That's kinda an emotional draw to a certain portion of America, I never understand the comfort they find in that posture.

Let me ask you this:
You are being tabbed to be the next Director of National Security for the USA.
Why do you need a lawyer to talk to the FBI? Why would you lie to the FBI in the first place?
Are you kidding me? What is the FBI's charter? They investigate crimes. Isn't the better question, "why would anyone talk to the FBI, WITHOUT a lawyer?"
It's well-established that Flynn agreed to "the lie" after his son was threatened with prosecution, if he didn't plea, as pumpf mentioned earlier.
A plea deal Flynn's first team of lawyers/FBI kept hidden from the court.
Unless you have something to hide ... which tells me you’re completely unfit for the job to begin with, unless you’re joining the most corrupt administration in history, then it seems more like a prerequisite ...
Conversely, why would a 3-star General agree with two voluntary, non-protocol sit-downs with the FBI (sans counsel), if he DID "have something to hide"?
When Bill Clinton was deposed by prosecutors, he had his attorney present (David Kendall). Why would a POTUS need an attorney? Especially when he (Clinton) is one, himself?
Flynn isn't a lawyer, he's a warrior.
Can someone please answer:
1). When we discovered Russians helped Trump win by interfering in our elections, why were Republicans so eager to dismiss the sanctions that Obama put in place in retaliation for the interference?
Repubs aren't allowed a "Re-Set"? B)

2). And why now won’t Republicans do anything to safeguard this election?
OK, let's make voter ID mandatory!
If you think allowing Russians to openly interfere in our elections, attack our country and democracy, and suffer no consequences just to call it “a reset” I question your patriotism.
I thought conservatives were bitching that Obama didn’t do anything in response to the election interference, but here you have Trump’s incoming administration already wanting to lift the sanctions the day they were announced by Obama - what a nice thank you for helping Trump win the election. “I asked Putin, he said he didn’t do it”. Words and actions of true traitors who have failed to protect America.
Make Voter ID mandatory ... glad you think that’s funny. Almost as funny as Trump’s claims of voter fraud. Or his “voter fraud investigation” by Kris Kobach who was laughed out of court for no evidence of voter fraud, and spanked so hard by the judge, he was forced to take a class on it because he was so lacking in any fundamental understanding of his own case. The courtroom isn’t Twitter, facts matter.
I’m from Oregon, we vote by mail. Easy, secure. Now GOP wants to convince their lemmings voting by mail could lead to fraud, but have zero proof of fraud yet again. Further proof GOP can’t win elections without blatant voter suppression and gerrymandering.
Widower of Scarborough staffer asks Twitter to remove Trump’s conspiracy theories“I’m asking you to intervene in this instance because the President of the United States has taken something that does not belong him — the memory of my dead wife — and perverted it for perceived political gain..."
“I have mourned my wife every day since her passing. I have tried to honor her memory and our marriage,” he wrote. “As her husband, I feel that one of my marital obligations is to protect her memory as I would have protected her in life.”

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the President of the United States.
Now he is basically accusing a TV show host of some kind of nefarious cover-up in a murder plot of one of his staffers.
Are we so far gone into partisanship that we are going to normalize the President accusing people of murder on Twitter?
Yes, yes we are.
And the GOP, Fox News and his supporters sit silent and complicit, pretending to ignore it when they all know Grandpa is a fucking nutcase, yet they continue to worship him and make bizarre claims like he’s the greatest POTUS since Lincoln.
For reference, here's the clip that Trump and McEnany are referring to.
Quote:MRC’s unearthed clip is dated May 29, 2003 and appears to show Scarborough laughing along with Imus about killing the intern.
“Don’t
be afraid to be funny, because you are funny. You know, I ask you why
you won Congress, you said you’d had sex with the intern and then you
had to kill her, that’s pretty risky to say,” Imus is seen saying.
“Exactly, what’re you gonna do,” Scarborough is heard replying, laughing.

How presidential to bring this up, a credit to the office. Such a mature and stable leader, glad he's on this, nothing else going on he should be addressing.

kind of what he (Trump) was saying about the dems in the house when he was trying to get things rolling to deal with Covid and instead having to deal with bull shit impeachment charges, but of course at that point in time, getting rid of him through bull shit charges was more important than dealing with the more pressing matters of state.

Yeah and he should have been removed then. Check your timeline dude, nothing going on with Covid at the time, just the GOP falling in line. But that don't matter does it.

My timeline is fine.
covid got rolling in china in december about the same time as the house started their bull shit, it got sent to the senate in mid january around the time things were really heating up with covid, but I stand by what I said. all of govt should have been focused on covid as soon as China started to get weird about it.
