If you wanted to come up with some sort of improper cooperation with the Russians by Trump, Flynn would be the obvious guy to start with--would've had contact with Trump that a guy like Page would never have had. And Manafort, of course, but campaign manager is different than NSD. Not to mention, the entire Deep State had/has it in for Flynn.mark wauckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247066866195200890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1608697421187043479.post-75507425535335228382018-12-18T10:20:16.164-06:002018-12-18T10:20:16.164-06:00Robert Mueller was appointed Special Counsel on Ma...Robert Mueller was appointed Special Counsel on May 17, 2017.

I recall seeing an article that claimed that the practice of handwritten notes (which are the real evidence) followed by the write-up (FD-302, which is not considered actual evidence) is favored by DoJ because it gives prosecutors an advantage in plea negotiations.
