In reply to the discussion: ***BREAKING*** NBC- Mueller now has enough evidence to indict both Mike Flynn and his son. [View all]peggysue2
(12,479 posts)When it comes to Mueller and his team, they have played everything close to the vest. Which means something like this leaking (assuming the leak is accurate) would be well planned for its timeliness and effect. Could be a last chance offer for Flynn and his son or it could be a smack at those claiming the whole investigation is a nothingburger.
Strange, too, that Mike Flynn Jr was recently tweeting a broadcast taunt to his detractors, claiming he would never be arrested. It was something of a 'catch me if you can' line. On the other hand, there are rumors out there that Mike Flynn has already flipped. So, the leak could be an effort to pull back those suspicions until Mueller and his team have interviewed and investigated the entire spider web of those involved and/or implicated.
I suspect that there are few things Mueller et al do accidentally.
