Explosive New Flynn Documents Show FBI Goal Was To ‘Get Him Fired’ (FBI handwriting notes never turned over show pretext)
The Federalists ^

“What is our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute [Flynn] or get him fired?”

Handwritten notes from the FBI that had been withheld from Michael Flynn and his defense team show that the FBI's goal in investigating and ambushing Flynn was 'to get him fired.'

New documents filed under seal last week by the Department of Justice provide the clearest evidence yet that the investigation and subsequent prosecution of former White House National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was a set-up from the beginning. Handwritten notes from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that had been inappropriately withheld from Flynn’s defense team for years show that a key goal of the agents investigating Flynn was “to get him to lie so we can prosecute him or get him fired.”

In early 2017, FBI agents planned to question Flynn under false pretenses and without his attorneys present regarding his conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. At the time of those conversations, Flynn was the top foreign policy adviser of the president-elect of the United States. By the time of the ambush FBI interview, Flynn had already been appointed as the White House national security adviser.

In the handwritten FBI notes, the note-taker, whose identity was not made clear in the document production, wrote that an alternate goal is to “get [Flynn] to admit breaking the Logan Act,” a reference to a 1799 law restricting communications between private citizens and foreign governments. The law is widely viewed as unconstitutional and has never been used to successfully prosecute a single American citizen. The previously secret notes do not explain that Flynn was not a private citizen, but rather the incoming national security adviser at the time of his conversations with world leaders.

FBI Director Wray has hid these and other documents for years.
He has proven he is incapable of cleaning out the FBI.
And must be fired at some point.

It’s like a whack-a-mole. You get rid of one guy and another one acts the part to get in and once he’s in then it’s the same old same old. When you do nominate a total outsider then the senate including the GOP establishment won’t confirm him

The President should go on the offense. Call a nationwide address and Announce that the country is going in a different direction and that Wray lacked the ability to clean house.

“New documents show FBI goal was to put Capone in prison!”

Is that one of your deeper thoughts?

And Dana Perino thinks Priestap should be given a chance to explain himself.

Nothing will happen to them.

Tell that to Comey who was fired and went down in disgrace. And it's not over for him and others yet.

How would you know??

How about these documents were under seal because they were evidence before a grand jury. And can now be released because the GJ has finished with them.

the note-taker, whose identity was not made clear in the document production,...

Gotta admit that these people give up NOTHING without a continuing fight. Why shouldn't they if there are no consequences?

General Flynn should sue all AG’s involved with the case for violating his Civil Rights, and sue his former lawyers (Covington and Eric Holder) for malpractice.
