Being innocent offers one no protection during a witch hunt (that's why they're called witch hunts), so Flynn could be asking for immunity for any number of reasons that have nothing to do with the McCarthyite conspiracy theories being floated by the establishment scoundrels.

They already know much of what he would say. If it's valuable to make a close on a bigger target he'll get a deal.

Kelner said, however, that "out of respect" for the committees, he and his client would not be commenting on the details of their discussions with the committees.

Kelner then accused the media of being "awash with unfounded allegations, outrageous claims of treason, and vicious innuendo."

Correct me if I'm wrong you lawyers out there, but can't Flynn produce his own immunity by pleading the 5th to any question he wants to?

No. Immunity means he would not be prosecuted in exchange for his testimony. Pleading the fifth merely means you do not offer testimony that may incriminate you; however, it does not protect you from prosecution.

Was the same benefit of doubt given to the IRS director Lois Lerner or the IT contractor for Clinton, or were those cases "different" and you just "knew" they were guilty...

I have read the stories. Your story cites unnamed sources.


I did not see one where a member of either the Senate or House intelligence committee said that LTG Flynn asked for immunity and the committee rejected it. It is a good idea to seek immunity. I offer the case of Scooter Libbey who did nothing wrong but ended up going to jail.

let me help you out, tata



The top Democrat on the House intelligence committee says it's too early to consider an immunity deal for President Donald Trump's former national security adviser.

Rep. Adam Schiff says that Michael Flynn even discussing possible immunity in exchange for protection from prosecution is a "grave and momentous" step because of the seniority of his former position.
Schiff says the House intelligence committee is interested in hearing Flynn's story, but there would have to be coordination with the Senate intelligence committee and the Justice Department on the terms.

Request denied. In the cases I brought up it was argued that because those individuals invoked the 5th or requested immunity, then they must be guilty. That was in direct response to your "from the link" attempt to imply Flyn may not be guilty.

Here's a take from LawNewz;

"As a long-time criminal defense lawyer, this is more likely a good sign for team Trump. Guilty people don’t publicly ask for immunity; innocent people wary of false charges do. (This is the difference between Flynn here and his comments about Hillary aides who received immunity; Hillary aides all did it privately, not publicly, a very big difference, as you will see below)."

"
Some news outlets (https://www.wsj.com/articles/mike-flynn-offers-to-testify-in-exchange-for-immunity-1490912959)suggest Donald Trump’s deposed former national security advisor Michael Flynn is reported to be volunteering testimony in exchange for full immunity."
This tells me that two hours ago there is no confirmation that Flynn asked for immunity and was rejected.

This could be significant, and it could also just be a survival method to try and escape the attacks by the Democrats and media. It may be a bit like law enforcement in murder cases who get tunnel vision about who the murderer is, which makes them ignore other evidence or information and can bring down the wrong person.

It will be interesting to know what Flynn knows. I can't jump to the conclusion that this is entirely legit. Maybe he just doesn't want to be the fall guy.

That's a question you will have to ask yourself, if you go back and look, I never said or implied that Lerner was innocent or guilty for pleading the 5th. All I did was take notes of those who said she was guilty because she did.
