Crooked Hillary Walks Free
Michael Flynn’s cooperation with the Russia probe seemed to unnerve President Donald Trump on Saturday night, and he lashed out at the FBI for ‘destroying’ the ex-adviser’s life.
‘So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday “interrogation” with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times… and nothing happens to her?’ Trump wrote.
‘Rigged system, or just a double standard?’
Trump complained that Flynn’s ‘life is destroyed’ by his FBI lies, while Clinton ‘lies many times’ during her interrogation by the FBI into her email server without any problems
Trump also complained that she deleted emails from her server three weeks after receiving a congressional subpoena. Trump banged the ‘lock her up’ drum to great effect during election
In a second tweet shortly after, Trump added: ‘Many people in our Country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails? No justice!’
The tweets come the day after Flynn agreed to cooperate with the FBI’s investigation into Russia’s meddling with the presidential election.
Flynn pleaded guilty to lying about communicating with Russian ambassador and alleged spy Sergey Kislyak in December last year, before Trump stepped into office.
Critics say that violates the 1799 Logan Act, which forbids unauthorized Americans from representing the US government to foreign powers that are in dispute with the US.
On Friday claims emerged that senuor members of the Trump transition team, had identified Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and close adviser, as the man who told him to liaise with Russia.
Trump’s tweets on Saturday see him returning – as often happens when he is under attack – to a rhetorical line that worked well during the elections.
