Immunity.
A forgotten detail it seems.

So NOW immunity means guilt?

Indeed sir. One of many in this era of alternative facts....

a reply to: JinMI

No, I wouldn't say it means guilty at all. But it sure as heck doesn't imply innocent as the driven snow, now does it?

a reply to: shooterbrody

Name calling..nice...
What was that about resorting to that when what you say has no value? Oh yeah...

a reply to: shooterbrody

Um, well, I think that's because they fired him prior to warning the new administration not to hire him....

a reply to: Gandalf77

No, it certainly doesn't mean guilt....yet. It also indicates that there are bigger fish to be had.

I was replying to the political hack who likes to blur the truth and change stances on arguments based upon their political affiliation.

We could all move past the politics at this point and get to some real issues. Like unmasking perhaps?

a reply to: Gandalf77

Thank you sir.
Much appreciated.
But you know I'm a senior so.... oh and female .

And the leaks are important but not the focus of this investigation.
I think that trump can get any of that information if he asked for it. Or at least who was privy to flynns unmasking. That would be a start. I wonder if he has?

a reply to: JinMI

The bigger fish to fry part is intriguing. If that's indeed the case. If there's evidence to bring charges against Flynn alone, then perhaps that's what we'll see. If, however, there are bigger fish to fry, then whoever's doing the frying will be quite tempted by the immunity deal.

Unmasking is an interesting issue as well.
It seems to be confused with warrantless wiretapping quite a bit on these boards...

a reply to: shooterbrody

Who's the 2bit left over hack?

Marginalizing her credentials doesn't take them away from her.
Isn't that more of that name calling that gets used when the speakers words have no value? Isn't that what you said.
And then proceed to name call.
Lordy lordy

Shoot! My apologies. Didn't mean to be presumptuous.

I have no doubt that Trump is after that very information.
I believe that Yates indicated yesterday that the information she'd reviewed that involved unmasking always came to her "already unmasked" by whatever alphabet agency first looked at it.

a reply to: JinMI

Oh well if you listen to Mike Flynn it does. Lol
Guess we'd have to ask him what it means.

a reply to: shooterbrody

Oh boy. Oh man shaking my head. Obama fired him in 2014 dude.
The lying about Russian contact happened in January.


This year...

a reply to: shooterbrody

That wasn't a lie. I proved it wasn't a lie . I just didn't know how to spell the word. Big flipping deal.
The mistakes you've made make me look like Einstein.

a reply to: Gandalf77

It sounded like they were fishing for that info yesterday.
Who did the unmasking and who in the loop knew it.
Yates, if she had the info didn't reveal it yesterday.
I'm sure the question would have been asked of Susan Rice if she agreed to appear.
She may yet.
I don't see how trump can't just Ask for it.

a reply to: Sillyolme

Yeah, they're going to keep pushing hard on that angle.

Yates knew exactly what she could and couldn't say.

I think the dems on the committee wisely knew the republicans would use Rice to further distract from Yates' testimony.

There have been a couple of efforts to keep Yates from telling her story--the parts of it she can tell, anyway.

and comey just got fired

Breaking trump just fired James comey

News says that trump has fired FBI director James Comey

What a surprise.
Fire the guy leading g up an investigation on you.
Hey didn't Nixon try something like this?

LOL!!! And le tme guess his firing has a condition to it that gives him a gag order in exchange for compensation.

a reply to: Sillyolme

Wow...
This is big, but somehow not shocking....
Hopefully there's a nice paper trail.
