Game-changer? Trump admin says OBAMA AUTHORIZED Flynn’s contacts…

I cannot keep up with the turns in this story. Now el Trumpo is claiming that Obama knew and approved of Mike Flynn’s contact with the Roooskies.

From the Hill:

The White House said on Friday that it was the Obama administration that authorized former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s contacts with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during President Trump’s transition, according to CNN.

Flynn pleaded guilty on Friday to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Kislyak in the month before Trump took office, the first current or former Trump White House official brought down by special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s election meddling.

Court records indicate that his communications with Kislyak were directed by a Trump transition official, with multiple news outlets reporting that official was Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner.

“They are saying here at the White House that Flynn’s conversations with Sergey Kisylak were quote ‘authorized’ by the Obama administration,” CNN correspondent Jim Acosta said.

“We should point out, that is something that we have not heard before in terms of a defense from this White House,” he said.

Former Director of National Intelligence Clapper says NO!

But, as many like to point out, he’s lied to the American public before, about surveillance.

So if this is true, can they prove it? And if they do, is FLYNN off the hook?

If he IS, then Mueller is gonna end up with a lot of egg on his face.

If NOT, then it’ll be another instance of the Trump admin lying to cover their butts and not producing any evidence of their claim…
