24. What's important is that trump lied. Flynn is gone and no longer the story.

Remember trump briefly being asked by a reporter who stuck a mike in his face on Air Force One about about the report that Flynn lied about his conversations with the Russian ambassador — tump said he knew nothing about it and would have to look into it?

He knew then, had been briefed already and subsequently allowed Pence to be lied to by Flynn.

There should be repercussions — I mean undeniable proof that the president is an out-and-out liar and allowed the VP to be lied to is pretty substantial.

And what's up with FOX, are they starting turn on him too?

It sounds like Flynn is being grilled. KittyWampus Feb 2017 #1
Sounds like they are covering for Pence who really did know in short order. nikibatts Feb 2017 #38

Makes sense - Spicer and trump said they were briefed (Yates), and after WH counsel et. al. jmg257 Feb 2017 #3
They're preparing to move Pence into the presidency. drm604 Feb 2017 #4

That's my guess. Fox has the talking points and agenda. I don't think Trump realizes it. He's a AnotherMother4Peace Feb 2017 #9

since Fox is reporting it it must be baloney so I wonder what the truth REALLY is. starshine00 Feb 2017 #13
I'm thinking Fox is about ready for President Pence at this point. Tommy_Carcetti Feb 2017 #14
I hope someone in the IC has tape of Pence being acknowledging the calls, info, etc. n/t woodsprite Feb 2017 #17
That would be interesting. Tommy_Carcetti Feb 2017 #19

My guess is Ryan is worse than Pence starshine00 Feb 2017 #23
Ryan strikes me as more polished, intelligent and photogenic than Pence. Tommy_Carcetti Feb 2017 #25
I don't think Ryan will represent our country well at all starshine00 Feb 2017 #27
Ryan is guilty/complicit as well! 2naSalit Feb 2017 #34
