'Decent chance he lied to the FBI': Counselor to 4 presidents says Mike Flynn may be arrested not Paul ManafortBob Brigham 27 OCT 2017 AT 22:49 ET
An advisor to four different presidential administrations suggested a pause in the rush to assume that former Donald Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort is the target of reported sealed indictments.
David Gergen, who served presidents of both parties, suggested that former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn might instead be Robert Muellers first target.
You know, the main person weve been talking all along is Paul Manafort, Gergen explained to Anderson Cooper on CNN. It is just very possible that the indictment could be against Michael Flynn.
Its worth noting that in the last few days, Jim Woolsey, former head of CIA, who was in the transition and abruptly left with no explanation is a very honest man, he was there to observe a lot of this, and he got the hell out, Gergen explained.

(28,270 posts)This weekend could be a dangerous time for America though. Trump could set off a constitutional crisis by trying to fire Mueller.
He could order a nuclear missile/bomber strike on NK to change the narrative of what happens Monday as well.

(2,050 posts)Dumpfshat can't blanket pardon people of he doesn't know who they are yet , and I think that if a bunch were arrested at once no one would stand out and maybe if they concentrate on just one, show just how solidly they have their case and the goods on him, others may flip left and right.
I don't think they would totally show their hand yet, but I could be extremely wrong.
Either way it's popcorn time!!!!!!!!

(51,597 posts)Could he get both Flynn and Manafort at the same time?

(22,651 posts)could be someone we don't even know from the news shows. This is very early in investigation, could be some low level person that authorities will use to bring in the larger fish. I want many heads to roll on this attack against our democracy and the theft of our election.
I don't even care if some Ds were involved- all of these people, these traitors have to be purged from OUR government.

I could really get behind that, really I could.
