Johnson still maintains that there is an informant who said there was FBI meetings occurring off-site.

Fair enough. I am really looking forward to hearing from the informant, though.


Not attempting to dismiss anything, btw. Just posting updates (regardless of who they help or hurt politically) as they come in.

Johnson says there is an informant, and the text was thought to be possible confirmation of what the informant was saying.

What an IDIOT!! I know House GOP members do this sort of crap all the time. But I expect MORE from US Senators, even GOP

Why?

Yes, that is the correct way to analyze this, there is evidence to conforms that.

The media pushed the idea that Flynn was going to face multiple charges, to then push the idea that Flynn flipped.

Could Flynn have been charged for multiple crimes, and flipped, its possible, but there is no evidence of either.

Look for actual evidence, not media hype.

Yes, maybe his stance will change, but it's not relevant, the whole secret society thing was overblown by the media anyway.

This is a common tactic, take one small irrelevant thing, show some error in it, and then use it to attempt to dismiss the verified, and relevant information in the overall issue.

He was lying about the informant....all he knew was the texts. If he STILL wanted to go with his original story, why would he say today that it was likely a JOKE?????

Please provide a source that proves there is no informant?

I am an avowed liberal Dem, but I worked with Sen. John Warner over a number of issues and held him in the highest esteem to this day. I voted for him, too....because he kept Oliver North OUT of the Senate.
