Telling jim acosta tonight that a pardon for flynn is definitely not on the cards for now, but the fact is of course that could change over time. legally could the president? does he have the prerogative to pardon a michael flynn, for instance? right, it is certainly an interesting question. the president has very wide-ranging pardon power. so the president probably could pardon flynn. it is interesting sort of how robert mueller has played this, right. certainly there was a proffer agreement in which he explains, you know, lots michael flynn explained lots and lots of facts. now he s pled guilty. imagine the president pardons him. mueller s team could still hold him to the agreement. if he has been pardoned he no longer has a fifth amendment right to not talk. if he pardons flynn, he could still use the sworn grand jury or proffered testimony to get him to testify against all of the facts he has already revealed. this is sort of an interesting and pretty clever position ....

President went up to comey, pulled him aside, told other people to leave the room and said, you know, why don t you let this thing go. now you have to ask the question, why did the president do that? was it just because he thought flynn was a good guy and had been an early supporter, or was there something else there? you look at the statement of offense here. it is very detailed about these conversations. right. the white house position has been from the very beginning, the president didn t know about this, flynn was freelancing, et cetera. in fact, you look at the statement of offense and it describes flynn not only keeping the trump transition informed but senior persons in the trump transition directing him what to do with these conversations. right. and we know from our own reporting back in december when some of the stuff was happening, jim, we know that senior people inside the administration, inside the transition were managing not only this issue with the u.n. securi ....
