    Seriously? They are certainly grounds for an independent investigation more than ever before. The FBI is likely being hampered by the WH.....you should be concerned or maybe you are still in denial because you have been duped.

    Hysteria may be contagious in liberal circles, but I'm not so afflicted. 4 seperate investigations are already underway. I'm certain any impropriety on the part of Flynn will be thoroughly examined, and properly addressed. I could provide you a link that illustrates (A) executive privilege isn't uncommon (B) there are mechanisms through which pertinent information can be obtained. Do you need that information? See post #77, links provided.

    Trump's worst nightmares are slowly coming true, Russia lifted him across the finish line. Only question now is how much did he know about it and was he complicit. Trump might be Flynnished.

    What a wonderful fantasy. Russians won the election. Trump colluded. Wiki unmasked the DNC. Wiki released the NSA cyber weapons capable of disguising hackers as Russians. Indisputable. Everywhere Russian election interference is alleged, Obamas NSA is there ... not coincidence.

    Tell it to the FBI counter intelligence criminal investigation into coordination with Trump campaign & associates. No one disputes that Russia influenced the 2016 election to help Trump win only Trump supporters.

    I don't know if there are people privy to classified intel and are working as foreign agents. There's a reason those working for foreign governments are required to register with our government, and those applying for security clearances are required to report any foreign contacts. I do know that Flynn accepting payment from a foreign government, after having served as an officer in our military was a felony. Do you have any verification of your suggestion that others with access to classified information can lobby or do business with foreign governments?

    IMO, Flynn disgraced himself and Trump should have fired him much sooner than he did. Leaving Flynn in place for as long as he did put America in jeopardy and made Trump look complicit.

    The New York Times risked legal trouble to publish Donald Trump’s tax return”, By Callum Borchers, The Washington Post, October 2, 2016.
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-trouble-to-publish-donald-trumps-tax-return/

    So, now that Trump is in the White House who is running the IRS? And has anyone at the NYT been indicted? ;-)

    What we sure as heck do know is that Flynn fits that description. What we need to find out is if there are more people in the WH like him.

    You mean Secretary Clinton, her State Dept. colleagues, and campaign staff, all working for CGI, soliciting "donations" in excess of $100 million, doesn't qualify? A fmr. POTUS & SOS privy?

    This thread is about Flynn being under criminal investigation and that Trump could be Flynnished. Let's get to the bottom of it and stop deflecting.

    No. Assange hasn't either. Whisleblowers have protections. Fmr IRS head pleads 5th. Typical.

    Might make a note, that I gave a specific response to a specific question, posed by an actual PF MOD. I'll also remind you that the CGI investigation is ongoing.

    Did the CGI accept money from Russia while Russia was attempting to influence our election? Does the CGI act as a foreign agent for another country? Did anyone in the CGI have to register with the US government as a foreign agent? For what other countries' governments does the CGI act as an agent? If the CGI doesn't require being registered as a foreign agent, or act on the behalf of other countries' governments, the two situations do not compare.

    The situation is not just about Flynn accepting money from foreign countries, which is illegal for him as a former military officer. It's about him acting as an agent for a foreign country WHILE acting as the National Security Advisor for the US… and Trump knew about it.

    The New York Times has become a dog whistle for the alt-pink/brown.

    The left violates laws like it's going out of style but will attack with extreme prejudice if it's not their party. He may have violated the law is a conviction in their eyes but sanctuary cities openly violating the laws, or top secret leaks to harm Trump, payoffs to terrorist nations, not a problem.

    If he is found to have broken the law, he should be held accountable. My concern is, the left only care about the right breaking laws. How about Barry breaking the laws? Hillary?

    Answer the question with a question or the one you want to answer, not the question asked. You have the liberal playbook down. I don't play lib games.

    Stay on topic......Flynn's criminal investigation and the FBI doing the job of true patriots. You are try to make this about me and the past admin, your game. Flynn sure looks like he is not a true patriot.

    Wrong. I addressed your comment and agreed, IF he violated the law, he should be held accountable. How about holding your party to the same standard?
