Twitter earlier this week had the MAGAs all talking about how the FBI had reportedly tried to entice NSA head nominee Michael Flynn (a grade A nutter) to lie to them, so as to get something to hang him on.
That was even as the FBI released its Roger Stone search warrant, which showed at least some details of his contacts with Julian Assange, and specifically about Julian Assange's info on stolen DNC emails.
Yes, stolen, both wingnuts of the left AND right on on Seth Rich conspiracy theories. (Over the past nine months or so, I've had various lefty-like horseshoers drop or even block my on Twitter over this. Their loss.)
The Hill has the basics. Stone was trying to get Assange to dish more, and promised to protect him from the feds, which REALLY comes off laughable given that it was Trump, not Obama, who had him officially indicted.
Politico has more, including possibly indirectly tying him to Flynn. That would be Stone's allegedly talking to Israel about information allegedly held by the Turkish government. Let us remember, that (IMO) Flynn as NSA designate did nothing wrong with talking with Russian ambassador Kislyak BUT was certainly unethical and illegally lobbying for Turkish President Erdogan over Gulen and the 2016 failed coup. Let us not forget he was guilty of that. Period. And more has come out since his plea.
Beyond this being another nail in the Seth Rich conspiracy theory coffin, it's another nail in the hypocrisy of MAGAs. Flynn was grifting for money on his "deep state" connections. But they still want to give him a pass.
Besides THAT, the new Flynn revelations don't really mean what MAGAs think they do.
