Michael Flynn: There's an ‘Anti-American' Sentiment in the DoJ, FBI, Intel Community
2020-12-10
[Breitbart] Wednesday on Fox Business Network’s "Mornings with Maria," former National Security adviser Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn argued there was an "anti-American sense" within some agencies within the federal government.

Partial transcript as follows:

FLYNN: First of all, we all know that this was an effort to get Flynn to get Trump, and that’s been very — made very clear. One particular senior FBI agent who has now put into an affidavit, which is a good word to use right now, and that statement that he made was outrageous.

The other things that, you know — the 2016 campaign, 2016 transition, and then into the White House. This entire effort — when people say hey, Mike, I’m sorry for what happened to you, what I tell people is don’t feel sorry for me. Feel sorry for this president, feel sorry for the presidency of this country, and be outraged at what they tried to do to this country.

And that’s really what this was about. This was about going after a president who won an election and they — by all rights, they figured oh, no way is he going to win.

So imagine if these people that went after the president — or after President Trump and his presidency in our country — imagine if they had allowed him to just say, "Hey, let’s see what this can do." We’d probably be double or triple in every category of economy, our military, everything. And look at what President Trump has been able to do despite the kind of assault that he’s been under.

And we’re still facing that right now in this current election. We have an element in our country, some of which is in the institutions of our government — the Department of Justice and certainly, the FBI and other elements like the intelligence community that just basically are — I mean, I think most Americans would agree or many Americans would agree that there’s an anti-American sense inside of some of these institutions. And they just do not want to see our country thrive in the way that I think Donald Trump has been able to do that despite the assault on him and his ability to lead this country.

#4  The source of the problem could be the nepotistic anti-American propaganda mills the DoJ, FBI, CIA primarily recruit from. Start with bad seed, you get a blighted crop.

#3  /\ They were reporting their activities among the sympathetic in the Japanese community in America. America didn't have a means to immediately identify those sympathetic to the attacker.

Today however we "know" but until the Orange Man, have done nothing.

#2  Point of order. In 1995, 45 years after the war, the classified intel was released. In his book, Marching Orders, author Bruce Lee actually went over the diplomatic communications of the Japanese. They were reporting their activities among the sympathetic in the Japanese community in America. America didn't have a means to immediately identify those sympathetic to the attacker. They did know that 90 percent of aircraft production resided in the LA basin and Seattle areas. Those were the areas where communities were uprooted and displaced. It was crude, but given the panic (see panic vis a vis Covid 19) among the governments they saw little other choice. Non-citizens of all belligerents were gathered as were ours in those those countries. There was part of the problem in the racism that obstructed citizenship and property rights for Asians prevalent in the region compounding the situation. (Then today, such high minded institutions as Harvard et al actively discriminate against Asians).

#1  The FBI is no longer a legitimate law enforcement agency. The DOJ is off & on in this regard, as is the US Supreme Court. You know, the court that sanctioned the abrogation of contracts nationwide when FDR outlawed the so-called "gold clauses" in valid contracts, and also when he interned Americans of Japanese consent without due process of law. Both these presidential actions were based on, of course, national "emergencies", which means "anything goes".
