http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-michael-flynn-charged-20171201-story.html Former national security adviser Michael Flynn is scheduled to plead guilty to making false statements to the FBI. A plea hearing is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. EST. The Justice Department announced Friday that the hearing will take place before U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras at a D.C. federal courthouse. Court documents released Friday show Flynn has been charged with a single count of "willfully and knowingly" making false statements to the FBI on Jan. 24. |

Only one measly little old count of lying to investigators, for repeatedly lying? Flynn likely made a deal to save himself and Jr. - because he got off easy, so far. Rudy Contreras is of Cuban descent, born in NY, 1962, which should be enough to cause a Twitter storm from Trump this weekend - maybe even later tonight. Looks like dark days ahead for the party of crooks, liars, Commie's and thieves. |

If he's pleading guilty, there was a deal struck. You can count on that. |

Day late and a dollar short. Worry not, CNN will hammer this story away as if comparable to the Watergate or Lewinsky scandal. |

what would he tell them? that Trump made him lie to the FBI?? lmfao seems a lot of right wingers are getting charged with absolutely nothing to do with collusion.. so where is the collusion? Mueller still has nothing.. Mueller will have to step down soon.. for he is an accomplice to the Uranium one scandal.. and will also be a suspect himself in that case.. lmao |

I do hope that everyone understands that if Flynn's lawyer is letting him plead guilty to lying to the FBI, that a plea deal was undoubtedly struck. Lawyers aren't paid to allow their clients to plead guilty to the most serious charges against them. They're paid to either have their client plead innocent, in order to make the state do its job proving the charges, or forge a plead deal where the client pleads guilty to lesser charges. If Flynn is pleading guilty it is because Robert Mueller offered him a deal. And that probably means that Robert Mueller got something in exchange for allowing Flynn to plead out.

Mueller got nothing.. for there was nothing but a fake Dossier that Killary made up to begin with.. the only one's colluding was Killary, Podesta and Dems.. but Flynn most likely cut a deal to keep his son free from any charges.. by admitting to lying to the FBI.. still no collusion with Trump.. if there was Mueller would have leaked it to WAPO by now.. as crooked as Mueller is.. lmao |

In this kind of situation, particularly with as much information already out there showing that Flynn was guilty of all sorts of things involving acting as a foreign agent without having declared himself as such, it is likely that Mueller got enough out of Flynn to feel confident he can prosecute at least one more person. Otherwise, there was no point to cutting a deal. |

This plea is the opening number in what will be a year-long opera of crimes, lies and betrayal of the American pea pull. Throughout this long and sordid process, Trump's dupes will keep up their steady beat of denial, counter-accusations and further lies about Hillary etc. We are used to this. It has been significant when the Russians were calling the shots. Now that the low-information crackers are out there pretty much on their own, the effect will be merely pathetic and disgusting. When Trump goes, they will be dumbfounded and 1% of them are at risk of grabbing their guns and going out in search of what their leaders describe as "a Second Amendment remedy." |

And Trump may never be found to have done anything illegal, that is entirely possible. But there is at least one more domino in this chain, of that I am reasonably certain. |

Lead Prosecutor Brandon Van Grack said in court that "a very senior member of the transition team directed" that traitor Mike Flynn to contact Kislyak - and I'll bet his last name is spelled P-E-N-C-E. No wonder little Mikey's hired a battery of lawyers, he's going to need them. |

This has zero to do with "the campaign" and everything to do with "he lied to the FBI". He could have said "Saturday" when "Friday" was the correct answer. Result: "He lied to the FBI". Where does collusion and/or Trump come into this?
