President Barack Obamas Treasury Department regularly surveilled retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynns financial records and transactions beginning in December 2015 and well into 2017, before, during and after when he served at the White House as President Donald Trumps National Security Director, a former senior Treasury Department official, and veteran of the intelligence community, told the Star Newspapers.
I started seeing things that were not correct, so I did my own little investigation, because I wanted to make sure what I was seeing was correct she said. You never want to draw attention to something if there is not anything there.
The whistleblower said she only saw metadata, that is names and dates when the generals financial records were accessed. I never saw what they saw.
By March 2016, the whistleblower said she and a colleague, who was detailed to Treasury from the intelligence community, became convinced that the surveillance of Flynn was not tied to legitimate criminal or national security concerns, but was straight-up political surveillance among other illegal activity occurring at Treasury.
When I showed it to her, what she said, Oh, sh%t! and I knew right then and there that I was right this was some shady stuff, the whistleblower said.
It wasnt just him, the whistleblower said. They were targeting other U.S. citizens, as well.
Only two names are listed in the whistleblowers official paperwork, so the others must remain sealed, she said. The second name is Paul J. Manafort Jr., the one-time chairman of Trumps 2016 presidential campaign.
The other names include: Members of Congress, the most senior staffers on the 2016 Trump campaign and members of Trumps family, she said.

Republican my ASS....he was appointed by BJ Clinton!
Right, it doesn’t add up.
Yes, there are many who are “Republicans” that are totally loyal to global socialism. But their “label” allows them to be trusted enough to get inside and relay information to their masters.
She will be investigated and outed by Adam Ant Schiff and Jerry The Blob Nadler and will be charged with some process crime.
It appears to be an enemies list. How...Nixonian.
Excellent idea...but realistically, how many work longer than 24 years before being eligible for retirement?
Drags his feet?
No worries. You’re on the Bigly Trump or the Trump Train list.
I started the Grad & Prof list during the last election to prove a point, when the Left was calling all Trump supporters stupid and uneducated. I knew there were many very educated people on FR, and just those who have signed up are a significant number. But just about everyone on FR is smart!
If no one is ever prosecuted properly, the best we can hope for is that the news getting out causes the voters to re-elect Trump and elect the GOP for both houses, with a good margin. Then we would see some action by the President and Congress, not necessarily to jail them, but to legally dismantle their machine. God will take care of the rest.
Trump may survive his enemies. Will he survive his 'supporters?'
Yes, I was looking through those various links before I posted, but none of them seemed very informative.
Include me there. He has to be asking himself, "Is there an end to this?" Do you start charging people now and perhaps miss part of the bigger picture?
I'd like to see the world's biggest RICO indictment.
Flynn was on the trail of massive financial fraud...
Entertainment value?
thanks..I’ll still dig...
You fire the DIA and don’t keep an eye on him? not hardly.
