police appears to be a dangerous allegation, because he called them criminals in public.
