This is consistent with a pair of bombshells Joe DiGenova dropped on the Ingraham Angle last night. First, then-NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers approached the Chief Judge of the FISA Court in the Fall of 2016, informing her that the court was being fed false information in support of surveillance applications.

And it gets better: DiGenova claims the judge conducted her own investigation (with Rogers’ assistance) and has already submitted her report to DOJ, and it will be used in forthcoming indictments and trials. Everyone knows about Rogers’ solo visit to Trump Tower, to inform the president-elect that he was being spied on; last night was the first time I’ve heard about Rogers notifying the FISA court that FBI/DOJ officials were perpetuating a fraud in their applications. May also explain why some of those warrants were approved—the judge was giving a lot of folks plenty of rope to hang themselves.

If that’s not big enough, DiGenova also reported that four FBI contractors were hired to spy on Republicans and that operation continued from 2012-2016. He indicated the information gathered went to the highest levels of the government.

Joe DiGenova is hardly a kook or a member of the tinfoil hat brigade. He helped organized the FISA court in the late 70s, and served as US attorney for Washington, DC under Ronald Reagan. One of the brightest legal minds in DC; if you’re a Republican and get into trouble, you want someone like DiGenova (or his wife, Victoria Toensing), representing you—if you can afford them.

If Barr does his job, this will get extremely ugly for the Dims, and all roads lead back to Obama.

Just WHEN did Flynn criticize the US?? QUOTES, PLEASE!

I should have been more precise - he was critical of US policy and was pretty vocal about.. He felt that the military in Syria was being held back by Obama.

Specifically on RT, in this interview at about the 7:00 minute mark he's critical of the lack of US strategy in fighting ISIL and has additional criticisms later on.

I think his criticism was valid and he had every right to make it, but I also think his willingness to criticize our policy in contrast to Putin's was one of the main reasons RT wanted him and paid him $45k to speak.

Again, it would have been malpractice if our intelligence guys didn't keep an eye on him.

Keeping “an eye on him” by opening an investigation, and eventually setting a perjury trap?

What? Are you a Democrat plant, or just a deep state worshipper? Flynn did nothing wrong but get caught in a perjury trap, and stuck it out to save his family.

Respectfully, I think you may have lost the thrust of the thread.

The issue isn’t whether Flynn did anything illegal, it’s whether he did enough suspicious stuff to attract the attention of the intelligence services.
