President Trump's former national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, pleaded guilty on Friday to lying to the F.B.I. about conversations with the Russian ambassador last December during the presidential transition, bringing the special counsel's investigation into the president's inner circle.
Mr. Flynn, who appeared in federal court in Washington, acknowledged that he was cooperating with the investigation by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, into Russian interference in the 2016 election. His plea agreement suggests that Mr. Flynn provided information to prosecutors, which may help advance the inquiry.

There is nothing wrong with "whataboutism".
So you've given it a cute name. That doesn't make it wrong.
Your hypocrisy really does matter. Fairness also matters.
When you support "your team" despite numerous felonies
that undermine the USA, and then support prosecuting the
"other team" over some trivial thing, you are showing your
true disrespect for the idea of a country ruled by laws applying
to everybody. You don't care. You just want that "other team"
to get taken down, and you'll accept anything to make it happen.
This is how we become third world.
