*'''15 February.''' First Flynn 302 completed; revised May 31, 2018 after Mueller appointment.<ref>https://t.co/c3tX2Rz8wf </ref> Within the case against Michael Flynn, prosecutor Brandon Van Grack later filed a cover letter attempting to explain the reason for the Flynn interview on January 24th, 2017, and a delay in the official filing of the interview notes (FD-302) on February 15th, 2017, and then another edit on May 31st, 2017.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/mueller-cover-flynn-doc-1.jpg</ref> What the special counsel appeared to be obfuscating was a process of deliberation within the investigative unit, headed by FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, surrounding the specific wording of the 302 report on the Flynn interview.  Likely how best to word the FBI notes for maximum damage. In late 2018 Prosecutor Brandon Van Grack was attempting to hide the length of the small group deliberations within the FBI. It appears Van Grack did not want the court to know Andrew McCabe was involved in shaping how the Flynn-302 was written. To explain the FBI delay, Van Grack claimed the FD-302 report “inadvertently” had a header saying “DRAFT DOCUMENT/DELIBERATIVE MATERIAL.” However, there was a deliberative process in place, seemingly all about how to best position the narrative, as seen in the Feb. 14 Lisa Page and Peter Strzok text messages. The Michael Flynn FD-302 was officially entered into the record on February 15th, 2017, per the report.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/flynn-fbi-notes-2.jpg</ref> The interview took place on January 24th, 2017. The FD-302 was drafted on January 24th, and then later edited, shaped, and ultimately approved by McCabe, on February 14th, then entered into the official record on February 15th. It was a deliberative document from the outset. Thanks to the Strzok/Page text messages we know the cover letter from the Special Counsel is misleading.  The Feb 15th, 2017, date was the day after McCabe approved it. May 17th, 2017, Robert Mueller was assigned as special Counsel. Then, the FD-302 report was re-entered on May 31st, 2017, removing the header; paving the way for Mueller’s team to use the content therein. Flynn didn’t lie; but the McCabe crew jumped on the opportunity to frame a lose/lose. Either Flynn accepts a version of the 302 report where he lied; or, Flynn has to take the position that Vice President Mike Pence lied to the nation in the CBS ''Face The Nation'' interview. After Andrew Weissmann and Mueller enter the picture, they need to force Flynn to admit to the construct of the 302 as presented. The second scope memo was issued by Rod Rosenstein to Robert Mueller on October 20th, 2017.  The transparent intent of the second scope memo was to provide Weissmann and Mueller with ammunition and authority to investigate specific targets, for specific purposes.  One of those targets was General Michael Flynn’s son, Michael Flynn Jr.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/mueller-report-scope-memo-october-20-2017-flynn-jr.jpg</ref><ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/mueller-report-scope-memo-october-20-2017-flynn-jr-crop.jpg</ref>  This second scope memo allowed Weissmann and Mueller to target tangentially related persons and entities bringing in Michael Cohen, Richard Gates, Roger Stone and Michael Flynn Jr.  Additionally this memo established the authority to pursue “jointly undertaken activity“. The four identified targets within the original July 2016 investigation, “Operation Crossfire Hurricane”, were George Papadopoulos, Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort and Carter Page.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2019/01/hpsci-russian-active-measures-v2.jpg</ref> General Flynn was under investigation from the outset in mid-2016. The fraudulent FBI counterintelligence operation, established by CIA Director John Brennan, had Flynn as one of the early targets when Brennan handed the originating electronic communication “EC” to FBI Director James Comey on/around July 31st, 2016. The investigation of General Flynn never stopped throughout 2016 and led to the second investigative issue of his phone call with Russian Ambassador Kislyak.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/flynn-mueller-report-mary-mccord-and-james-comey.jpg</ref> In combination with the October 2017 timing, the addition of Flynn Jr to the target list relates to the ongoing 2016/2017 investigation of his father for: (1) possible conspiracy with a foreign government; (2) unregistered lobbying; (3) materially false statements and omissions on 2017 FARA documents; and (4) lying to the FBI. This October 20th, 2017, request from Weissmann and Mueller aligns with the time-frame were special counsel team lawyers Brandon L. Van Grack and Zainab N. Ahmad were prosecuting Michael Flynn and cornering him into a guilty plea. Getting Rosenstein to authorize adding Mike Flynn Jr. to the target list (scope memo #2) meant the special counsel could threaten General Flynn with the indictment of his son as a co-conspirator tied to the Turkish lobbying issue (which they did) if he doesn’t agree to a plea: “jointly undertaken activity“. Forcing a plea for ‘lying to investigators” by threatening prosecution for FARA violations was the identical strategy used against George Papadopoulos and Michael Flynn. The October 20th, 2017, expanded scope memo authorized Mueller to start demanding records, phones, electronic devices and other evidence from Mike Flynn Jr, and provided the leverage Weissmann wanted.  After all, Mike Flynn Jr. had a four month old baby. The amount of twisted pressure from this corrupt team of prosecutors is sickening.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/04/28/sally-yates-vs-michael-flynn/</ref>  A month later, General Flynn was signing a plea agreement.<ref>https://theconservativetreehouse.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/flynn-plea-1.jpg</ref>
