Whatever else Flynn's arrest may be, it was not

entrapment. To entrap someone, you have to basically convince them to commit a crime. If you put up a billboard that said, "Caution, highway patrol does not monitor or enforce speed limits, next 30 miles" and then pulled over speeders, that's entrapment. You induce them to commit a crime.
Asking someone to answer a question and then seeing if they lie is not entrapment. Even if you contemplate telling them you already know the answer before you ask the question.

He was coerced to plea guilty to lying to the FBI.

Those FBI agents who questioned him at the Whitehouse reported that they did not believe he had lied to them. Reports say the FBI threatened Flynn's son who had a newborn to get Flynn's confession.

His son was his chiefof staff and was possibly to be charged

in addition with his father. That adds more context than the fact he had a newborn.

Why do you imagine they didn't charge the kid?

Was it possibly because his daddy plead guilty to lying after the FBI finding nothing to charge the dad with?

He lied to the FBI.

He was wiretapped ina phone meeting with a Russian. He said he didn’t have the meeting. He got caught. If you lied and then plead guilty to it.

He had already failed to disclose his foreign relationships, and the FBI had plans for if he admitted that or if he lied when confronted about it. It's baffling how much of what happened you choose to ignore.

Swing and a miss. Timeline goes like this:
May 1, 2020, 4:07 PM
|
|
- Investigation of Flynn. - Nothing found. - Concocted last ditch effort to get him on something. - Interviewed him. - He said something open to interpretation. - They said he lied. - He said he didn't. - They threatened his son if he didn't confess. - He confessed.
He has neither committed nor been accused of any crime, other than the lie to the FBI, which was not a lie but a coerced confession of one. The national police did this for political reasons. If all this happened in Peru we would call it a coup attempt.
Do you really not see that?

Flynn met with russian
May 2, 2020, 3:46 PM

The FBI knew he met with Russian. The FBI debated whether to tell him they knew before they asked him about it. They chose not to. They asked. He said no. They had him on tape in a wiretap. Not entrapment.

True. I wonder if anyone said something to Flynn after he chanted LOCK HER UP! to a bunch of Trumpers in 2016.

Because Flynn publicly called ISIS "radical jihadists". This was counter to the pc culture of the Obama administration. Remember Obamas remark about ISIS being the JV team? Looks like Flynn was right.
