Farkas admitted to using intelligence for political purposes. She admitted to leaking intelligence. She admitted to a conspiracy to do the same.

She has been out of government since 2015, how did she obtain intelligence reports?

Pentagon’s top Russia expert pushed tougher policy, By Austin Wright, 11/04/15

. . .she acknowledged she advocated for the administration to do more to deter Russia, including providing “lethal, defensive assistance to Ukraine, primarily anti-tank weapons.” She and others at the Pentagon advocating lethal aid have been overruled by the White House.

She also said that the administration should review its force posture in Europe and consider putting more troops further east and that top U.S. officials should spend more time in the region.

“We need more high-level attention being paid to the countries that feel directly threatened by Russia,” Farkas said.

Farkas announced last month her decision to leave the Pentagon after five years, during which she advised three secretaries of Defense and played a major role in securing $244 million in military support for Ukraine.

Wasn't a clip of her saying just that on Hannity last night?

President Trump often says un-PC things that sound nothing like a politician would try to subjugate the subject in question, so when President Trump is proven right in his earlier pronouncement, the press etc. has a fit. Word to all No Trump'ers....Never try to second guess this POTUS...no matter how he expresses 'it' he always comes out as correct.

Former Obama official discloses rush to get intelligence on Trump team

“I was urging my former colleagues and, frankly speaking, the people on the Hill, it was more actually aimed at telling the Hill people, get as much information as you can, get as much intelligence as you can, before President Obama leaves the administration,” Farkas, who is now a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, said. George Soros Funded Think Tank Attacks Disobedient Media, William Craddick Over EU Coverage

In May 2016, a report by the Associated Press identified the Atlantic Council as one of a number of think tanks which had received funding from the Ploughshares Fund. The Ploughshares Fund is financed by George Soros' Open Society Foundation. A May 5, 2016 article by the New York Times revealed that the Ploughshares Fund was a major player in efforts to sell the Iranian nuclear deal to the American public. The deal has been generally criticized as a foreign policy failure, resulted in the transfer of hundreds of billions of dollars to Iran without any concessions in return and has failed to prevent Iran from continuing to illegally test long range ICBM missiles in violation of both the deal and international sanctions.

She even said that more should have come out, or "leaked". I guess she heard some really juicy gossip that she figured would close out Trump and his team, and it never materialized which is the reason for her "concern" to Mika. I have seen now where Mark Levin is again leading the charge on this. He is earning points with me as being way out in front of everyone else.

Fox & Friends and Hannity have been covering in and IIRC Lou Dobbs on the Fox Business Channel (maybe Varney, too) also did.

The interest will pick up when everyone learns that Farkas was saying that as a person who was part of the Hillary team and MSNBC analyst, and not someone in the Obama administration since September 2015. But then again...

George Soros Funded Think Tank Attacks Disobedient Media, William Craddick Over EU Coverage

The Atlantic Council proudly lists a jaw dropping number of various special interest groups, government agencies, foreign governments and well connected, wealthy individual patrons among its donors. Highlights on the list include the foundation of Ukranian oligarch Victor Pinchuk, The Open Society Foundation, the United Arab Emirates, Bahaa Hariri, the billionaire brother of Lebanese prime minister Saad Hariri, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Inc., NATO, the United States Department of State, Lockheed Martin Corporation and the Turkish Ministry of Energy & National Resources, whose head Berat Albayrak was the subject of leaks released by publishing giant Wikileaks exposing increasing political oppression in Turkey.

Emails show Clinton denied, then met with Ukrainian donor

Emails made public Tuesday show a Ukrainian businessman and major Clinton Foundation donor was invited to Hillary Clinton's home during the final year of her diplomatic tenure, despite her spokesman's insistence in 2014 that the donor never crossed paths with Clinton while she served as secretary of state.

Victor Pinchuk, who has given up to $25 million to the Clinton Foundation, appeared on the guest list that was sent between Dennis Cheng, an executive at the foundation, and Huma Abedin, then Clinton's deputy chief of staff at the State Department, ahead of a June 2012 dinner. Abedin noted in a subsequent email that the gathering would be hosted in Clinton's home.

Amid scrutiny of Clinton's ties to Pinchuk in 2014, the Democratic nominee's spokesman, Nick Merrill, said Pinchuk had never met with Clinton during that time. He told the New York Times that, "from Jan. 21, 2009, to Feb. 1, 2013," the Ukrainian businessman "was never on her schedule."

Ukrainian Businessman Sought Meeting With Bill Clinton Last Year: Victor Pinchuk, billionaire Clinton Foundation donor, wanted ‘private meeting’ in Europe

Ukrainian businessman and major Clinton Foundation donor Victor Pinchuk sought a meeting with Bill Clinton last year over the situation in Ukraine, newly released emails show.

Pinchuk, whose foundation has contributed millions to the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, "relentlessly" pushed for a meeting with the former president and possibly other Western leaders to signal "support for Ukraine," according to an email released Monday by Wikileaks in a trove of John Podesta’s hacked communications.

"Victor Pinchuk is relentlessly following up (including this morning) about a meeting with WJC in London or anywhere in Europe," reads the March 2015 email that appears to be written by Ami Desai, the Clinton Foundation's foreign policy director, to other foundation aides. "Ideally he wants to bring together a few western leaders to show support for Ukraine, with WJC probably their most important participant. If that’s not palatable for us, then he’d like a bilat with WJC."

"If it’s not next week, that’s fine, but he wants a date. I keep saying we have no Europe plans, although we do have those events in London in June," the email states. "Are folks comfortable offering Victor a private meeting on one of those dates?"

So was Farkas acting as a front for Ukranian Clinton Foundation donor Victor Pinchuk in pushing the Trump-Russia narrative? Was Hillary? Is John McCain?

Great questions. None of this would have mattered (come to light) if Hillary had won as expected.
