Gen. Michael T. Flynn “The Character Assassination of an American Patriot”

Published

May 22, 2020

How can our country let this travesty of justice happen?

When Barack Hussein Obama, 44th President of The United States was welcoming in President Elect Donald J. Trump, there was something subtle but telling in their conversation, although in hindsight monumental. President Obama warned President Elect Trump of two things. 1) Kim Jong-Un 2) General Michael T. Flynn former Director of Intelligence under President Obama. Looking back you would ask why would President Obama mention General Flynn, a decorated war hero, in the same breathe as Kim Jong-Un, the ruthless despot dictator of North Korea, who off and on, on occasion threatens to blow up the United States? Once uncovered that Michael Flynn bumped heads with the Obama administration over the strategy and tactics in combating ISIS, domestic spying, the Iran deal and other security issues it makes sense. So as they say Flynn knows where the bodies are buried so it behooved Obama to silence the man who knew too much.

Once Gen. Flynn was designated as public enemy #1 in that infamous January 2017 oval office meeting with President Obama and his top officials including Vice President Joe Biden, Flynn was a dead man walking. On his way out the door President Obama expanded the powers of the NSA world wide to more easily share intelligence. What that did was trigger felonious classified information leaking on Trump campaign officials like never before to establish a nefarious narrative that Trump and his administration were working with the Russians. If you had Russian salad dressing on your salad it would be leaked to the media, and then portrayed as the most dangerous salad in existence to be taken down by a highly lethal Navy SEAL Team. This worked beautifully with full complete and gleeful cooperation of the media.

An important note. There was never any Russian collusion, and 53 Obama administration officials and Intelligence agents testified under oath that they never saw or possessed any derogatory information on the Trump campaign and Russia as it pertains to any illegalities. No collusion, no obstruction. But on television they all would lie and say Trump is definitely working with Putin. General Flynn’s investigation was also being dropped for lack of derogatory information until FBI agent Peter Strzok desperately petitioned to keep the investigation of Flynn open. Now we see this move was to manufacture something, anything negative to take down General Flynn.

Flynn was hired as National Security Director by President Trump. This set off alarm bells within the Obama administration. Within days FBI Director James Comey sent over to the Whitehouse 2 agents to interview General Flynn as he was under investigation. But the agents were sent over, breaking normal protocols and disguising the investigation interview as just a friendly chat. Flynn was told by Andy MccAbe the FBI #2 that he did not need to notify Whitehouse counsel or summon any legal representation. Mind you at this ponit, General Flynn had been investigated, cleared, spied on and unmasked and had not committed any crimes. General Flynn did nothing wrong or illegal within his job as a Trump administration official or private citizen.

The Whitehouse interview was to be used to say Flynn lied or did something illegal. But at that time even the two FBI agents Joe Pientka and Peter Strzok said they thought Flynn was being truthful. Once Robert Mueller Special Counsel came on the scene then all of a sudden Flynn was charged with misleading the FBI even though the agents said initially he was being truthful. The FBI 302’s notes of the original interview have been lost and subsequent notes altered. The FBI had the Flynn call transcript with Russian official Kislyak and were fully abreast of the conversation but were trying to get Flynn to make some misstatements this is known as a perjury trap. If you get a date wrong as George Papadopoulos you could be charged with perjury during an FBI interview. In all of the reporting I’ve seen on this I never hear it explained that Gen. Flynn talked with almost 30 countries in 24 hours. If I talk to 30 different world leaders in 24 hours while I am on vacation I don’t think every word with every leader would be engraved in my memory. From the January oval office meeting Bill Priestep, FBI lawyer had notes that read, “what is our goal with Flynn, to get him to lie so we can prosecute him or to get him fired?” The last time I looked FBI agents weren’t in the business of getting people fired. This was a classic witch hunt.

General Flynn’s legal team was from the law firm of former Attorney General under President Obama his so called wing man Eric Holder. So Flynn was not in good hands. His legal team made a deal with the prosecution to make a plea deal in exchange for not prosecuting Flynn’s son who had a four month old baby at the time. So Flynn had over 2 million dollars in legal fees, sold his house and staring at the prospect of having his family prosecuted. So facing this seemingly insurmountable challenge Flynn plead guilty because he was bankrupt and to save his family. I never see this explained on most newscasts.

In comes the heroine, famed lawyer and best selling author Sydney Powell. She pushed for Brady material (exculpatory evidence) that was illegally withheld from Flynn. Once the evidence came out that exonerated Flynn he withdrew his guilty plea and with the grace of GOD the DOJ under AG Bill Barr dropped the charges. Now a rogue judge Emmitt Sullivan is pulling a hail mary stunt to let in friends of the court try to argue against Flynn. This is highly immoral and unethical by the judge. There is no precedence to what he is doing. Only a prosecutor can prosecute not a judge. Powell filed a motion in circuit court to strike down this attempt by the judge to prosecute a dropped case. The court ruled that Judge Emmitt Sullivan has until June 1st to explain to the court why he is taking this extraordinary action. No matter what happens, President Trump will see General Flynn a free man but will let the case play out and hopefully the court will eventually honor the dismissal of the case. News@11

Bannon An ‘Oppurtunist’ – Trump Jr & Newt Gingrich

(Via Zerohedge)

In the course of less than a day, former Trump strategist Steve Bannon has gone from simply “former Trump strategist” to “radioactive backstabber,” after The Guardian reported that Bannon, in Michael Wolff’s new book “Fire and Fury, called a June 2016 meeting at Trump tower involving Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya “treasonous” and “unpatriotic.”

“Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic, or bad shit, and I happen to think it’s all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately.”

In response, President Trump issued a four-paragraph scorching reply, saying Bannon had “lost his mind.” Donald Trump Jr. also responded, calling his father’s former chief strategist “backstabbing, harassing, leaking, lying & undermining the President,” adding “Steve is not a strategist, he is an opportunist.”

Steve had the honor of working in the White House & serving the country. Unfortunately, he squandered that privilege & turned that opportunity into a nightmare of backstabbing, harassing, leaking, lying & undermining the President. Steve is not a strategist, he is an opportunist

— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) January 3, 2018

Newt Gingrich chimed in on Fox News, telling Neil Cavuto, “I think that Bannon thinks he’s extraordinarily important. But the fact is, Trump had won the nomination without Bannon. Trump would have won the presidency without Bannon. And Trump has governed without Bannon.”

So I think there’s an exaggerated sense of who Steve is. And I think, remember, this is a guy who got fired. So you have a guy who has been fired who is trying to claim a bunch of things, which he apparently did not claim at the time.

And I think you have to just say, you know, it’s noise. It has nothing to do with — the things that matter to America and the things that matter to the American people have no relationship to the kind of noise that we’re going to spend all day today with.

And luckily for the president, he’s really come to distinguish between the things that matter and the things that don’t. The meeting this weekend at Camp David matters with the Republican leadership. Steve Bannon saying a bunch of junk doesn’t really matter in the long run. It will disappear. -Newt Gingrich

Trump Jr. also replied to a tweet by conservative pundit Bill Mitchell, which quotes a portion of Bannon’s book, reading:

“On Election Night, when the unexpected trend , Trump might actually win, seemed confirmed, Don Jr. told a friend that his father, or DJT, as he calls him, looked as if he had seen a ghost. Melania was in tears—and not of joy.”

Trump Jr. responded: “Another good one. Anyone who knows me or follows me knows that’s about as far from something I would say or how I speak as possible… What a joke.”

Another good one. Anyone who knows me or follows me knows that's about as far from something I would say or how I speak as possible… What a joke.😂 https://t.co/4L9rYK8W56

— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) January 3, 2018

And earlier in the day, Trump Jr. tweeted “Andrew Breitbart would be ashamed of the division and lies Steve Bannon is spreading!,” after tweeting “Wow, just looked at the comments section on Breitbart. Wow. When Bannon has lost Breitbart, he’s left with . . . umm, nothing.”

Andrew Breitbart would be ashamed of the division and lies Steve Bannon is spreading!

— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) January 3, 2018

Wow, Just looked at the comments section on Breitbart. Wow. When Bannon has lost Breitbart, he’s left with . . . umm, nothing.

— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) January 3, 2018

And now, it appears as though Bannon may have lost any hope of cobbling together political capital. As US News reports;

Despite his blatant miscalculation and the animosity he stirred among traditional Republicans, Bannon’s enduring influence was that he purportedly had a direct line to Trump – the White House confirmed they spoke by phone last month – and could help mold the president’s thoughts on policy and political strategy.

Now, that line appears lacerated.

“Now that he is on his own, Steve is learning that winning isn’t as easy as I make it look,” Trump said in the statement. “Steve doesn’t represent my base – he’s only in it for himself.”

The extraordinary breakup between the two larger-than-life comrades led to immediate fallout across the Republican Party. GOP leadership rejoiced at Bannon’s fall from grace, with allies of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell reveling in and sharing the president’s takedown.

Bannon’s split from the Trumps puts wealthy GOP donor Robert Mercer and his daughter, Rebekah Mercer in an awkward spot – as the financier have financially supported Breitbart, while also supporting President Trump and his GOP causes. Mercer announced in November that he was selling his stake in his company to his daughters – while at the time, making it clear that while he occasionally discusses politics with Bannon, he’s not always aligned with him.

And as Trump Jr. said earlier today – when Bannon has lost Breitbart, “he’s left with … ummm, nothing.”

In September, Bannon appeared on 60 minutes where heb called himself a “street fighter” and “declared war on the GOP” for trying to “nullify the election.” Bannon also said that the Trump administration made the “original sin” of embracing the establishment. “I mean, we totally embraced the establishment … Because ya had to staff a government.”

Bannon also said he was going to be Trump’s “wing man outside for the entire time, to protect [Trump] and to “make sure his enemies know that there’s no free shot on goal.”

Well – it looks like Bannon just took a shot on his own goal, and will be cast into radioactive irrelevancy for time immemorial.

Blexit / WalkAway: Majority of Non-White Voters Plan To Vote Republican in Iowa’s 1st District According to NYT Poll

In what seems to be a testament against a “blue wave”, according to a NYT poll taken back in September, it shows that 45% of non-white participants, the majority, plan to vote Republican. With 42% voting Democrat are 13% undecided. Non-white people were 7% of those polled entirely.

What also is interesting is it shows 52% white people voting Democrat, with 37% voting Republican, and 11% Undecided. Showing a higher rate of non white people voting for Republicans than white people.

Now overall this poll also showed Abby trouncing Blum, and while we disagree with the polling numbers to that extent because it seems that they may have over sampled Democrats, although we can’t tell because the poll data does not show party affiliation.

No matter how you frame it, it shows the media’s race baiting narrative hasn’t worked in Iowa’s first district as much as they hoped and non white people are a powerful force within the Republican party.

This past Friday Bill Maher brought on a “questionable” guest as his first on his show ‘Real Time’ on HBO. The guest in question —, is a known Vaccine Skeptic. It was quickly noticeable from the crowd reaction, which is usually sporadically either clapping or laughing, often mocked by Bill himself, was very quiet and toned down, most likely thrown off guard. This issue, like many Bill champions on his show, are issues he prides as fringe on both sides of the aisle, the far-left and far-right often being huge skeptic of establishment Scientist and Doctor opinions.
