the media smells blood.....they will not let loose of this story.

Than what we've read so far.

The FBI is a police agency. It does not prosecute anyone or make the decision to prosecute anyone. Those decisions are made by the Attorney General. Now does anyone really think Jeff Sessions is going to prosecute Flynn?

But, the rethugs in the house are more worried about the 2018 elections than national security.

though I don't fully understand the implications at this point.

And were just angry he had lied to pence.

I thought it was also interesting (and surprising) that Fox broke this bit of news.

...his other contacts and relationship with Russians (during the election, before inauguration) is still actively under investigation.

Months on all these clowns, and "so far have found no evidence of collusion."

What the hell?

Even though the intelligence services listen in to foreign agent calls, absent a warrant, the information gathered might be inadmissible.

There is no question he lied earlier to FBI, since when White House counsel brought him in for questioning, he admitted everything about the content of the conversations- verifying accuracy of the intelligence information presented to White House by Justice Dept.


Reason he won't be prosecuted is that although he initially gave flat denial to FBI, FBi continued pressing him so he knew they were onto his lie, and he changed his statement to FBI to say he didn't recall details of conversations. So FBI allowed him to hedge in his answer. Wash Post has article describing FBI interview with Flynn.

Two sets of rules, probably more.
