This clip from the TODAY Show, I truly believe, shows Conway just giving up in real time. Especially at :27 when she says "resigned" and shakes her head.

 

[Felix Lighter]

IDK why the FBI would give him immunity. Plea bargain maybe

If it means taking down a treasonous POTUS, you'd hope the FBI would do whatever it took but that's assuming Comey gives a shit about the country.

 

[Toki767]

I have to wonder how much people like Spicer and Conway are getting paid.

It can't be worth this much stress. Not to mention they probably aren't going to be getting another job after this.

 

[Unison]

Would Obama have been briefed on this?

It only makes sense that he would have been, given the timeline.

He was President at the time, so I'd imagine he would have known.

Who gives a fuck as long as he testifies

 

[EatinOlives]

Chaffetz continues to be a scumbag.

LOL sure, the information just leaked itself and Flynn decided to resign out of the goodness of his heart.

I sincerely hope Republicans catch as much flak as possible sitting with thumbs up their asses over this.

She needs a break, a vacation pronto

The way she looks is not healthy

 

[Muffin1611]

Weird mix of bullshit and facts, not sure I like taste of that spoonful. Trump / WH was informed weeks ago by DoJ, but it didn't have any effect on Flynn's posting or public displays of trust and support towards him from administration.

Trump & Goonsquad just prayed that shit wouldn't get out. It did get out and now they are pissed off because "bad leaks" took shit on their plans.

Yeah, just wasn't sure if another article already mentioned that Trump knew weeks before. As if anyone would believe they investigated him properly or something.

 

[Pomerlaw]

I know a bunch. They are all disgusted and regret voting for him. Maybe they're all lying, but they seem pretty pissed off whenever Trump's antics are brought up. They also blame the GOP now too.

As tempting as it must be to ridiculize them, don't.

You guys need everyone you can on the good side. It's really hard for people to admit they were wrong.

 

[bodyofanamerican]

Yup. Probably hasn't slept, and the weight of keeping this facade up is clearly weighing on her.

 

[Loxley]

Would you say she needs...







...a day off?

Hmmm...could they profit off a future book providing an insiders view of Trump's White House. I could see there being a demand for that.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

The NY Times says that there is a recording of Flynn's phone conversation. Is there any chance this will be made public?

"The Justice Department told the White House about the contents of Mr. Flynn’s conversation with Mr. Kislyak, which had been recorded by a government wiretap."

This could be Nixon Tapes level shit if it leaks.

 

[BronsonLee]

lol they fucking wiretapped Flynn
that is hilarious

 

[capitalCORN]

Yup. Probably hasn't slept, and the weight of keeping this facade up is clearly weighing on her.

Wny are we feeling sorry the person who went on national tv and made the sales pitch for 'alternative facts'?

 

[Akuun]

Yup. Probably hasn't slept, and the weight of keeping this facade up is clearly weighing on her.

With the amount of damage she's slinging on behalf of Trump, she doesn't deserve any mercy until she fucking resigns and tries to undo all the misinformation she's spread to the country.

 

[urge26]

She needs a break, a vacation pronto

The way she looks is not healthy

I'd say she needs to just go away, such as a 4 year vacation.

 

[KHarvey16]

We've known it was recorded for a long time. Intelligence was monitoring the Russian diplomat, which is normal.

 

[Palette Swap]

Would Obama have been briefed on this?

It only makes sense that he would have been, given the timeline.

Making it easier for the NSA to share its data collection with other federal agencies was sinister but makes sense in retrospect.
I assume that was another parental lock by Obama.

 

[Veitsev]

lol they fucking wiretapped Flynn
that is hilarious

All conversations with foreign agents are wiretapped.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

We've known it was recorded for a long time. Intelligence was monitoring the Russian diplomat, which is normal.

Let's hope it directly implicates Trump.

 

[wumster3000]

It hasn't even been a month in Trump's presidency and it's going to get worse.

Trump will be the worst president in history before it's over. He has already in my book, surpassed Bush Jr.

 

[bodyofanamerican]

Wny are we feeling sorry the person who went on national tv and made the sales pitch for 'alternative facts'?

I'm not sympathizing at all. Just stating that she looks exhausted from lying all the time.

 

[Pomerlaw]

Not me.

 

[Kurtofan]

What happens if Bannon and co win the White House Civil War against Priebus, is death certain

You mean a literal fascist may become the worst example of the highest seat afforded for public service?

 

[Mully]

Not Flynn. The intelligence community (the Times didn't specify which organization) taps into most of Russia's diplomats communications. Flynn is a dumb fuck for not realizing that his phone call would be under surveillance since its standard procedure for the NSA, CIA, DIA, State Department, and etc. to monitor all calls to and from Russian (and likely other adversaries') diplomats.

 

[Saint Gregory]

lol they fucking wiretapped Flynn
that is hilarious

Isn't there a rumor that the military was investigating him about a separate incident? Could have had a warrant based on that.

What kind of vetting are you doing if you appoint someone the NSA while he's under investigation for possible foreign influence?

 

[Nafai1123]

The administrations claims are so fucking weak.

"We only looked into whether there was a legal issue at that time."

Let me get this straight, you had no problem with being advised that Flynn was LYING about what he had said to Russia, and only cared about whether it was ILLEGAL? No care that the fact he LIED indicated something much, much worse than any potential illegality involving that conversation.

The entire defense is grasping at straws bullshit.

 

[Fenderputty]

If Russia doesn't tie up their loose ends first.

This reminds me that a new season of the Americans starts soon

 

[Easy_D]

the fan is made of shit

the whole ceiling is shit

I found a video that describes the Trump admin pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRx49-leiRE

The administrations claims are so fucking weak.

"We only looked into whether there was a legal issue at that time."

The entire defense is grasping at straws bullshit.

I mean, the odds are that he never lied to them at all and they're just trying to cover their own tracks by using Flynn as a fallguy, that should be incredibly obvious.

EXTREME VETTING! Believe me!

[Dash_Riprock]

I don't dare hope.

 

[Saint Gregory]

She looks as if she hasn't slept in weeks.

Oh man, I hadn't watched the video. This is like watching one of those fast motion videos of fruit decaying D:

 

[titiklabingapat]

Anna on CNN spitting hot fire again.

 

[Damaniel]

'Examine' and sweep it under the rug, no doubt - but I'd love to be proven wrong.

 

[Tovarisc]

I feel sorry for writers of HoC and Americans. Trump admin stealing all their shit.

 

[CrichtonKicks]

What? No, they are pretty much set for life making good money as consultants/lobbyists.

 

[Username1198]

Anna on CNN spitting hot fire again.

YOU DONT TELL HER TO STOP

 

[DOWN]

She looks as if she hasn't slept in weeks.

What the hell happens to her eye makeup every day? It looks like she has like watery eyes from allergies or something ruining it every day?

 

[Easy_D]

She looks as if she hasn't slept in weeks.

Have they performed some dark ritual where Kellyanne ages for Trump?

Granted, I do feel kind of misogynist for attacking her based on her looks, but like, it looks like the images are decades apart.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Trump will be the worst president in history before it's over. He has already in my book, surpassed Bush Jr.

I don't think he's quite there yet.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Let's hope it directly implicates Trump.

I have a hard time believing that is the case because the push back would be much harsher, especially with the response from the White House on Flynn's resignation.

 

[Tovarisc]

Lack of sleep and stress do wonders.

 

[KMS]

Trump might succeed in single handily bring back the McCarthy era and red scare with everyone witch hunting for people who've become Russian assets.

 

[Akuun]

She looks as if she hasn't slept in weeks.

I wonder if she has a conscience and actually has trouble sleeping at night for all the harmful bullshit she's spewed to the public.

Zero sympathy as long as she's still in this camp.

 

[Nafai1123]

I mean, the odds are that he never lied to them at all and they're just trying to cover their own tracks by using Flynn as a fallguy, that should be incredibly obvious.

Oh I have no doubt they knew, but even the denial spin they're trying to use is weak as fuck.
