so I get the facts on this one straight:

The FBI cleared Flynn of wrongdoing pertaining to russia on Jan 23rd, finding no incriminating evidence
Trump had dinner with Comey on Jan 27th, and then "Attempted to obstruct justice" retroactively or something
Comey sat on this for 4 months straight without saying a word about this attempt to obstruct justice
even though he is required by law to report attempts to obstruct justice or be himself guilty of misprision of a felony
and just now it comes out after he's fired

Did I get the timeline right?
I mean I guess there some question as to how good a case of misprision could be possible given the 'active' component of concealment

When Hillary Clinton did it, we never heard about it.

This honestly feels like the MH370 "news" that we had on 24/7 for about 2 months but to the nth degree. It's like... dawg if you find something where you can take action let's say impeachment proceedings even something prosecutable report it but to continue with this trash day in and day out is really going to desensetize the American public. I feel like it's already at the point where people see these headlines and aren't even phased.

Flynn is a good guy just like Bo Bergdahl has served his country with honor and distinction.

And as we all know, good guys are above the law.

yep
Comey obstructed justice for months in order to provide himself cover and an alibi of sorts since drumpf "obstructed justice" - on an issue (flynn) that had been cleared by the fbi days before

That is what the failing nyslimes, the rest of the mouthbreathing media, the democratic dingbats, and the leftie sore losers here are now fainting onto couches about

Vladimir Putin said Wednesday he was "prepared to provide a record" of the conversation between his head of diplomacy Sergei Lavrov and US President Donald Trump who is accused of disclosing classified information during this recent interview in Washington .

"If the US administration allows it, we are ready to provide the record of the conversation between Lavrov and Trump in the US Congress and Senate," Putin told a press conference in Sochi with Italian Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni.

Seems about right, vague strongarming seems right in Trump's wheelhouse.
