[Secret Memos] Did the FBI retaliate against Michael Flynn by launching Russia probe?
CIRCA ^

Posted on 06/26/2017 5:01:09 PM PDT by springwater13

The FBI launched a criminal probe against former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn two years after the retired Army general roiled the bureau’s leadership by intervening on behalf of a decorated counterterrorism agent who accused now-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe and other top officials of sexual discrimination, according to documents and interviews.

Flynn’s intervention on behalf of Supervisory Special Agent Robyn Gritz was highly unusual, and included a letter in 2014 on his official Pentagon stationary, a public interview in 2015 supporting Gritz’s case and an offer to testify on her behalf. His offer put him as a hostile witness in a case against McCabe, who was soaring through the bureau’s leadership ranks.

Also see #32. And here's yet another reason Flynn was not everyone's favorite in Washington: Michael Flynn’s tweet wasn’t actually about #PizzaGate, but his son is now defending the baseless conspiracy theory (Washington Post, December 5, 2016).

What is with the democrats and their war on women!?!?
__________________________________________________________

The democrat party has no room for anyone other than devout leftists. Leftists are degenerates. They are also liars.

Nothing comes out of a leftist’s mind/mouth on issues other than deceitful slogans meant only to confuse and confuddle the feelz of the truly stupid.

So, when the left claims it’s fighting for women, it means it’s preying on women. Same goes for homosexuals, minorities and children.

Leftism is destructionism.

The Constitution gives the federal government enormous power to start with and, given the willingness of states to concede even more there is no wonder that it has grown so powerful. It is war which has spurred much of the growth.
Add to that the People have approved or desired such growth and you are faced with an irresistible force.

October 2001 —> Patriot Act —> Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF)

JTTF formed command centers of CIA-FBI-State LEO-Local LEO.

CIA dominated JTTF

CIA retreads infiltrated FBI HQ

Schism formed between HQ FBI and Field FBI

Most Field FBI are still patriots

Draining the swamp will only be effective if one examines the previous Clinton/Bush/Obama administrations.
Vanity Fair (David Rose-June 2005): Whistle-blower-- AN INCONVENIENT PATRIOT
Love of country led Sibel Edmonds to become a translator for the F.B.I. following 9/11. But everything changed when she accused a colleague of covering up alleged illicit activity involving Turkish nationals. Fired after sounding the alarm, she’s now preparing a Supreme Court appeal—and threatening some very powerful people.

In Washington, D.C., and its suburbs, December 2, 2001, was fine but cool, the start of the slide into winter after a spell of unseasonable warmth. At 10 o’clock that morning, Sibel and Matthew Edmonds were still in their pajamas, sipping coffee in the kitchen of their waterfront town house in Alexandria, Virginia, and looking forward to a well-deserved lazy Sunday.

Since mid-September, nine days after the 9/11 attacks, Sibel had been exploiting her fluency in Turkish, Farsi, and Azerbaijani as a translator at the F.B.I. It was arduous, demanding work, and Edmonds—who had two bachelor’s degrees, was about to begin studying for a master’s, and had plans for a doctorate—could have been considered overqualified. But as a naturalized Turkish-American, she saw the job as her patriotic duty........

Didn’t Chuck Schumer make a threat against anyone who crosses the intelligence services?

Yep - he let a cat out of the bag - like Maxine Waters did when she blurted out how much info Obama had on people.

MSM version: Nothing to see here folks...

Hopefully the corruption is contained to a few positions and will get cleaned up quickly. Now if we can just get the CIA and the NSA to clean up their ranks we may be able to MAGA

It’s starting to unravel. But the MSM will keep it buried as long as they can.

I saw Sybel Edmonds’ testimony and she came off dumb as a box of rocks. Then she joined up with Ray McGovern and his Lyndon LaRouche fan club called VIPS and only reinforced the impression. VIPS was the group that was working with the Progressive Caucus to try to take out Cheney for a leak made by Powell aide Richard Armitage. They had a parallel group in the UK.
