The Russia-gate prosecutors have taken the scalp of ex- National Security Adviser (and retired Lt. Gen.) Flynn for lying to the FBI. But this case shows how dangerously far afield this 'scandal' has gone...
After cancelling a press briefing Friday afternoon following Gen. Flynn’s decision to plead guilty to lying to the FBI during Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians, President Trump has spoken out about the situation for the first time.
“No, I’m not” worried about what Michael Flynn will tell investigators Trump told reporters. “What has been shown is no collusion. There’s been absolutely no collusion so we’re very happy.”

Back on June 29, 2016, Obama's Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, tried to convince us that the following 'impromptu' meeting between herself and Bill Clinton at the Phoenix airport, a private meeting which lasted 30 minutes on Lynch's private plane, was mostly a "social meeting" in which Bill talked about his grandchildren and golf game. It was not, under any circumstances, related to the statement that former FBI Director James Comey made just 6 days later clearing Hillary Clinton of any alleged crimes related to his agency's investigation.
