If there's some treason squirted on a blue dress, I want to know about it, but if you're just going to insinuate my wife had an affair to get me angry, fuck that.

So Sally Yates has now said that she warned the Trump team about Flynn (the bolding is my emphasis):

Former acting attorney general Sally Yates testified Monday that she expected White House officials to “take action’’ on her January warning that then-national security adviser Michael Flynn could be blackmailed by Russia, offering her first public statements about the national security concerns that rocked the early days of the Trump administration.

Yates’s testimony to a Senate Judiciary subcommittee capped months of debate over her role in the ouster of Flynn, a retired general who stayed on at the White House for 18 days after Yates’s warning.

The unanswered questions about whether any of President Trump’s associates coordinated with Russian attempts to meddle in last year’s presidential election has dogged the new administration since its first weeks, when the FBI’s investigation into Flynn first came to light. Congressional committees have been seeking answers to the same questions, but those efforts have been bogged down by partisan finger pointing and accusations that lawmakers are using important national security issues to score political points.

In more than three hours of closely watched testimony inside a packed hearing room, Yates described discussions she had with White House Counsel Donald McGahn, beginning on Jan. 26, in which she laid out her concerns about public claims made by Vice President Pence and other White House officials regarding Flynn’s conversations in December with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

At the time, Pence and others had publicly denied that Flynn had discussed easing U.S. sanctions with the Russian official. Intercepts reviewed by U.S. intelligence officials showed that he had, according to people familiar with the matter.

“We began our meeting telling him that there had been press accounts of statements from the vice president and others that related to conduct that General Flynn had been involved in that we knew not to be the truth,” Yates said. “The vice president was unknowingly making false statements to the American public, and General Flynn was compromised by the Russians.’’

Sally Yates is Paul Revere now.


Wait, was it one if by land? Or two if by sea? Help me Sally. You're my only hope now.

Also the "warning" from Obama to Trump about hiring Flynn reportedly had NOTHING to do with foreign ties. Just temperament. #SallyYates

Wake me up when charges are bought.

All the people you blame for the Iraq war, torture , drone strikes, surveillance, police state, and war in general hate Michael Flynn.

Imagine that, you agree with megalomaniacs who start wars to stimulate the economy. That Flynn guy must be real scum of the earth.

The kind that comes from a family which produces two US ARMY Generals. One which was once referred to as one of the greatest in the military. Who was on track to 4 stars until he was promoted to DIA and he butted heads with Obama over funding ISIS.

That is fact. His beef with Obama was that he wanted all out war on IS as opposed to pussy pussy footling around so they could fight Assad because.

You didn't even notice this story broke the same day as the FBI cleared Flynn. You don't even try.

Oh, you want to hear my thoughts? Okay, whatever I will share you some of my thoughts on this matter.

I do believe that the whole Trump administration (including Trump and Pence) DID know that Flynn was really connected to Putin and the Turks. I can see Trump not really caring about Flynn's connections to Turkey but I feel like they WANTED Flynn in there so bad because of his ties to Putin.

No this story came from the Sally Yate's testimony and broke today not way back in January.

Well that's just retarded. I think it's more than likely Trump and Pence knew quite a lot about his """ties""" to Russia but they didn't think it expedient to kick him to the curb until the shitlib media made such a fuss.

Shame. Kushner has far more ties to Russia.

McMaster is on his way out btw
