McCabe v. General Mike Flynn
American Spectator ^ | 3/23/2018 | George Parry

Posted on 03/24/2018 12:38:24 PM PDT by ninenot

For fifteen years, [Robyn Gritz] devoted her life to investigating the September 11, 2001 Al Qaeda attack on the Pentagon, helping to rescue Western hostages and tracking down global terrorists. She was detailed to the CIA and worked closely with the Defense Intelligence Agency, which was led by General Michael Flynn.

Throughout this time, her FBI bosses gave her excellent or outstanding performance reviews.

But in 2012 her career hit a brick wall when she began working for Special Agent Andrew McCabe and his leadership team. It was then that she received her first negative performance rating and was subsequently forced to resign from the FBI.

In 2013, she filed an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) complaint against her FBI supervisors alleging sexual discrimination and hostile work environment. In 2014, she amended her complaint by averring that she suffered “a hostile [work] environment, defamation of character through continued targeting by Andrew McCabe.”

If you've puzzled over WHY the FBI (and Mueller) have a several-year HATE for Gen. Mike Flynn, the linked essay will tell you exactly why.

In brief: Flynn is NOT part of the Deep State.

Flynn (and Gritz) defeated them in her EEOC case; ground them into the dust and left not one stone upon another.

One could even speculate that THIS background is the reason that Flynn's sentencing was delayed by an upright Fed judge.

Whenever you hear bi-partisan support for a bureaucrat, you KNOW that he is secretly a Dem. The Dem politicians would fight and disparage anyone who is truly independent. Dem politicians said that Fitzpatrick (Special Counsel looking into Plame case), Comey and McCabe all were great ethical men who were “straight shooters.” Again, whenever a Dem pol praises a guy, you can KNOW that the guy is a Dem.

I have been in a similar situation as Gritz. And I think it would be safe to say that most of us have been unfairly man-handled to the point of being slandered or fired from a job or other situations.

McCabe was known as a jerk and a climber not caring who he stepped on to get where he wanted to go and brought in anything to make others look bad in order for him to reach another rung on the ladder.

No wonder McCabe was working so hard for Hillary.

We need to count our lucky stars she did not become president. She would have been the capstone to a whole network of McCabes and Comeys - a lot like Germany of the 1930s and 40s.

And she would have given us the "gift" of WWIII.

FLASHBACK: Former FBI Agent Speaks Out: 'I Was Not Protected (McCabe Victim Robyn Gritz)

WOW.

From the article:
"Despite his underlings’ concerns, McCabe’s plan of retaliation against Flynn proceeded apace. According to Joseph diGenova, the newest member of President Trump’s legal team, McCabe set up Flynn for the interview that led to the general’s indictment for lying to the FBI.

DiGenova is the former United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, former Independent Counsel to the United States, and former Counsel to the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (the Church Committee which years ago dismembered the U.S. intelligence community). In other words, he is part of the D.C. establishment and presumably has connections and reliable sources in and around the FBI and Department of Justice.

In an article in the February 2018 edition of Hillsdale College’s Imprimis magazine, diGenova lays out a sordid summary of the Comey FBI’s fake investigation of Hillary Clinton’s unsecure private email server and the efforts by the FBI and DOJ to “frame Trump.” Entitled “The Politicization of the FBI,” diGenova’s article is well worth reading.

As for McCabe’s retaliation against Flynn, diGenova offers the following:

Significantly, [FBI Special Agent Peter] Strzok also led the interview of General Michael Flynn that ended in Flynn pleading guilty to making false statements to the FBI. It is important to recall that Flynn’s FBI interview was not conducted under the authority of the special counsel, but under that of Comey and McCabe. It took place during Inauguration week in January 2017. Flynn had met with the same agents the day before regarding security clearances. McCabe called Flynn and asked if agents could come to the White House. Flynn agreed, assuming it was about personnel. It was not.

Flynn had been overheard on a FISA wiretap talking to Russia’s Ambassador to the United States, Sergey Kislyak. There was nothing criminal or even unusual about the fact of such discussion. Flynn was on the Trump transition team and was a federal employee as the President-Elect’s national security advisor. It was his job to be talking to foreign leaders. Flynn was not charged with regard to anything said during his conversation with Kislyak. So why was the FBI interrogating Flynn about legal conduct? What more did the FBI need to know? I am told by sources that when Flynn’s indictment was announced, McCabe was on a video conference call — cheering!"

Just wow. So, there was a discrepancy about the date that this call took place, and that is what McCabe nailed him on, destroyed his finances and reputation, and he CHEERED!"

These people are at war with us. People like Comey, Brennan, Strozk, Ohr, McAuliffe, Obama, Hillary, Clapper, MUELLER AND MCCABE. Not to mention the entire Media. They would destroy us in a heartbeat and on a whim, in much the same way they destroyed General Flynn and this woman in the linked article. We had best get our minds right with this, because a one-sided war is not a war, but a slaughter.

No speculation at all. This IS the reason it was delayed. It was delayed because they KNOW it is going to fall apart. It is going to be vacated. I have no doubt.

My head’s right and my powder’s dry. I know we have domestic enemies. I know they abound in our government, in our schools, in our press and in our media. I’m ready for the showdown.

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.

Same here, FRiend! But -- at my age, unless somebody rushes things, I may just get to miss it...

Nonethless, I'm still getting in my range time -- with a wide variety of hardware... (Even the feeble can pull a well-honed trigger...) '-)

The Special Counsel law requires that a specific crime to be investigated has to be in the document appointing the Special Counsel. From what I have read the appointment by Rosenstein did NOT specify any crime since “collusion” is not a crime. Why doesn’t diGenova simply file a motion to show cause that the Special Counsel has the proper authority to act? The Special Counsel law is not a license to go fishing for a crime.

I’m surprised that in that entire article there is no mention that when McCabe saw and jumped into the chance for vengeance against Flynn, he stated to someone (Stzrock?), “We are going to f**k Flynn; and then we’re going to f**k Trump!” “WE” being himself and Comey.

Yep - and we need to not throw Trump under the bus now because if we do, it will soon be as if Hillary had won.....
