“Trump was willing to throw Mike Flynn under the bus”
I have been perusing Free Republic and have run across that whine about fifteen times already. You are just like the rest of us — we have no clue as to what is really going on, except that someone in lying and some people in the intelligence community committed treason.
Appreciate your insight, but it’s not entirely correct. I’ve worked in and with the Intelligence Community for over 40 years, I’ve known Mike Flynn for 23 years (I was his instructor at one point in his career), I know a fair number of his detractors and I worked in the White House (Homeland Security and National Security Council Staffs) for 15 months after 9/11. I still work very closely with several different agencies in the Intelligence Community, albeit in a different capacity (consulting) than I did previously. So yes, I do have at least a little more insight into what’s going on than the average person.
I would refer you to the following, obviously unclassified articles for some insight into Flynn’s conversation with Ambassador Kislyak and who Mike’s and Trump’s enemies are:
Mike Hayden, mentioned prominently in the second article is a devout #NEVERTRUMPer, was a hyper-political Air Force general officer and a pompous ass, who assumes he knows everything about Islam and counterterrorism by virtue of his rank, despite the fact that his operational intelligence experience was very limited.
Speaking rhetorically...if the media is up in arms about the Russians interfering in the election, why aren’t they equally as interested in a rogue intelligence agency trying to take down a sitting President?
What poses a greater threat? the interference from without or the treason from within?
Just asking?
