So now it's okay to lie to the F.B.I. if you're politically connected?

I thought the F.B.I was brutal on perjury.

The only way that Flynn would roll over on Trump (and maybe expose even the collusion with Trump's team and Russian hacking) would be to face prison time. Wouldn't the F.B.I. normally be using potential charges against such a suspect to climb the ladder of culpability?

Rats!

But there asre other damns ready to burst (like the dossier)! Unless, of course, the F.B.I. conveniently over looks them.

Sessions and Comey will protect any and all of them.

No charges no matter what they do.

Yes...I believe it's the DOJ that can decide whether or not to prosecute, and guess who's in charge of that?? We know Sessions won't prosecute!
