<snip>
President Trump’s national security advisor talked about sanctions against Russia with the country’s ambassador in December, The Washington Post reports.

The report, which cites current and former U.S. officials, contradicts Michael Flynn’s assertion on Wednesday that he never discussed the topic with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak during a series of phone calls in the month before Trump took office.

A spokesman for Flynn walked back that denial on Thursday, saying that “while he had no recollection of discussing sanctions, he couldn’t be certain that the topic never came up,” according to The Post.

The phone calls are still part of an ongoing review by the FBI into Russia's meddling in U.S. politics, but officials told The Post that they had not found evidence that Flynn made a deal to loosen sanctions after Trump took office.

1. The GOP seems to be OK with operatives for foreign governments running our government.

I guess they won't be calling anyone a pinko-commie-liberal anymore.

4. We will find out who among the ReTHUGs were involved in this

coup - it s nothing less and history will absolve me. Truth will out.

I am curious about who will clean up this mess

[Solly Mack]

5. I agree that other republicans have to be involved.

Either directly or because they refuse to do anything about it.

Had Obama or Clinton been linked to Putin in such a way, the GOP would still be screaming for their heads on a pike.

I leave it to you, malaise, and my grown children, to see that this mess is cleaned up. Godspeed.

19. Well malaise is no youngster either

but the American people's response to Groper Don the Con suggests that they will clean it up

Flynn has frequently boasted that he was the first DIA director to be invited into the headquarters of Russia’s military intelligence directorate, known as the GRU, although at least one of his predecessors was granted similar access. “Flynn thought he developed some rapport with the GRU chief,” a former senior U.S. military official said.

U.S. intelligence agencies say they have tied the GRU to Russia’s theft of troves of email messages from Democratic Party computer networks and accuse Moscow of then delivering those materials to the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks, which published them in phases during the campaign to hurt Hillary Clinton, Trump’s Democratic rival.
