Hope they have him in protective custody. I fear for him if he's going to sing. On the other hand, I can't wait for the fallout and subsequent twitter implosion! That's why I never expected Manafort to flip, he knows what Putin will do. And seeing as Russia seems to have carte blanche to do whatever the hell they want in this country under Trump, a sudden heart attack is his future if he sings. Or an accidental fall out a window...

I think you've nailed it! Seriously. This week has had me REALLY down with the tax bill...this is such welcome news. Me too. When clergy is arrested at the Capital for reading scripture regarding the Least of These in protest of the tax bill, but AL wants to send a pedophile to the Senate, I've not been a ray of sunshine. I hadn't heard about the clergy. do you have a link?

ABC is reporting that Flynn is prepared to testify that he reached out to Russia about the sanctions at the direction of trump!?! That's what I'm seeing on Twitter. Is anyone else seeing this? The reports I've read are suggesting Flynn spoke with a “senior official” of Trump’s transition team who was at Mar-a-Lago resort in December 2016 to discuss what to communicate to the Russian ambassador, according to Reuters. I reckon it's Jared!

I know I know, but....... Megan McCain said something insightful on the View after the news... She thinks that the REPs in Alabama will overwhelmingly go out to vote for moore because they will think that THEIR wonderful president is being picked on when he did nothing wrong. They cannot see past their Pinocchio noses!!

I love Twitter when things are crazy. OMG, seriously?!? Can they be any more obvious in their efforts to ignore current events? (and the answer is YES, of COURSE they know about Christmas- they know that's when they get to chase the cat under the tree, and that they get presents to rip open!!) I assumed that was humor. Tell me that was humor. Because yes, dogs do know about Christmas. It's the season the outhouse becomes indoor plumbing.

I saw the news and I had to come here immediately to celebrate with you all!!! I am not a big drinker but I think tonight this calls for a few. I've had a crappy week so I might add a game where I'll take a shot every time Trump tweets "witch hunt" or "hillary" or "nfl". And the day isn't even over yet. Can't wait to see if something else comes down the pike!

KKKeebler Elf Sessions
(another good one, from comments on an article from The Hill website...) he does look like a Keebler elf. Except they know stuff- like how to make cookies- and he apparently can't remember ANYthing. I hope he's caught up in this soon-- maybe on one of those recordings that I hope exist somewhere?? So we don't have to see that satisfied little smirk of his anymore.

She gets intense, but mostly reasonable, I am glad she can stand her ground, although sometimes I want to smack her..... oops.... Her dad has taught her well.

There are likely many, many tapes - which Mueller will use to show the perps that they have them and will use them if necessary. However, the intelligence people on twitter are saying he won't enter into evidence if he doesn't have to because they give Russia info on how they are obtained.

Flynn issues statement on guilty plea: My actions were 'wrong' BY JOHN BOWDEN - 12/01/17 11:53 AM EST Former national security adviser Michael Flynn issued a statement Friday acknowledging his actions were "wrong" after pleading guilty to lying to the FBI in the ongoing special counsel investigation. In the statement released by his lawyers, Flynn refuted accusations of "treason" that have been made against him, but apologized for lying to investigators. Flynn has made a plea deal with Mueller's team that ensures the former Trump administration official's full cooperation with the investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. "It has been extraordinarily painful to endure these many months of false accusations of 'treason' and other outrageous acts," Flynn said in his statement."The actions I acknowledged in court today were wrong, and, through my faith in God, I am working to set things right," he added. "My guilty plea and agreement to cooperate with the Special Counsel's Office reflect a decision I made in the best interests of my family and my country."

— Byron Tau (@byrontau) December 1, 2017The statement and move by Flynn come after days of speculation that the former national security adviser was cooperating with Mueller's team following reports that Flynn terminated his information-sharing agreement with President Trump's legal team. Flynn is the first Trump administration official to be brought down by Mueller's investigation. The sentence for the charge carries a maximum of five years in prison.thehill.com/homenews/administration/362780-flynn-issues-statement-on-guilty-plea-my-actions-were-wrong
