Opinion | Why the Michael Flynn revelations are so important

Former national security adviser Michael Flynn outside federal court in Washington in December. By Jennifer Rubin Jennifer Rubin Opinion writer covering politics and policy, foreign and domestic Email Bio Follow Opinion writer May 17 at 9:45 AM The Post reports:

The voice mail was from John Dowd, President Trump’s former personal lawyer who, according to The Post, “tried to learn whether Flynn had any problematic information about the president after Flynn’s attorney signaled his client might begin cooperating with Mueller’s investigators.” The disclosure, of course, raises serious questions as to why Barr redacted this material in the report, and why evidence that Trump did precisely what Barr said was illegal did not convince him that the president had obstructed justice.

Even if we are not talking about criminal liability, the episode points to Trump’s unfitness for office. Former prosecutor Joyce White Vance tells me, “Knowing that the President’s lawyers sought to discourage Flynn from cooperating with prosecutors underscores how fundamentally flawed this presidency is. Mob bosses try to keep their associates from helping law enforcement uncover crimes, not presidents.” Recall that in the articles of impeachment that were drawn up against President Richard M.

There not. Just ignore these fools. Watching Comey, Brennan, and Clapper all try to stay out of prison will be much more entertaining.

Because it solidifies that Trump and his lawyers attempted to obstruct justice and they tried tampering with a witness.

It's a nothing burger story designed by Leftist fake-journalists to keep their brainwashed idiot readers/viewers aroused and amused.

Barrs BS gives reason for the public release of the completely Un Redacted Mueller Report. All trust and respect of Barr is gone.🤔

Didn't your momma told you that nobody cares about your opinion

We should focus on three main takeaways from the new information.

Nothing is important anymore. Especially justice.

Because money rules. More than your obligation to the democratic party. Helping to reelecting Trump is gold for five more years.

LoL!

Well, this explains the typical Trump rage-tweet response this morning.

Fact: Editors of the Washington Post believe that Questions are Opinions.

No, it’s not. Sorry

This is huge !! No rational for Barr’s redaction other than to hide obvious refutation to Barr’s distorted summary

When the transcript is made public and the voice mail recorded is heard by everyone there will be tons of denials,accusations and finger pointing.I can read it now=no obstruction and total exoneration !!

LOCK HIM UP! Oh wait...

realDonaldTrump doesn’t know...
