Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, pardoned by President Donald Trump, is thanking “every single patriot” who supported him.
His comments came in a column posted by Uncoverdc on Thursday. He was pardoned on Wednesday just as a federal judge was deciding whether to grant a Justice Department request to dismiss the prosecution despite Flynn's own guilty plea to lying to the FBI about his Russian contacts.
Flynn wrote: “Almighty God’s grace and with the love and courage of my wife Lori, the strength and fortitude of our families, and the inspiration of our friends and every single patriot who circled me with their prayers, wisdom, and kindness, I say thank you from the bottom of my heart.
“For the first time in more than four years and because of my fearless attorney, Sidney Powell, the Guardian Angel of American Justice, and thousands of good people with endless energy rallying together on my behalf, I breathe freedom and liberty today.”
And he said: ”Never again should any family or individual be so viciously targeted, maligned, smeared, and threatened such has been the experience of my family and I. Not you and your loved ones, not me nor President Trump, our First Lady, and the Trump children.”
He vowed to dust himself off and not be afraid of what lies ahead.
Flynn added: We may be tested again with false accusations and untruths and hatred for our beliefs and for raising our voices but we cannot be deterred and we cannot stop.
“Time does not always heal all wounds, but discovering the truth has a funny way of shaping the scars.”
