IsntLifeFunny Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) This is a really good article from last year about Flynn. It’s balanced and notes some issues in the FBI’s narrative on Flynn. Some of the key points: Before Flynn made his infamous December 2015 trip to Moscow - as a retired general and then-adviser to Donald Trump's presidential campaign - he alerted his former employer, the DIA. He then attended a "defensive" or "protective" briefing before he ever sat alongside Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Russia Today (RT) dinner, or before he talked with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. The briefing educated and sensitized Flynn to possible efforts by his Russian host to compromise the former high-ranking defense official and prepared him for conversations in which he could potentially extract intelligence for U.S. agencies such as the DIA. When Flynn returned from Moscow, he spent time briefing intelligence officials on what he learned during the Moscow contacts. Between two and nine intelligence officials attended the various meetings with Flynn about the RT event, and the information was moderately useful, about what one would expect from a public event, according to my sources. But then we get back to where the rubber meets the road: There's no sugarcoating the mistakes Flynn did make. By his own admission, he misled the FBI and Vice President Pence about the fact that sanctions did come up in a December 2016 conversation with Kislyak, then Moscow's ambassador to the United States. He didn't file proper foreign-lobbying paperwork for money he received from Turkish sources. And he likely did not file the proper paperwork disclosing or seeking permission for the $45,000 in speaking and travel fees he got for the RT event. If he hadn’t of taken the plea deal he would have been facing up to five years for his actions on behalf of Turkey. There’s the key point to it all. He was allowed to skate because of his cooperation. https://www.google.com/amp/s/thehill.com/opinion/white-house/423558-exculpatory-russia-evidence-about-mike-flynn-that-us-intel-kept-secret%3famp Edited May 11, 2020 by IsntLifeFunny Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There used to be a very diverse discussion on their articles. Not so much these days. I still can’t wrap my mind entirely around what the big deal is with them unmasking Flynn. They didn’t know it was him, which is the whole damn point of unmasking. Like the article states, it could have possibly even been someone within the administration talking with the Russians and undermining Obama. Either way, the conversation ended up in a daily briefing somewhere, was analyzed and sent up the ladder, and was handed over to people with clearance to unmask Flynn, which then led to this whole little party. Not everything is a gigantic conspiracy. Edited May 13, 2020 by IsntLifeFunny tgo, Starkiller, and thor 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everything is a gigantic conspiracy. Nearly 20,000 people are "unmasked" per year in the normal course of intelligence gathering. Maybe if Flynn wasn't engaging in sketchy, unlawful, traitorous activities - he wouldn't have been one of them. MadMax, and IsntLifeFunny 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeFan Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Two questions to have answered is, of those 17 people on the list, how many requests had they made to unmask other individuals prior to the Flynn unmasking and why did they ask for the Flynn unmasking?
