Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 to one count of making false statements to the FBI during an interview on January 24, 2017, as part of the bureau's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 US election, and whether members of the Trump campaign conspired with Moscow.
"There is no precedent that anybody can find" in which "someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free," Obama said, though he incorrectly stated Flynn had been charged with perjury, when in fact he was charged with and pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI. "So I am hoping that all of you feel the same sense of urgency that I do," Obama said during the call. "Whenever I campaign, I've always said, 'Ah, this is the most important election.' Especially obviously when I was on the ballot, that always feels like it's the most important election."
The move came after Attorney General William Barr — who critics have described as acting more as Trump's personal defense lawyer than as the nation's chief law enforcement officer — tapped an independent prosecutor to review the case against Flynn. that the Trump-appointed prosecutor, Jeff Jensen, recently recommended dropping the case to Barr.
Lol the FBI lied and got caught. Of course he’s mad about it. It put his dishonesty out in the open.
Coz u r exposed?
I think: we have nothing to listen from 'Mr yes-we-can' 😂
Street pamphleteer turned treasonous fascist Obama knows he is implicated in weaponizing govt institutions to attempt a barbaric coup — against the will of the American people.
Well, Obama would say that wouldn’t he, given that he gave the orders for the Russia collusion hoax, setting up Flynn and the FBI’s attempted coup.
A private call i can read about here um ok
Why did you use the word “excoriated”? Why not just say criticize? Are you trying to make people gloss over the headline?
