Because he takes Jihad serious and Obama didn’t like that which is why Flynn was ousted. Then when Trump brought him into his admin, the Obama admin didn’t like that so they re-ousted him in a different way. Something about though shall not slander the name of allah

Also, Gen. Flynn knew where all the bodies were buried and who was a globalist traitor holdover. He could name names.

I wish I saved the links to the stories but he stated that as a stance in the Trump administration, he was going to “clean up” the FBI, CIA, NSA and DIA.

They instantly decided a good offense was the best defense and took him out.

It sounds like it was a back door. To whom/what?

Name names
Write names - ALL NAMES. From the big fish to the tiny guppies.
What this man had to endure is as unAMERICAN as BO and his minions.

Gen. Flynn, find the right key and sing your heart out! If it takes such time till all HELL freezes over, American patriots will be happy to assist; we’ll bring the ICE and if need be - the rope.

I believe Flynn stood up for a lady who accused Andy of sexual misconduct or something. I have a feeling involving Flynn was partly revenge.

plenty of media collusion, which explains why FakeNewsMSM have attacked The President ever since:

30 Apr: Youtube: Ep. 1240 It’s Worse Than We Thought - The Dan Bongino Show
In this episode, I address the astonishing new revelations in the FBI targeting scandal of General Mike Flynn. I also address the cowardice on the left, and their failure to address this grotesque violation of civil liberties.

>> Flynn did not commit a crime but pled guilty to one upon bad advice of counsel.

The process is the punishment. Flynn was being bled dry from the cost of lawyers and the Feds were threatening his son with prosecution if Flynn didn’t plea out, IIRC.

“... he was going to “clean up” the FBI, CIA, NSA and DIA.”

Dan Bongino’s podcast yesterday asserts that the reason obozo fired him in 2014 was that Flynn saw stuff, spoke up, did not like what was going on in the agencies, which included the Pentagon. He was alleged to be a voice in the wilderness about how obozo was dealing with Afghanistan, and was against the Iranian agreement. That is, he was not with the program. Your comment/recollection about Flynn’s Trump campaign statements support that.

There is more to this story. There has to be more than a personal vendetta against Flynn by agency players. He had to be a way to get at Trump. The question still is who was the center of the criminal conspiracy to which all these people acted to advance the insurance policy?

I recommend listening to Bongino from yesterday if you have an hour. This article is either out of date, or incomplete with other facts, and does not make as strong a case as could be made. It’s focused on these bad guys working hard to get rid of hero, patriot Flynn, but Flynn is not the real target. Just like Steele and the dossier. Lots of “journalists” eventually painted Steele as a former spy with a great animosity towards Trump and wanted him stopped from being POTUS at all costs. The new coat of paint was done on a new fire wall up - an attempt to protect the ringleaders of the conspiracy, as well as the reputations useful dunces like McCain (who passed the dossier to the FBI who already had it in their possession). Yeh, right.

Too many people were being used to take Flynn out. Steele was not a rogue. They were being “used” or “useful” to set up candidate, POTUS-elect, and POTUS.

Flynn was forced to sell his home in order to pay his legal bills. This travesty of justice must be corrected and those responsible heavily punished.

Flynn needs to have those responsible pay for a new home to be built to the same standards/features as what he lost. He needs to have every penny of his legal expenses paid by those involved in his malicious prosecution. He also needs to collect damages for his pain and suffering which should also be paid for by his prosecutors. This sum should be in the $30-50 million dollar range and should also be paid by his prosecutors.

Finally everyone who was involved in this crime should spend a minimum of 10 yrs in a Federal Penitentiary with no chance of parole. Perhaps if a strong enough signal is sent the scumbags will have second thoughts about doing this sort of thing again. Oh and there should be no statute of limitations on prosecuting things of this kind.

“Flynn did not commit a crime but pled guilty to one upon bad advice of counsel.”

I am not ready to jump on the band wagon that his first set of DC white-shoe K-Street attorneys gave him bad advice, at this time.

But one thing I know, for the price he paid to them,he didn’t get his moneys worth. They apparently lacked the knowledge / experience that Sidney Powell has on federal prosecutorial and FBI malfeasance. And if they had it, there is no indication had the fight in them. Of course, they won’t speak out because of attorney-client privilege. One time an attorney can’t speak.

In addition, I heard (I haven’t verified) that Eric Holder was a partner in the firm. So Flynn gambled that the obozo connection could help protect him. He should ask for a refund.

Ironic, that the start of this fiasco was with General Flynn, with all the horrible months that followed, and it appears to be General Flynn that started the unraveling of the scheme that may destroy the rats who began it.

I think you are right.

Else Cheryl Mills would not have written that CYA email to herself on Inauguration Day that a recent meeting with obozo and biden present, that obozo told everyone to do things “by the book.” obozo was most likely behind that as well.

You could be right. We know if wasn’t a single Congressional hearing by the incompetent GOP(e).

The ‘BLUE QUEEN’ rules (Since the MSM changed the colors on us!), conviction first, trial afterwards. Lewis Carroll / Charles Dodgson wrote “Alice in Wonderland” as a fantasy, not as a Swamp instruction book!
