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.

    Hillary's stealing the nomination is what took the party down and they haven't learned a goddamn thing from it, still neglecting the White Americans in favor of minority welfare votes.

    There is still more trouble for the Democrats a-brewin -- Debbie and the Awan brothers, Obama's use of the deep state, the extent of Hillary's foreign gun-running and secret-selling, and illegals committing voter-fraud in favor of Clinton.

    And it's really a goddamn shame that there were no viable third-party candidates. Gary Johnson, for whom I had previously voted, went full-retard on the dude-weed and can barely hold a conversation without giggling every 5 seconds. Jill Stein is a hoary open-borders Jew who wanted to push our standard living to that of the third-world.

    Of course Bernie was typically Democratic and big on Socialism, which is a dog-whistle for welfare state with low standards of living, but at least he was also populist.

    They didn't learn from Humprey and McCarthy; why would they learn this time?
