" No one has offered it yet as far as we know."

Too soon; he needs to be locked up for treason. Maybe give immunity to Kush the Tush.



Running Out of Rungs on the Ladder
Talking Points Memo
by Josh Marshall

Mike Flynn tells the FBI he's willing to talk, but only for immunity. But you only get immunity if you deliver someone else higher up the ladder. And there's only one person higher up the ladder.

Charles Lister?Verified account @Charles_Lister

Exceptional 8mins of testimony by good friend @selectedwisdom today, on #Russia’s active measures against the U.S:

“Follow the trail of dead Russians… more dropping dead in last 3months linked to our investigation” - @selectedwisdom today to Senate Intel
c-span.org


. @selectedwisdom: - “ #Russia's overt media outlets sought to sideline [candidates]… @marcorubio IMO, you suffered through these efforts."

. @selectedwisdom: - 'I know for sure I’ll be targeted after this hearing… having worked for the intel community, nobody will protect me.'

at Senate Intel: - ‘ #Russia bots push conspiracy theories when #Trump is clearly online, tagging him & hoping for traction'

Stunning exchange at Senate Intel:

Q: GOP Sen - ‘Why do #Russia active measures work? A: @selectedwisdom - “Because #Trump embraces them."

So far Flynn WANTS immunity. No one has offered it yet as far as we know. But no one will offer immunity, unless Flynn is able and willing to give up someone bigger than him. Flynn's lawyers certainly know that.

But no one will offer immunity, unless Flynn is able - or plain willing - to give up Trump or someone close to him clearly under his control.

Thus my guess: No immunity deal!
