Flynn was more tied to Podesta than Trump.

The hotel room meeting was filmed as part of a documentary the Flynn Intel Group was producing for a Turkish businessman, who paid $530,000 to the lobbying shop to polish the country’s image after a botched military coup. That contract has landed Mr. Flynn in legal jeopardy.

The unfinished, never-distributed film, details of which haven’t been previously reported, appears to represent the core of the Flynn Intel Group’s work for Turkish interests.

The contract is at the heart of an expanding investigation into Mr. Flynn’s business dealings. In February the retired three-star general was forced to resign, under fire over his conflicting statements about his contacts with Russian officials before the inauguration, after 24 days as Mr. Trump’s national security adviser.

Mr. Flynn didn’t disclose to the federal government until March that his company was paid to represent Turkish interests. He is now facing military, congressional and criminal investigations into allegations that he improperly concealed his financial ties to Turkey and Russia, and into whether the ties played any role in his decisions as the president’s adviser.

Along with the money from the Turkish businessman, Mr. Flynn received $33,750 from a Russian state news network to travel to Moscow in 2015, sit next to President Vladimir Putin at a gala and give a public interview on U.S. foreign policy.

A federal grand jury in Virginia recently issued subpoenas to people who worked for the Flynn Intel Group. Last week, Mr. Flynn said he would invoke his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and refuse to honor a subpoena from the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is investigating allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

If Flynn was doing work on Gulen,from what I have read Erdogan used Gulen as an excuse to clamp down on much of the country and “castro” his people. Which is pretty much where he is headed. Erdogan might as well be a mullah,hes bad news.His son bilal is worse,world class smugller.
I don’t know all there is to know about Turkey but given a choice between Gulen who is no saint and Erdogan there would be no choice. Erdogan is bad news all the way round.
