He wasn't going to bring enough to the table, no soup for you.

Hmmmm, someone made that prediction last night. Next shoe to drop is that he's prosecuted for the events from years ago, and end of story.

Trump's going... oh wait, nvm

That may be true but isn't how I view it.

You give immunity to a potential "guilty" party in order to get information that you are unable to get otherwise in order to present a case to many others. Not giving him immunity says his testimony is not needed and it still keeps him in play for paying a price for his actions. If there is any price to pay. That is something that will be found out later.

Of course I'm just guessing, maybe an in-the-know senator will cast some light on this for everyone.

I said last night that they would not let him off completely; working for Turkey and not disclosing it is serious ****.

"Trump echoed Flynn's lawyer in a Friday morning tweet, arguing that Flynn "should ask for immunity" in the ongoing probe into possible ties between the campaign and Russia. The president argued that concerns over Russia were a "witch hunt" of "historic proportion" by media outlets and Democrats."

That stupid f'ucker, little hands donnie, is going down.

He gets immunity, says nothing of consequence, the right questions are not asked (or he lies about them).....once immunity is granted.....is he then immune from having to testify again? Or can he simply just continue to lie to congress? This might be Trump strategy. Maybe smart to turn it down, and subpoena anyway, right?
