    False, the crime occurred before Mueller was appointed to anything. The crime existed before Mueller was appointed special counsel.

    All that was said, is that the report would be released before the holidays. That could mean any day between now and Christmas, any day of the week.

    Furthermore... if you or anyone else thinks that the impact of this particular news story would be blunted or diminished simply because it was released immediately prior to a holiday weekend, you are truly naive and obviously think you understand things that you really have no clue about.

    The release of the Mueller report is going to be seismic in the attention it's going to attract, regardless of which day it hits the news.

    He could release it on Christmas day and the media would still be all over it.

    You fucking retard.
    Oh, the media will definitely be all over it lol.

    Here’s the well established pattern: Mullet releases something. The media hyperventilates in unison that Trump has, finally, met his demise. Liberal pundits will fantasize about Trump being frog-marched out of the WH etc.

    That will go on for a few days. Then, the air slowly leaks out of the ballon once people [well, maybe not everyone lol] start to realize it’s kind of a Nothing Burger after all.

    Though this time could be different since this is Mullets last gasp.

    Comey testified that the agents questioning Flynn didn’t think he was lying.

    Was Comey lying to Congress? Is Mullet lying about Flynn lying? How can we get to the bottom of this?

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Flynn pled guilty to the lie, as a matter of LAW he committed the crime.

    4, what am i missing?
    It was a meeting Junior not only accepted, but was eager and excited about it

    It was Junior who dismissed the meeting as merely discussion of the Maginsky act, and Junior has already been caught flat out lying twice already regarding the meeting, so why would anyone believe his version?

    Similarly, it was the Trump people who said they walked out, and as noted above, they aren't the most honest group by reputation

    What you are missing is the fact that you nor I have any idea of what went down at that meeting, but we all have seen numerous right wing innuendos and conspiracies start with much less circumstantial evidence

    Why, didn't Flynn plead guilty?

    "Comey testified that “the agents … discerned no physical indications of deception. They didn’t see any change in posture, in tone, in inflection, in eye contact. They saw nothing that indicated to them that he knew he was lying to them.”

    "McCabe also then confirmed this to the Intelligence Committee, according to the report, but added that they’d found Flynn’s statements were “inconsistent” with what they had understood to be his conversations with Kislyak."

    "Despite the agents' initial impressions, McCabe reportedly testified that officials found that Flynn’s statements to investigators were “inconsistent” with their “understanding of the conversation that he had actually had with the ambassador.”

    Personally, he would not do that without having something on Trump.

    Could it possibly be.... that the FBI did not know the facts. They interviewed Flynn, assumes he was telling the truth.... then discovered later that he had been dishonest?

    That is something I don't understand, we all know both the Star Investigation and GOP Congressional Investigations under Obama went on for years, and yet now conservatives are showing impatience with Mueller who hasn't been at it two full years yet

    And Mueller has produced four guilty pleas and over thirty indictments, while the previous mentioned investigations did neither, so why now the hurry?

    The agents didn’t think Flynn wifilly lied to investigators—which makes it ‘not a lie’, since lying requires intent. It’s more accurate to say Flynn misspoke or gave an inconsistent statement. Honest people do that sort of thing every day.

    McCabe has his own ‘lack of candor issues’ so I’m not sure what his opinion is worth.

    Keep in mind the Obama/Clinton-drone, Sally Yates, sent the agents to talk to Flynn under suspicion of violating the 200 year old and never enforced Logan Act. Sounds like someone was kind of desperate to interview Flynn.

    At any rate, another Mullet dud is Papadopoulos: Papa’s crime wouldn’t exist except for the existence of Mullet’s investigation.

    No, as I documented up above, "Comey testified that “the agents … discerned no physical indications of deception. They didn’t see any change in posture, in tone, in inflection, in eye contact. They saw nothing that indicated to them that he knew he was lying to them.”

    That is a far cry from the way the conspiracy happy conservative put it, that ""Comey said the agents who interviewed Flynn didn’t think he was lying"

    I did not agree at all with the Starr investigation nor 99% of the taxpayer paid for "investigations" by Congress. They are all political, they cost a fortune, they usually result in nothing and they waste the time of the people we send to Congress to get shit done. If anyone actually did something worthy of being investigated, it would be short. There would be definitive proof. Not just trying cobble a bunch of bullshit together to see if it might stick.

    Right and you never complained even once at the Benghazi "investigation" that went on for at least 4 years.
