Deranged Rhino

That statement alone shows your complete ignorance of what this has always been about. It was an attempted coup. Led by the CIA and the outgoing administration, designed to overthrow a legally elected president because they disagreed with whom the American people voted for. They worked to SUBVERT our republic and democracy, not support it. And to do so, they made up a story about Russians doing what they themselves actually did. They lied to you for three + years. That is undeniable at this point. Yet you're still denying it. Ask yourself why.

Now you're just being purposefully stupid. He asked to refrain from escalating EXPULSIONS not sanctions. And he asked not to escalate expulsions to preserve the Moscow Embassy's functionality so that the US and Russia could continue to work together to fight ISIS in the ME which was an Obama policy at that moment. You're wrong. You're trying to spin and redefine the truth because your cognitive dissonance is hurting your brain. You've been lied to for so long on this matter that you're now refusing to see the truth when it's right in front of you. Do better.

You gave the link (which I already linked by the way) only after you claimed that your statement was absolute truth -- when it wasn't. It was spin and weak spin at that. ******************

Not what I said. But you're being dishonest again because you just got caught with your pants down parroting someone else's incorrect thought as your own. None. I got it from reading the transcripts in full, and the Mueller report, and all of the Flynn filings over the past three years. Unlike you, I don't outsource my thinking to people who lied to me knowingly and intentionally for the past three years on just this subject. And yet, here you were, posting an incomplete clip without proper context and drawing a completely false and unrealistic conclusion from it. It's not a different topic. It's THE ENTIRE POINT. For three years you were told (as we all were) that Flynn cut a deal with the Russians to remove sanctions. We know now that was false. It was never real. It did not happen. Yet the media, and the Obama Administration used this lie to smear a war hero who spent 33 years serving his country -- not because he was working with Russia, but because they viewed him as a threat to their politics. That should disgust you regardless of your partisan leanings. You're wrong. Again. Because you're trying to spin rather than understand how you were lied to. INCOMING administrations talk to foreign leaders all the time. Because their policies are about to become the policy. There is nothing in the law that requires new administrations to hold to the outgoing administration's policies. None. You're wrong.

You are wrong. All the way. The discussion you clipped -- and are too intellectually dishonest to post in full -- was talking about expulsions not sanctions. And Flynn didn't downplay or say he'd remove Obama's expulsions, in fact the opposite. He told Kislyak that he knew the Russians had to respond, but asked they do so in a reciprocal manner. 44 (needlessly) threw out 35 "diplomats" (spies) -- and as Flynn states in the parts you're ignoring, if Russia were to go further than Obama did (meaning more than 35 expulsions), it would cripple the Moscow embassy and make any future coordination between Russia and the US in the ME (which they were partnered fighting ISIS at the time -- per OBAMA'S foreign policy) impossible. So Flynn was not undermining any US policy. He was asking the largest nuclear threat on the planet NOT TO ESCALATE the matters by overreacting. That's not only legal, it's his job as INCOMING NSC chief. So you're wrong. Say you're sorry and educate yourself.

Wrong. It's not though. If it were, you'd post the full statement, not a clip without context. Try again...

Question -- what specifically is Flynn discussing there? Do you know? Or are you just following the talking points from deeply stupid people who have lied to you for three years?

The dossier was never supposed to be published -- but it was, and that's when the wheels started falling off. Then the text messages between Strzok and Page were never supposed to be released -- but they were. Same with Flynn's transcripts with Kislyak... Each and every piece of transparency and exposure has gone against the original narrative. A narrative Chuck promoted breathlessly for three years. ***** Chuck and every single person, congressman, leader, spox, and media personality who pushed this lie on the public. There's no running from it now.

No Chance Joe

But Twitter doesn't fact check the Mullahs... Shh. Nothing to see here.

It's like the White House protesters. Storming the grounds of the White House has very different consequences/rules of engagement than it does storming even a police HQ. But that's what the agitators want -- they want to convince people to do something so monumentally stupid, it forces a tragic reaction from the USSS.

It's not about race. It's about right vs wrong. Good vs evil. And there is evil among us. But there's also plenty of good.
