    I explained exactly how he could be a risk. I didn't claim that he was tried for any lobbying. I mentioned his track record of behavior and dishonesty related to dealing with foreign nations. I listed the risks that could potentially be exploited to use against him or to compromise him. The fact that he committed crimes and neglected to register involving these governments puts him as a potential risk.

    The fact that he acted illegally with a foreign adversary who had recently tried to sabotage our democratic process means that he was vulnerable to blackmail by that nation. That would be worse if he continued illegal discussions with them.

    Actually you said the plea deal had to do with the kidnapping. I wrote about the kidnapping you the plea was to avoid those charges

    And even this post is is wrong. Do your research. You said the plea including implicating others. What others?

    This has been explained in length multiple times, including in this thread.

    If you dont get it by now, you are either being intentionally dense or you simply dont have the mental capacity to grasp it.

    I dont care what was explained in this thread. There is no reports of him taking a deal to catch bigger fish.

    Dont go to the weak ass im not repeating myself card. In my thread everyone is saying Trump is never formally accused. So if its not Trump who is the bigger fish?

    Just name a name

    But there is no security issue with Hunter's laptop? Mmmmkay. And what do we do with John Kerry who has been meeting w/ Iranian leadership? Should there be the same level of concern or is that ok because it's Biden's 'climate czar'? Also, John Podesta didn't register and didn't get his hand slapped. It's clear that Obama wanted him out as NSA. There's a million reasons why and none are aligned with American interests. And you've got Ben Rhodes announcing to the world that Biden's transition team is in contact with world leaders. Biden hasn't been certified yet. That's definitely Logan Act material but nobody is seeking to bring them up on charges.

    Glad to see him pardoned. It's not like he was a terrorist and got pardoned....ahem.

    Um the Muellet investigation resulted in numerous indictments.

    I'm sure Barr squashed numerous ongoing investigations. We will see what the new non corrupt AG does.

    Goal post shifting. I dont care about numerous indictments. We're talking about Flynn and indictments as a result of his plea bargain

    Lol at goal posts, as you have been sliding all over the place in your posts.

    Regardless, its Impossible to know since that's not public info. Who knows what leads he gave them, in addition to the quoted " ongoing investigations".

    Anyway, back to your original incorrect point, yes a plea deal was given in exchange for cooperation. That point has been proven, and identifying what info was given is not a prerequisite for that being true.

    The plea MAY include. They never had anyone else in their sights that he could implicate

    Again, wrong.

    They would not have entered into that agreement if he did not have useful info.

    Take the L and learn instead of pushing dumb opinions not based on facts.

    What the hell are you talking about? Does Hunter have security clearances? Has been appointed to a position in the Biden administration? Have the dozens of laptop allegations even been verified? Has Hunter pled guilty to lying to the FBI? Has Hunter had to go back and retroactively register as a foreign agent?

    Bringing up Kerry and Podesta without any kinds of similar accusations doesn't help your cause.

    Stop acting like anything you said is even close to the same level as what Flynn did.

    Sadly what you posted has zero to do with the real threat that I spelled out for you.

    ...the whole world looks like a bunch of liars, when you've spent all your time convincing yourself that nobody's telling the truth except you.

    ...or is that supposed to read: "...when you see yourself as a hammer, everything else looks like a nail..."

    ...I always mix up my similes like that...;)
