In around him. Welcome to morning joe. It is wednesday, december 19th, along with joe, willie and me. We have mike barnacle. Richard haass, columnist and associate editor for the Washington Post David Ignatius and former u. S. Attorney for the Northern District of alabama and an msnbc contributor joyce vance. So when weve been talking about how the institutions will hold up the institutions will be just fine. Weve talked about the Justice Department, weve talked about congress, weve talked about a lot of other things.

In all the noise youve been hearing today, i want to put up a i wantial tweet i had to fire to general flynn, because he lied to the Vice President and the fbi. Hes pled guilty to those lies. President trump himself a year ago saying he fired general flynn for lying to the fbi, acknowledging his guilty plea. Today flynn reaffirmed it. He did not complain, as the administration has about fbi entrapment, as argument that generalfully rejected. He said arguably you sold your country out. Now, he later walked that back, and he put off sentencing until march. So quite a day. Not a good one for claiming anyone claiming, as the white house did, that flynn was ambushed by the fbi.
