You should watch this to learn the facts about the case:

Also:

> "...the new disclosures demonstrate that Mueller’s prosecutors not only pressured Flynn with the possibility of indicting his son; they also secretly assured Flynn’s former counsel... that Flynn’s son would not be prosecuted if Flynn pleaded guilty. "

This is also more than a month old and a lot more facts have been released since then. Media simply not reporting them because it doesn't fit the narrative doesn't mean the facts aren't important.

Interrogators are allowed to lie. They threaten everyone. If this is grounds for releasing Flynn, they would have to release 2/3 of the people in prison.

I think it's disgusting that police are allowed to threaten and lie to you, but that's how it is for everyone in the US

So now you are justifying FBI's actions of threatening someone's son to coerce a guilty plea? Coercion into pleading guilty is what we all should be complaining about but seems like people are totally okay with it as long as it's against their political opponents which is disgusting.

I really don't think you are actually aware of the facts in this case (probably because you haven't read anything outside what the main stream media reports). I don't have the time to educate you on all the facts of such a long case. If you are really interested and in good faith, watch this playlist:

This is just from today:

I don't get my "facts" from random youtube videos and social media. It's a conspiracy theory. If you consider random social media the best evidence out there, you're being played
It's not random YouTube videos. The videos are from 3 highly credentialed lawyers. Catherine Herridge is also a credentialed journalist for CBS News. Even NPR has reported this. Yet you call everything which doesn't fit your political narrative "conspiracy theory".
