Facts lost to history (except in the Proof books): as soon as Flynn was indicted, his then-lawyer told the FBI he wanted to cooperate. Within days Trump had called Flynn to say "stay strong." Trump wasn't charged with Witness Tampering; Flynn was pardoned. https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/08/politics/michael-flynn/index.html

(PS) In other words, Flynn had incriminating evidence to offer about parties senior to him—and almost no one was, besides the Trump family—to save his own skin, and when Trump heard Flynn was going to talk he tampered with a federal witness. There were no consequences for anyone.

(PS2) People forget too that midway through his *partial* cooperation with the FBI in the summer after his indictment, Flynn suddenly ceased even that *partial* aid—as even *that* was seen as potentially dangerous to Trumpworld interests. Now we're told Bidenworld will let it go.

(PS3) What this underscores is that we've learned *nothing* as a country in the nearly 40 years since Iran-Contra. When a soldier (Oliver North, Michael Flynn) commits crimes for a president (Reagan, Trump), our system tells them *not to worry about it* because they will be fine.

(PS4) Of course Flynn's crimes were worse than North's, largely preceded the administration he worked in, were for personal gain more than to advance any foreign policy, and were overseen by a corrupt, criming, tampering president way beyond anything that Ronald Reagan ever was.

(PS5) Whoever Joe Biden nominates as his AG has a choice: communicate to all current and future government-service aspirants that crimes can be committed without penalty—because a *certain class of Americans* are above the law—or uphold rule of law.

It actually *is* that simple.
