RICE’S TESTIMONY

...”And so, when General Flynn was named to his role, we were actually in the
midst of the President’s last foreign trip to Greece, Germany, and Peru. As soon
as we returned from that trip, I reached out to try to introduce myself to General
Flynn and to congratulate him and to offer any and all support that we could
provide. I offered to make myself available for as many hours between that point
and January 20th as he found helpful or necessary. And l, frankly, found myself
chasing him to try to find time that worked on both of our schedules to provide that
handoff.
ln the course of the four meetings that I described, we touched on all the
major - major - policy issues that you might imagine. Obviously, Russia was
one of them. We touched, however, more superficially on Russia than might have
otherwise been the case. This was my judgment. We - he had all the briefing
materials provided to him on Russia, and those remain unchanged. We didn’t talk
about Ambassador Kislyak, to answer specifically your question, but we did talk
about Russia as an adversary, as a threat to NATO. We talked about Ukraine.
We talked about Syria. We talked about lran and Russia in al! of those contexts.
But, frankty, we spent a lot more time talking about China in part because
General Flynn’s focus was on China as our principal overarching adversary. He
had many questions and concems about China. And when I elicited - sought to
elicit his perspective on Russia, he was quite - I started to say dismissive, but that
may be an overstatement. He downplayed his assessment of Russia as a threat
to the United States. He called it overblown. He said they’re a declining power,
they’re demographically challenged, they’re not really much of a threat, and then reemphasized the importance of China.
I had seen enough at that point and heard enough to be a little bit sensitive
to the question of the nature of General Flynn’s engagements with the Russians.
And so, while I certainly gave him what he - what I thought any incoming National
Security Advisor would need, in terms of broad strokes of Russia policy, Ukraine,
Syria, all of those things, I didn’t go into depth on particularly
in the sort of
hard national security realrn. lfigured that he could become briefed on that when
he took office
but we (Rice/Flynn) did talk about Russia as an adversary, as a threat to NATO. We talked about Ukraine. We talked about Syria. We talked about lran and Russia in al! of those contexts. But, frankty, we spent a lot more time talking about China in part because General Flynn’s focus was on China as our principal overarching adversary. I ran this through my Derp to English translator and this is what I came up with.
Flynn wasn't buying the Derpish Russia diversion and let Rice know that he knew what the real game was. A strategic mistake, on his part (or was it?).
Rice then recognized (if she hadn't already) that Flynn was a major threat. This led to the derps having to "F Flynn, then we F Trump" and the entire RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA hoax was set in motion.
Once that fell apart, China was exposed as the real enemy, which the derps are still trying to cover up.
Ukraine was the playground and nexus between Derps/China and Russia. Derp money and power circulated through Ukraine and it was a marketplace where U.S. politicians were bought and sold with heathen Chinee money and U.S. foreign aid dollars.
While U.S. politicians pretended to support Ukraine against the "evil Russians", who they told us were the true enemy of America.
Fast forward to today. Flynn is on the verge of total exoneration, while the derp plot against him is layed out for all to see. China is isolated on the world stage by their collusion with U.S. derps on the rona attack and subsequent attacks on the world and U.S. economies. And the derp attempts to shut down the readily available cure (HCQ) are being debunked and exposed.
Obama, arrogant and dull-witted ass that he is, sought to warn Trump that both Russia and Flynn were the enemy. He made the common derp mistake of thinking Trump was retarded, proving the old chestnut that, "These people are stupid."
So far, this has been brilliantly played, even with Flynn's initial mistake of tipping his hand to Rice. Because that mistake (if it was one), was also brilliantly played and got us to where we are today.
The silent war continues.
