President Trump unleashed on Wednesday night, calling the FBI’s case against Michael Flynn a ‘scam’ after new evidence emerged about possible FBI motives.
According to Fox News:
President Trump blasted what he called the “scam” against Michael Flynn as newly released FBI files revealed agents discussing their motivations for interviewing the former national security adviser — in turn, raising serious questions about the future of the case against him.
As speculation about a possible pardon or other scenarios ramped up, Trump also tweeted in all-caps: “DIRTY COP JAMES COMEY GOT CAUGHT!”
Comey, who has been at sharp odds with Trump ever since his 2017 firing, oversaw the bureau at the time of Flynn’s fateful FBI interview.
What happened to General Michael Flynn, a war hero, should never be allowed to happen to a citizen of the United States again!

Does anybody really believe that Roger Stone, a man whose house was raided early in the morning by 29 gun toting FBI Agents (with Fake News @CNN closely in toe), was treated fairly. How about the jury forewoman with her unannounced hatred & bias. Same scammers as General Flynn!

The handwritten notes—penned by the FBI’s former head of counterintelligence Bill Priestap after a meeting with then-FBI Director James Comey and then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Fox News is told—further suggested that agents planned in the alternative to get Flynn “to admit to breaking the Logan Act” when he spoke to then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the presidential transition period.
The documents seem to reveal that the agents were not concerned with Flynn’s contacts with Kislyak. Another note is that the Logan Act, enacted in 1799 has never been used in criminal prosecution. Its intent was to not have people abroad represent themselves as agents of the United States who weren’t.
