I love this sentence.

Presumably, Mr. Flynn has sent an even angrier letter to major Trump donor and expected Nebraska gubernatorial candidate Charles Herbster, as if he has not done so, many might then presume that Attorney Binnall’s letter was intended to intimidate the author of Proof for political reasons, while sparing Mr. Herbster—the actual author of the claim Mr. Flynn now complains of, but also a major ally of former Flynn boss Donald Trump—any inconvenience whatsoever.

That was a good one.

I don't think I've ever been privileged to read such a complete and notated retraction prior to this!!

Let's hope those boys can resolve their inconsistencies soon! I'm thinking that a quick review of their cellphone location tracking would do it but I'm just a woman...

Keep On Rocking It Seth!

We Appreciate the Work and Appreciate You!!

Masterfully done, Seth! In publishing Flynn's lawyer's new letter to you denying Flynn was present at the Jan. 5 Trump Hotel private residence meeting, you've both carefully restated what your original article did and did not say based on Herbster's account, and taken the opportunity to lay out once again just how deeply and fully Flynn shares responsibility for so much that led up to the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.

And Flynn knows he’s toast by now. One would hope. His attorney was not prepared for Seth’s through response ... my thoughts anyways.

Incisive. Accurate. Documented. Love it. Lawyers who play politics and intimidation should be better prepared when they're going up against you! Wonder if there's any connection between Flynn et al. and the CJR hit piece author.....

"This is the language that [I/was] previously published at Proof" for "This is the language that previously published at Proof"

"has" for "have" in "as his involvement in these events have been documented"

Another honest post! Thanks, Seth.

Keep up the great work Seth, regardless of the slander being thrown at you by dishonest parties. Your work is the best refutation of that criticism, as nobody I read is so meticulous in sourcing and citing their information.

Keep up the good work Seth. To be bringing out the haters means you are on the right track. Also - wasn’t there a photo of Flynn on the 5th? I’m sure I saw one.

If Flynn said they were trying to exert pressure on Congress, wouldn’t that be considered election tampering?

Thank you so very much for all you do to collect and spread the truth and, most especially, for continuing your live-stack for Day 4 following the attacks on your brilliant work!

Despicable Flynn. Lying. Again.

As far as Flynn's concerned, "me thinks he doth protest too much". Thank you for the hard work.
