Before ‘takedown' of General Flynn, he was planning to audit John Brennan for running billions ‘off the books'
[lifezette.com] Sidney Powell, attorney for retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, said her client, in his duties as the White House national security adviser, was prepared to “audit” the U.S. intelligence community.

That, according to the former federal prosecutor, is partly why federal agents “set up” Flynn.

Powell, who took over Flynn’s defense last summer, told the “Vickie McKenna Show” on 1310 WIBA Madison that her client was “totally set up” because he threatened to expose wrongdoing by top intelligence officials in the Obama administration.

#1 Gee, and I thought the DNI had their own IG and audit teams.

#2 Can't investigate Brennan without investigating Soetoro and the Clinton's. We simply cannot have that.

#3  but don’t expect Barack Obama or Joe Biden to get in trouble.

If what happened to candidate and then Potus Trump has never happened in the history of the country, shouldn't this unique situation justify the indictment of these two?

#4 Why didn't Flynn say that on day 1?
Was there a gag order? Or would it have prejudiced his case?

#5 Has Sullivan dismisses the case as directed by the Appeals Court or are we going to see him drag this political persecution along with a time consuming en band appeal

There hasn’t been a federal judge impeached since AlCee Hastings, and Sullivan knows the DC House of Representatives would never try him so what deters this partisan hack in black from dragging this out and keeping Flynn from really talking?

#7 IIUC, Flynn (like Roger Stone) had a gag order

#8 Is this really news?

It's been common knowledge that Flynn was planning an audit almost since the beginning of this story.

The real story will be if anything is done about any of this.

Otherwise, this is just "throw the rubes some raw meat to keep 'em clicking."

#9 Could it be that that Soros (& his outfit) isn't really some nefarious puppet master but rather the deep state's sock puppet and money laundering operator?

#10 Want to see the real shit hit the fan? Wait for someone to get serious about auditing the Fed, and moving into position to do so.
