Flynn just rolled

[Recursion]

Take that or leave it as you wish, but I have that on good authority, from North of the River.

Things are about to get really interesting.

[pkdu]

1. Hear that sound?....

Thats the sound of the 20 most expensive lawyers in DC , all being called at the same time.

[Recursion]

5. Yup. This is going to hit really, really hard

Friday afternoon was the smart time for him to do it, in that sense.

[Leghorn21]

11. Hey - is this why Comey was at the WH Friday pm?

Oh shit that was YESTERDAY!!!

"The First 100 Years" - no lie!!!!

[RDANGELO]

7. Maybe that's what Trump was doing at the golf course today.

Talking to his lawyers.

[Crash2Parties]

46. Begging the Russian billionare to come pick him up in his plane...

[nycbos]

10. Apparently those 20 most expensive lawyers...

Last edited Sat Mar 25, 2017, 06:49 PM - Edit history (1)

... aren't representing Mr. Stone or Mr. Manafort. They volunteered to testify before the committee. Those expensive lawyers that you mention would probably tell a client in this situation to keep their traps shut.

[Horse with no Name]

38. My guess on that

They are going to lie. They will be discredited as witnesses and their testimony will be useless when we get to the trials. They would rather get perjury charges than treason.

[Drahthaardogs]

61. Or they are getting immunity

And don't need a lawyer

[Horse with no Name]

63. You need a lawyer when you get immunity also

There are always conditions attached to it.

[GopherGal]

47. Those 20 expensive lawyers...

are probably closeted with their clients strategizing for immunity deals in exchange for testimony

[sunonmars]

2. I guess Trump thought he could hang Flynn out to dry and Flynn would lap it up

Wanna bet Flynn has not heard from Trump since the day he resigned other than threats from heavies.

Thats what happens with Trump, he has no friends, he has no loyalty, Flynn is but a bug to him.

[unblock]

6. Exactly. He cons his suppliers and investors and city officials then burns them.

Not a good way to build friendships.

[Stuart G]

18. Threats from.."heavies"..sure...

Now pray tell.....

Somewhere it has been said that Bannon tried to threaten the Freedom caucus ..something about the voting for the replacement of the ACA.....that didn't exactly work...more..

[tomp]

40. hope flynn is secure somewhere.

putin won't want him talking.

[LenaBaby61]

57. Hope Flynn is secure somewhere...

I heard that, or it'll be 10 DEAD ruskies and 1 DEAD, rotten to the core Yank.

Why not just "LOCK HIM UP" for his own protection?

[KewlKat]

50. Maybe the Con's check bounced?

[Wellstone ruled]

3. Is this why Donnie Dipstick stayed in town.

Here them foot steps behind you Donnie,it's the truth squad my friend.

[Alice11111]

12. ...and not even the usual pretense by his wife this weekend

I bet he doesn't even know Barron's fav color, best friend, fav or most disliked subject. Probably, he doesn't know that about Melania either.

Melania, divorce him now, while he still has some money you can get, and he won't want a brutal fight and his tax returns coming out. Fuck the prenup. You have leverage now.

[Wellstone ruled]

14. Arm Candy Marriage me thinks.

One only wonders with this dysfunctional family. Stockholm syndrome?

[Alice11111]

16. Of course, for him, candy. For her, security, escape, money.

I'm certain that she is revolted by the prospect of sleeping w him. Plus, the first daughter thing...and she looks so miserable...but she smiles for the photo opps

[Wellstone ruled]

22. Wonder how many pages in their Pre-Nupt.

Probably a non compete clause thrown in for good measure.

[Alice11111]

29. I've negotiated a lot of prenups in a breakup. When the

Gas tank is exploding, everyone just wants to shut it down. Whatever it takes. I bet it could be found somewhere on the Internet, but authentication would be a problem. They have to be reasonably fair. They can't limit alimomy or child support. I've heard $1 to 7 million, but who knows. $1million for him, is unfair now. If she sticks around until he crashes, she might be lucky to even get that.

[Wellstone ruled]

32. That lump sum seems plausable

like his first two. Trump's Crime Family is about to come to a ending once his Taxes and real finances come to light. Remember a statement made by someone from the IRS,saying Trumps Taxes are audited every year because of his so called deductible claims of which are out of bounds.

[Alice11111]

34. Yeah, it is an American Crime Family Dynasty

Well said.

[TexasBushwhacker]

65. Marla signed a prenup for $2 Million in 1993

But that was when he pretty much at his nadir financially. Who knows how much alimony and child support she got.

[womanofthehills]

51. When Trump was on the Howard Stern show

He said he told Melania to just not expect him to do anything with his child - like play baseball or take the kid places.

[Alice11111]

66. So he LET her have the baby, but told her he wanted no part

In it. Great role model for his other sons. Great family role model for America...compare Pres Obama.

[Ilsa]

45. I'm surprised he didn't kidnap Ivanka and hightail it to Moscow. nt

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. Patriots will be glad to hear we are about to get to truth.

[Leghorn21]

8. Dahlink!! Is he "rolling" or "singing"?? Is he "snitching" or "ratting"?? HA HA HAAAA! Like I care!

Recursion, I'll take you at your word here, and thank you kindly for posting,

[eleny]

13. Shake, rattle and roll - snitch & rat

All part of the same tune these days.

[Leghorn21]

15. Hate to be obvious, eleny, but dis my favorite new tune!!! Hot damn! Hmmm... Hey, for some reason,

the golden oldie "Twist and Shout" is springing to mind!!

[eleny]

21. I hope there will be lots of twisting and big shouting to come

And maybe a long Stroll to jail?

[Leghorn21]

31. D'oh! "Stroll" - copy dat!! But I must say, eleny...I spent a couple days in jail in my youth,

right? And so what I need is for every single traitor here is to Stroll to

PRISON

[Sedona]

9. There better be a polygraph involved

Nt

[northoftheborder]

17. Would the originator of this thread please detail what you are talking about?

Sounds fascinating, but please..........

[Stuart G]

23. What it means..is that Flynn is spilling the truth about Trump and what he (Flynn) did for him..

Flynn if I recall ..was the go between ..between Trump and the Russians.....not nice...oh..kinda like treason...
If he spills what many think is the truth..then Trump could end up in ...jail or impeached...

[cwydro]

19. My goodness! All this inside info on DU today!

[Sculpin Beauregard]

20. I can't wait for the piggies to squeal.

[Kingofalldems]

24. I wonder if Nunes found out and then raced to the White House.

[MelissaB]

26. That's exactly what I thought!

[MelissaB]

25. Check this out...

Flynn is called a "turncoat" from that Enquirer article:

Link to tweet

/photo/1

[Kingofalldems]

28. If it comes from the Enquirer it's coming from Trump.

[WePurrsevere]

33. Since when has...

that sensationalistic, and now turned Trump propaganda, rag/tabloid been taken seriously as a reliable news source by anyone with functional brain? It's certainly not an unbiased one since Trump is apparently BFFs with the owner.

Ugh...

[Bernardo de La Paz]

39. Nat. Enquirer thinks they can make Flynn into a patsy, a fall-guy. Won't be that easy.

"how he colluded with Russian officials" ... their attempt to pin it all on Flynn.

#TrumpRussia has got to the point where even the abjectly slavish tRump-licking National Enquirer is starting to take some conjectures as given facts; for one that there was actual collusion.

[GopherGal]

49. Good thing the "extreme vetting" worked

Quote from "an administration source" in the article:
"Trump was lucky to root him out when he did."

Yeah, that's exactly how that happened...

[enid602]

27. Flynn

I want to know why Flynn, after registering as a foreign agent after the fact disclosed that he gave $28K to NY FBI Agent McCaulley just a bit before McCaulley raided Houma Abedin's devices without a search warrant. That's probably a lot of scratch for an agent.

[Blue_Roses]

64. What?

I've missed this somehow. Link?
Good grief, can't turn your back for a second...

[Freethinker65]

30. Hope he has secured multiple copies of hard evidence.

To back up what he says he remembers

[geek tragedy]

35. Fox News has turned on him, as has the National Enquirer.

Seems some very rough sledding ahead.

[kentuck]

36. I think this week is going to be very interesting.

When one rolls, they will all start shaking..

[zentrum]

37. Is this when he...

..falls out of a 4th story window or has a heart attack without any sign of heart disease?

How are they protecting him and his family?

[jalan48]

41. How do we know he's not going to be a Scooter Libby and fall on his sword for Trump?

Afterwards he gets pardoned. We've seen it before.

[OldRedneck]

43. What was that about . . .

. . . rats and sinking ships???

[ananda]

44. From Joy Reid earlier re Abramson's tweet

48. Question?

Who is 4th in line to be president if Pence and Ryan are implicated, who is next up?

[mnhtnbb]

52. Orrin Hatch as President pro tempore of the Senate

Here's the line of succession

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_line_of_succession

[Alice11111]

67. Thank you

I had thought McTurtle was next after the Speaker of the House. I also didn't realize that Treasury came before Secretary of Defense. Looks like we are all plotting scenarios to get to a rational person...Mattis.
I wonder if he will stay around long if we get in a crisis and DT starts telling him ridiculous or unlawful things to do

[KewlKat]

53. here you go

Presidential line of succession in the United States of America

Vice President (Mike Pence)
Speaker of the House of Representatives (Paul Ryan)
President pro tempore of the Senate (Orrin Hatch)
Secretary of State (Rex Tillerson)
Secretary of the Treasury (Steven Mnuchin)
Secretary of Defense (James Mattis)

[sharedvalues]

54. North of the River means the FBI?

CIA is west of the river
Pentagon south
Congress and WH north too?

[Recursion]

55. That is not what I meant

Though FBI is north of the river. One outfit is *just* north of the river, at Bolling.

[sharedvalues]

56. Different river. Let's hope that this country gets righted soon

it will take not just a russia investigation but also Democrats speaking up for their values.

[pinboy3niner]

60. If it's at Bolling it has to be...

DIA HQ.

[USALiberal]

58. What type of source do you have? New here so just curious how true this is. n/t

[McCamy Taylor]

59. Gotta save his own skin.

[madville]

62. Looks like this all may have been premature

Seth Abramson is now saying the Kayyam appears to be backtracking on her initial claim that her sources said Flynn had flipped. She is now saying that her sources were "merely wondering" if it was possible that he did.
