why :so we can prosecute him or get him fired, give facts to DOJ & have them decide, document for DOJ, & let them decide how to address it
Breaking the Logan act. Literally read the freaking note ...... Also what happened is Flynn lied to the FBI and the Trump administration about his interactions with a foreign power.
READ THE EFFING MEMO. YOU CAN'T BE THIS DUMB. HERE IS THE MEMO ONE MORE TIME. "What's our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?" reads the note, written by the FBI's then-director of counterintelligence. "If we get him to admit to breaking the Logan Act, give facts to DOJ & have them decide. Or, if he initially lies, then we present him [redacted] & he admits it, document for DOJ, & let them decide how to address it." Pretty much if he tells the truth the DOJ prosecutes for breaking the Logan Act. If he lies he is prosecuted for breaking the Logan Act and lying to the FBI.
Interesting strategy, taking this to the early 1970's, but... I'm not sure for what country. Trump says Obamagate is far worse that "whatever President Water did."
Obamagate doesn't even exist but the Trumpsters love it. They only wish they had thought of it in 2007
someone reminded me of Dana Perino., but maybe we need a hottest press secretaries thread to be sure.
So Flynn basically got Caponed. Law enforcement knew with 98% certainty that he was doing mob like activities that murdered people, but the only way to achieve the threshold of evidence for a conviction, they needed a direct admission so they just went with lesser tax evasion charges because that can be "proven beyond a reasonable doubt" which is the threshold for conviction.
Funny how law loving citizens hate criminals and support “throw the book at them” until it’s their guys.
Well, there are only a handful to choose from... Dee Dee Myers was the first presidential press secretary, followed by Perino, and the three monsters trump has rotated through...
