BREAKING: Declassified Susan Rice Email Confirms Michael Flynn Was Personally Targeted In Oval Office Meeting
The Federalist ^ | 5/19/2020 | SEAN DAVIS

Newly declassified portions of a key Susan Rice email confirm that Michael Flynn was personally targeted during a January 5 Oval Office meeting with Obama.

Michael Flynn was personally targeted during a crucial Jan. 5, 2017 Oval Office meeting arranged by then-President Barack Obama, a newly declassified document shows.

On Jan. 20, 2017, as President Donald Trump was being inaugurated, former White House National Security Adviser Susan Rice sent herself a bizarre email detailing the Jan. 5 meeting between her, Obama, then-Vice President Joe Biden, then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, and fired former Federal Bureau of Investigations Director James Comey. In the email, portions of which were not declassified until recently, Rice recorded that Flynn, who at the time was the incoming national security adviser for Trump, was personally discussed and targeted during the meeting with Obama.

“From a national security perspective, President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.” At the time, the Obama administration was actively spying on members of the Trump team as part of its Crossfire Hurricane investigation against Trump.

“Comey said he does have some concerns that incoming NSA Flynn is speaking frequently with Russian Ambassador Kislyak,” Rice wrote in a portion of the email that was only recently declassified. “Comey said that could be an issue as it relates to sharing sensitive information.”

“President Obama asked if Comey was saying the NSC should not pass sensitive information related to Russia to Flynn,” Rice continued. “Comey replied ‘potentially.'”

“[Comey] added that he has no indication thus far that Flynn has passed classified information to Kislyak, ..

Here is the latest from BDAnon:

5/20/20(Wed)16:33
Over the next few weeks a number of things I predicted a long time ago in a galaxy far far away will come to pass. With all that is happening do not lose sight of why it is Obama had such an urgency to get Flynn. Flynn was in the intelligence community when documents started to surface that suggested Obama was born in Germany and planted in America to develop into a Manchurian Candidate. He was born near Frankfort Germany and was mentored by folks close to Soros for a number of years and the mentoring continued into his upbringing in the United States and included the selection of Michelle as his wife. All of the loose ends in his earlier life were scrubbed by several associates of John Brennan. The scrubbing was severe enough to compare favorably to the efforts to remove both Seth Rich and Epstein. In fact the same individual involved in those two actions were responsible for the actions in Frankfurt. To make a long story short Flynn got wind of what was going on and files hidden by Brennan turned up missing and were thought by Obama and Brennan to be in the custody of Flynn. What they never knew is Flynn never had those files and those files were taken and hidden by others. In addition Rich`s murderer in Israel had files he uncovered for his own safety. Those files are now secured and if necessary will become public before the November election. They are safely stored in a location out of control of the government. Sadly Barr is afraid to go there because of the fear of open revolt in the Country. Instead his bet is that indictments of such persons as Comey and Brennan and others will do the trick. He is hoping to shame both Obama and Biden and flipping folks. Given the events in Venezuela that are forthcoming it is better to share this now. Later

On January 4, 2017, FBI investigators reported that they had found ZERO derogatory information about Flynn and stated their intention to close its “Crossfire Razor” investigation of Flynn.

On January 5, 2017, Comey told Obama he was concerned about the number of calls Flynn was making, but acknowledged that the FBI had no evidence that Flynn was leaking anything to the Russkies. They were, after all, monitoring his communications. The “no evidence” pronouncement reveals that Comey was aware of the January 4, 2017 report, but it conflicted with what he preferred to believe.

Did Comey have any factual basis to justify further scrutiny of Flynn? No.

But is it okay to spread disinformation in an illegitimate counterintelligence operation? And who is the authority tasked with sorting it all out?

Wheels withing wheels...

** Neither is naturally an American as they were born with divided citizenship, loyalties and allegiances, the very thing the founders were preventing with the natural born citizen clause. **

The political class has decided it will not be bound by that part of the constitution. The courts can’t even read & correctly interpret the English language. And the Media has decided it would rather be the propaganda arm of 1 of the 2 major parties. Won’t be long now before the civil society crumbles and we’re like Venezuala-North.

If they can decide not to be bound by that part, they can decide to not be bound by any of it.

Words have meaning or the Constitution is an illusion.

You got it. Now it’s mail-in ballots, same day registration, and we’ll count the votes until the D’s win. White-out another section of the parchment.

“President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.”

Not your call, Jug Ears. That belongs to the American people.

"[W]e are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia."

They had no derogatory info on Trump or Flynn and wouldn't find any after another three years for PDJT's impeachment. These 1/5/2017 oval meeting minutes (transcribed to email only weeks later) are the words of a political fishing expedition. There was no predicate, no probable cause for even an investigation, outside of Barry's animus from 2014, when he fired Flynn for differences on Iraq. No one should even have to say that was illegitimate as a basis for the then-current targeting of Flynn.

When solicited, the strongest words Comey can devise are "Flynn is speaking frequently with Russian Ambassador Kislyak... the level of communication is unusual...no indication thus far that Flynn has passed sensitive information to Kislyak.." One can almost hear Comey's muscles straining as he tries to deliver something that will kiss up to his boss. His remarks wouldn't merit mention at all outside a group of conspirators with a preconceived entrapment mindset. There's certainly no predicate for a National Security surveillance discussion and swinging "the billion-dollar intel apparat" into action."

They way Team Obama was "engag[ing].. the incoming team was with a lying FISA warrant based on Steele's wholly unverified and unbelieved dossier and the mendacious claim that Carter Page was a foreign agent.

Barry was receiving from Strzok and Lisa P regular information about what Crossfire Hurricane was delivering and Evelyn Farkas made clear how far and wide Trump Team surveillance, FISA surveillance results and PDB information were newly being disseminated to Dem political operatives, many within the Clinton campaign. Farkas seemed fearful of Trump's Team would discover the dems methods.

Public information makes clear Carter Page had worked for the FBI and CIA, yet was never a double agent for the Russians. Papadopoulos was never a foreign agent and was only planted with information from Downer and by our own FBI-influenced assets. (If either Carter Page or Papadopoulos had been suspected of actually being a Russian spy, we would long ago have heard there was a 500-page surveillance record of Page-Russian contacts.) Calling Carter Page a foreign agent in a FISA application was a potentially criminal representation.

No, this 1/5 oval group was made up of coup conspirators.

AG Barr says no prosecutions. None. Seems the democrat presidents are above the law.

Does anyone notice how the name Carter Page seems to have disappeared from the Earth. He needs to be brought back into this discussion. Of course, I won’t be satisfied until I know who killed Seth Rich. What I do know is that they are all tied together.
