FBI Not Expected To Pursue Charges Against Michael Flynn

WASHINGTON, Feb 16 (Reuters) - Former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn told FBI agents in an interview last month that he had not discussed sanctions against Russia with Moscow’s U.S. ambassador before President Donald Trump took office, the Washington Post reported on Thursday, citing current and former U.S. officials.

Flynn’s Jan. 24 interview with the Federal Bureau of Investigation could expose him to charges, since lying to the agency is a felony, but any decision to prosecute would lie with the Justice Department.

U.S. intelligence agencies intercepted Flynn’s call with Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak after Trump’s election, in which the two discussed sanctions, the Post reported previously.

The FBI was not expected to pursue any charges against Flynn over the call unless new information emerged, CNN reported on Thursday, citing law enforcement officials.

Flynn resigned on Monday after news reports that he withheld information from Vice President Mike Pence about his conversation with Kislyak. (Reporting by Tim Ahmann; Editing by Eric Walsh and Bill Rigby)

Of course. Treason is no big deal. Republicans have been treasonist for the last 8 years and were rewarded with running all of government.

So much for "Lying to the FBI is a major felony."

Anyone whom thought this man was going to be charged is out of there mind. This man was confirmed as the National Security Advisor and was a General. This man knows way too many secrets that will always keep him out of jail . if anyone will not allow him to go to jail it is the CIA. There is zero percent chance he will be prosecuted or go to jail.

It's easy to dismiss him as a kook but this man is intelligent and he understand how disinformation works and know how to manipulate a population to react in a way that help whatever cause they are trying to bring about via social engineering. What Alex Jones engage in is social engineering and manufacturing consent. While the conscious amongst us are not susceptible to it the vast majority of the population falls for it every time.
