    Most people I know are screaming about what's going to happen "by 2027!!!"

    Good lord. There will be at least one and maybe two administrations re-doing things before then.

    Because that's what they do. It's why Nick Saban said "I am not going to be the coach at Alabama." There was no fucking reason to lie, as he was at the podium in Tuscaloosa two days later. But he did. Why?

    Also because it is absurd that you would accept, "President Putin and I had a great meeting in which we discussed various ways to improve relations between our countries" from candidate Trump and simply let it go at that. So no matter what he does --- tell the truth or lie his ass off as usual --- the reaction is going to be the same.

    Hah. No, man, I meant that particular sentence.

    That's what I mean, though. Like literally what I have to do is the other side says, "Well what about this case?" And I have to explain why it's different.

    If Flynn participated in a conspiracy to “collude” with Russia, prosecutors likely would have required him to plead to that.

    He’s not going to be able to testify about a conspiracy he didn’t participate in, without it hurting the prosecution’s case.

    There is a sentence in the plea agreement about how not all the information related to the crime has been disclosed by the prosecution. Seems a bit like foreshadowing to me.

    What’s there to “do”.

    Trump hasn’t testified under oath, and likely can’t be tried for obstruction.

    Anyone who did perjur themselves, when their was no underl crime, or attempted to obstruct an inquiry into something that didn’t happen is an idiot, but I continue to see no evidence of some sort of criminal conspiracy with Russia.
