It's Official, Russians Corrupted The Election

Now you're simply boorish.

Just after the word this morning that Gen. Michael Flynn had cut a deal with special counsel Robert Mueller, InfoWars issued a “Red Alert” warning that the “removal of Trump will trigger a massive civil war.”

So, Trump's BFF and source of inspiration is threatening a civil war if his Dear Leader is impeached?

Uh, no. According to the ABC News story - which has ultimately been retracted and corrected following a laughable media feeding frenzy and rush to judgment - Trump directed Flynn to connect with Russian officials - and other national leaders - about dealing with ISIS.

Actually, dickhead, I quoted what ABC originally reported. They corrected it later. My reading comprehension is far above yours, as your Dear Leader says, "believe me!"

That's what you get, memberless, for investing yourself in the media feeding frenzy and dubious reporting that surrounds this whole affair. You'd be far better off to wait - before rushing to judgment - and wait until the facts come out. What Brian Ross and company did yesterday was nothing new at all. In fact, yesterday's embarrassing escapade - and your willingness to swallow it whole - is emblematic of this entire "Russian collusion" non-story.

President Obama's Defense Secretary said that they probably violated long-standing norms, but not the law.

Leon Panetta, President Obama’s former Secretary of Defense, told NBC’s Chuck Todd on Friday that it was a “stretch” to say the Trump transition team broke the law with their contacts with the Russians.

“We have one administration at a time,” Panetta said, warning that the Trump transition team undermined long-standing political norms in the United States by engaging in diplomacy while the Obama administration was still in office.

However, the former defense secretary doubted that dealings with the Russians rose to the level of criminal violations.

You're citing an incorrect article to refute my true assertion? I suppose that makes sense to you.

Flynn didn't plead guilty to doing something legal, moron. Why did every single person in the Trump administration lie about their contacts with Russians? Were they all conspiring to cover up legal activity?

And you're citing NTK Network, a site run by operatives connected to Republican opposition research firm America Rising?

I'm citing an interview - complete with video - that Panetta did on MSNBC. Of course, if you had bothered to look at it, you might have realized that before your foot in mouth post above.

Finn plead guilty to a process crime. Period. Which means that is the very best that Mueller could do against Flynn. And we also have no idea what his "cooperation" will get for Mueller, your hyperbole about "conspiring" not withstanding.

Yesterday's events didn't occur in a vacuum. Do you honestly believe that the only thing Mueller had on Flynn and his son was a couple instances of Flynn lying and that his guilty plea (and lack of further charges), along with a cooperation agreement, have no bearing on the future of this investigation and Mueller's strategy going forward? Trump is truly fortunate to have gullible Kool-Aid slurpers like you who will support him until the bitter end.

I'm curious what your explanation is for every single member of the Trump campaign (Trump, Pence, Sessions, Kushner, Junior, Flynn, Manafort, Cohen, Page, Papadapolous ...) lying about their interactions with Russia as well as Trump's efforts to compel Comey and Congress to drop their investigations. Is it all fake news?
