Lee Smith: Deep State Used ‘Criminal Conspiracy’ to Stop Flynn’s Audit of Intelligence Agencies
Breitbart ^ | 25 Oct 2019 | ROBERT KRAYCHIK

Posted on 10/26/2019 8:45:22 AM PDT by Hojczyk

A multifaceted “criminal conspiracy” to destroy former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn was launched by persons across the national security state apparatus to prevent audits of intelligence agencies’ operations, said Lee Smith, author of The Plot Against the President: The True Story of How Congressman Devin Nunes Uncovered the Biggest Political Scandal in U.S. History,

“When General Flynn was coming to the White House, [he] was talking about conducting an audit across the intelligence community,” Smith explained. “He recognized the amount of waste [and] the amount of money that had been misspent. He knew what people were doing. He knew that people were hiding these things in different black programs, and he was going to look and start to inspect budgets.”

Smith continued, “He was going to get the entire senior intelligence service to hand in their resignations. Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean he was going to fire everyone. What it means, though, is he wanted everyone to prove what they were doing, that they were doing their jobs, they were doing good for the country, they weren’t wasting money, they weren’t wasting time, and they weren’t running operations like the one they ran against General Flynn.”

“The intelligence community, at that point — what has correctly and colorfully became known as the deep state — they rose nearly as one and they realized that General Flynn was an existential threat,” assessed Smith. “He was actually going to start looking at their budgets and start looking at what they did. They had to find a way to fight him.”

I hope Sidney Powell and her group are paying attention. (I expect they are.)

“A republic . . . if you can keep it.”

It took awhile but it is coming to fruition that we cannot.

The contemptuous vile proclivities lurking in men’s souls are overtaking the better angels of our nature.

This sounds more like deflection to me. This is creating a non-criminal alternate story for the Intel Community to go after Flynn, different from the massive Internal surveillance operation the Deep state was conducting upon Trump.... potentially directed and approved by Obama. The author states that Flynn “was starting to think about” an audit. That is many battlefields short of the extensive operations Intel was carrying out and had in place. The upshot is that this insulates Obama as one who was the potential director and approver of the intel operations we know that were going on.

Well this really makes sense. Not the BS cover story from the fake news. If indeed this is true, many people will be in prison. It’s the “Seven Days In May” come to life.

They did to Flynn what they’ve been hoping to do to Trump...to stop the investigations into THEIR crimes.

Does anyone else remember that it was King Barack I who decreed in the last days of his rule that all information could be shared across the 17 intel agencies?
His EO seemed curious at the time, but now we know that the plot to remove President Trump was underway throughout the transition, having originated during the Trump campaign, and many agencies were participating in the plot
This action of President Obama tells us he was certainly involved in the attempted coup.

They didn’t label the CIA budget a ‘Black Hole’ budget for nothing.

Massive Funding goes in and no telling where it gets shot off to or to who.. much like a Pentagon budget.

OOdles go in, noodles come out.

Give him the job and get out of his way. Flynn is what you might call “motivated.”

The cure for this behavior is Public Executions and lots of 'em.

With Obama essentially firing LTG Flynn as head of DIA, I can see that this is very possibly true after the President brought LTG Flynn in as his national security adviser. And especially if Flynn wanted to ‘clean house’ of the intelligence agencies.
