American Thinker: CIA broke the law to take out its critic General Flynn
2017-02-17
[American Thinker] Make no mistake: we have just witnessed an operation by members of the CIA to take out a high official of our own government. An agency widely believed to have brought down democratically elected governments overseas is now practicing the same dark arts in domestic American politics. Almost certainly, its new head, Mike Pompeo, was not consulted.

Senator Chuck Schumer, of all people, laid out on January 2 what was going to happen to the Trump administration if it dared take on the deep state ‐ the permanent bureaucracy that has contempt for the will of the voters and feels entitled to run the government for its own benefit:

#6  It is interesting that the phone call in question was in December.
So Obama had to have gone to FAISA to get permission to monitor Flynn's phone. Of course they were monitoring the Russian but what good does that do when they know we are listening.
Sound like a final attempt to get Flynn.

They were after him when he was head of NSA and they went nuts when he starting advising Trump.

Of course Flynn can still have a desk at the WH and advise Trump, he just isn't on the Security Council...how about making him Deputy Director of the Klingons so Pompeo can have a wing man in that fever swamp.

#5  ed in texas, Riebus Prince hasn't actually done anything to be blasted about yet as far as the world knows. Also he's generally standing between Trump and Bannon so the left can't even see him when stands in plane site.

#4  There were controversial allegations they were flying dope into Mena, Arkansas during the Clinton governorship too.

Wasn't too soon after that Clinton's legal team relaxed Posse Comitatus for domestic operatiions.

#3  CIA breaking the law? Naw, that wouldn't happen, it would be criminal and un-American. There were controversial allegations they were flying dope into Mena, Arkansas during the Clinton governorship too.

#2  Actually, as this was starting up, I thought about Sherlock Holmes and dogs not barking.
Who liasons between sources? Who in the 'inner circle' hasn't the media been stomping on?
The name I come up with is Riebus Prince.
