FBI Agents Pursuing Michael Flynn Asked: Get Him to Lie, So We Can Prosecute Him, or Get Him Fired?
Kristina Wong 29 Apr 2020
Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) documents unsealed on Wednesday showed that FBI agents strategized on January 24, 2017, before speaking with former National Security Adviser Mike Flynn, about getting him to admit to breaking the Logan Act or getting him to lie so that he could be prosecuted or fired.
According to handwritten notes before a planned FBI interaction with Flynn, an unidentified FBI agent wrote: “What’s our goal? Truth/admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?â€
“We regularly show subjects evidence, with the goal of getting them to admit their wrongdoing. I don’t see how getting someone to admit their wrongdoing is going easy on them,†the agent added.
“If we get him to admit to breaking the Logan Act, give facts to DOJ + have them decide,†the agent wrote. “Or if he initially lies, then we present him [redacted] + he admits it, document for DOJ, + let them decide how to address it.â€
“If we’re seen as playing games, WH will be furious,†the agent added. “Protect our institution by not playing games.†WH is likely “White House.â€
There were also three emails accompanying the handwritten notes, including one from Peter Strzok, then-lead FBI agent in charge of the investigation into the Trump campaign, and Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer who was an adviser to then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.
