Mike Flynn Admits Under Oath: No Evidence Of 2020 Election Fraud
It’s funny how being under oath can change one’s – uh, perspective.
CNN got hold of some of Flynn’s sworn deposition testimony in a defamation case by former Dominion Voting Systems executive Eric Coomer against Mike Flynn’s speaking tour company.
Q: Have you seen any evidence that you would consider credible, Mr. Flynn, that Eric Coomer played a role in rigging the 2020, presidential election? Yes or No.
A: I have not. No.
Q: Do you believe that Eric Coomer rigged the 2020 presidential election?
A: … No idea.
Q: Have you seen any evidence that makes you suspect that he rigged the 2020 presidential election?
A: No idea.
CNN reporter Zach Cohen explained why this is hugely significant: “This is really the first time Michael Flynn has said on the record that he has no evidence to back up, but was a key part of some of the election fraud claims that he and other Trump allies were trying to use as a pretext to overturn the 2020 election,” Cohen said. When Flynn drafted executive orders for Trump to have the military seize voting machines, the documents “specifically name checked Eric Coomer.”
Even after the deposition, Flynn told Chris Cuomo, on NewsNation, that the 2020 election was “filled with fraud and there’s all kinds of evidence that shows that.” But he was unable to provide details when asked for them.
