Sally Yates had the info on Flynn before the election.

She showed it to Obama before the election and Obama sat on it. He didn't want to come out and announce anything that might throw the election towards either candidate. At the time it appeared that Clinton would win, if we believe the polls that came out in late October and early November 2016.

What does this mean for us who watched it all go the other way? FBI Director Comey had no compunction about announcing his dirt (false charges) on Clinton 10 days before the election. Obama held back on this explosive (and true) info about Trump and his campaign.

So how do we deal with this now? Sally Yates needs to be part of the independent bi-partisan investigation/prosecution that will be called for soon. She needs to share this info and tell where and how she got it.

This is a major point in the **Russia-Fuckup** and it needs to be addressed during the impeachment proceedings.

Just sayin'
