Right on. A three star general, intelligence specialist and director of the DIA fired by Obama for trying to make field intelligence in the ME available on a useful time-scale was a Russian plant. Sure I believe that wholeheartedly! /s/

Stranger things can and do happen.


CIA Director under President Obama, John Brennan

John Brennan Voted Communist in 1976, Then Entered CIA in 1980

March 31, 2018

Barack Obama’s CIA chief, John Brennan, told the Annual Legislative Conference of the Congressional Black Caucus, on 15 September 2016, in Washington DC, that when he had applied in 1980 to join the CIA, he admitted to them that in the 1976 Presidential election, when Jimmy Carter was running against Gerald Ford, Brennan had voted instead for the candidate of the U.S. Communist Party, Gus Hall, and that he was then greatly relieved to find that this information didn’t cause rejection of his CIA-application.

This had happened 11 years before the 1991 end of the Cold War...”

"During the Cold War the CPUSA [Communist Party, USA] had a parallel underground structure, and a small number of people spied for Moscow.

Until the 1980s the party was receiving substantial amounts of Soviet funding, says Klehr, money that the FBI knew about and tracked."

Flynn took money from multiple Russian firms

Mar 16, 2017

President Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, received $56,250 in payments during the presidential race for work done for two Russian firms and Kremlin-backed news outlet RT, according to new documents obtained by a House Oversight panel. 

Flynn was fired from his White House post last month after misleading Vice President Pence about communications with Russia's ambassador to the U.S.

Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee are requesting an additional investigation into newly disclosed payments he received from Russia-based companies, sending a letter detailing the allegations to Trump and the leaders of the Pentagon and FBI.

Flynn spoke at a gala hosted by RT in December 2015, an event he acknowledged during last year’s campaign.

But he refused to say how much he was paid, citing an unwillingness to have his speaking fees publicized. 

The documents reveal the retired Army lieutenant general received more than $45,000 for participating in the event.

His speakers bureau, Leading Authorities, took a $11,250 cut.

The event occurred in Russia, and his travel and accommodations were covered.

At the time, he was working on a volunteer basis as a military adviser on Trump’s presidential campaign.

The new documents obtained by the committee also detail that Flynn received $11,250 from Volga-Dnepr Airlines in August 2015, a Russian airfreight company that the United Nations had suspended from its list of approved vendors after a corruption scandal involving an indicted Russian United Nations official. 

Flynn received an additional $11,250 payment in October 2015 from the subsidiary of a Russian company specializing in “uncovering Western government spyware,” Kaspersky Lab.

Its founder, Eugene Kaspersky, denies that it has stocked the firm with those with close ties to Russian intelligence.

Flynn, who served as the director of Defense Intelligence Agency from 2012 until he was fired from the job in 2014, still had a top-level national security clearance when he performed the work in 2015. ..."

suspended last month, pending further review.  ..."
