House Republicans buried this new email from Flynn in their report on Russian election interference

Another big coincidence.

Intelligence released a 253-page report on their investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The purpose of the report, which the Democrats on the committee said was issued prematurely, was to announce their conclusion that the Trump campaign did not collude with Russia.

But buried on page 72 was something genuinely newsworthy.

On July 15, 2016, General Michael Flynn, Trump’s former National Security Adviser who is now cooperating with Special Counsel Mueller, sent an email predicting “a number of things…will happen…via cyber operations…by both hacktivists [and] nation-states.”

The Republicans on the committee attempt to explain away Flynn’s email by saying it “does not necessarily indicate non-public knowledge.” But this was not an explanation that Flynn provided to the committee. Flynn, in fact, was never interviewed by the committee.

Moreover, while the committee suggests that Flynn is potentially relying on publicly known information, Flynn is explicitly predicting future events in this email.

enablers of treason are still enablers of treason

[gratuitous]

1. Euhm, a lucky guess?

Picture House Republicans as little kids (yeah, I know, no stretch) with chocolate smeared all around their mouths denying that they had anything to do with the missing candy bar.

[ooky]

2. Congressional investigations are a waste of taxpayer money on partisan bullshit.

The only investigation I care about is Mueller's.

3. No shit. They are investigating themselves.

4. The congressional investitation was probably part of Putin's plan.

He worked on bringing down our government, and figured his congressional puppets would put the nail in the coffin with their "findings."

5. Republicans were corrupted by trump and Putin,

To make this protect him by claiming no collusion, or conspiring, which everyone knows they colluded and conspired, and this will also help turn both the House and Senate over to Democrats to control in Nov. . Every day more comes out exposing they lied, or obstructed , and only makes their findings more unbelievable and untrue. Nov. elections will become the worse nightmare way beyond what they're expecting. Ousting these criminals will be many people's mission in Nov. , and it should be as they want to destroy Medicare and Social Security now, and protect Putin and trump .
