I'm guessing he's a "cooperating witness".
So WHO is he testifying against?
Gotta be someone higher up
WHO could that be?

Heh, thing is: If Obama told Trump not to cut his own d*** off, Trump would immediately break out the scissors.

The charge, particularly after the recent split with Trump's legal team, suggests a plea deal with information forthcoming. And even that is speculation. The idea that this will ensnare Trump is just throwing darts in the dark.

Yes, for anybody wondering why Flynn is pleading to such weak charges.....he is ABSOLUTELY pleading down. Mueller had him on a lot more than just a process crime.

Flynn pleaded down in exchange for helping Mueller bury Trump and his homies.

Napolitano specifically said that Mueller was looking for info as to what the president knew and when he knew it.
Napolitano added more this morning, and right after that a female reporter said that Flynn will receive 5-12 months (sentence) when, with other potential charges, he could have been facing 60 (yes 60) years. Later, a female commentator, Katie Pavlich, also mentioned the 5-12 months vs. 60 years.

10-15 years from now, they're going to make movies about what is happening today. It is so crazy!

Bob Mueller will probably go down in history as an American hero. I am so thankful for what he's doing.

He will be pardoned by Trump. He and Trump are as buddy-buddy as it gets.

Ya know what, I wouldn't be surprised if that does happen.

Unfortunately for Trump, he has no idea what that would do to his already poor credibility.
