Admittedly not following it all very closely at all. What do you think it will implicate the Trump admin in actually doing? Influencing the election? The charges stem from a date post election. Why didn't Obama/Comey pull some shit on Flynn, who they actually disliked, while still in power? Ok - so if it's not influencing the election, what were they actually trying to accomplish? IANAL but won't they need to establish a motive - or is that already established as something else?

I do think you're exactly right - whatever has happened, has happened precisely to save Flynn's son some grief. I don't have the exact quote but it sounded like the investigation has been taking a monetary and emotional toll on the family. I just can't figure out what any of them were attempting to accomplish.
