More Trump-declassified docs show a dark FBI

By Mike Huckabee

Yesterday, we played “remember when” with the FBI’s opening of their investigation into Trump, supposedly on allegations of “obstruction justice” for firing Director James Comey. As newly declassified documents show, the FBI knew when they opened that investigation that top officials at the DOJ had already been talking about firing Comey for months. (Who DIDN’T want to fire Comey?) And this had nothing to do with “Russia Russia Russia.”

Here's another installment from the documents declassified by Trump, this time about Michael Flynn. As you'll see, the Flynn story is quite consistent with what the FBI and other government agencies appear to have in store for anyone who dares to criticize the Biden administration or pose any challenge to its power. Let’s take a look at what Chuck Ross at the DAILY CALLER has found.

Remember when Michael Flynn was plagued with rumors that he'd been having an affair with a Russian woman named Svetlana Lokhova, a researcher at the University of Cambridge? Reports started surfacing in March of 2017, in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL and THE GUARDIAN, and Christopher Steele spread the rumor as well, telling David Kramer, a former State Department official, who, as it happens, was also the person who later passed a copy of Steele’s “dossier” to BUZZFEED, where it was published in full with no verification.

Flynn, it was said, left with Lokhova from a dinner both had been invited to at Cambridge when he was the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, in 2015. That dinner, hosted by Sir Richard Dearlove, former head of British spy organization MI-6 and associate of “confidential human source” Stefan Halper, may very well have been set up to place Flynn and Lokhova together. Recall that Obama opposed Flynn and his ideas on how to run military intel and wanted him gone.

Lokhova has vehemently denied that she left the dinner with Flynn, saying her husband picked her up at the end of the evening and that there was nothing between her and Flynn. (Though Ross’s piece doesn’t mention this, I believe she also sued those who were perpetuating the rumor.)

We talked about this many months ago as part of what Lee Smith reported in his outstanding book THE PLOT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT. One might also say this was the plot against Michael Flynn, too.

The newly declassified summary notes of Flynn’s meeting with the special counsel’s office show for the first time that Flynn was asked about this and cooperated fully, saying the allegations he’d read in the media were “ridiculous.” (There has never been any evidence of a relationship between Flynn and Lokhova.) Two days after this interview, he struck his unfortunate plea deal with the special counsel’s office.

William Barnett, the FBI agent investigating Flynn as part of Crossfire Hurricane, had already said in a January 2017 memo that a tip the Bureau received from an FBI informant about Flynn leaving that event with a Russian national was likely inaccurate. And in September 2020, he told a federal prosecutor that he’d found the allegation of Flynn leaving the event with Lokhova to be “not plausible.”

So, who put the fake story out there? It’s like an Agatha Christie murder mystery --- without the murder, except to the reputations of a couple of people. Was it Sir Richard Dearlove? Cambridge professor Christopher Andrew? One of the few Cambridge students in attendance? Or was it Stefan Halper, a close associate of Dearlove who was not at the dinner but who had been a CHS (“confidential human source”) for the FBI since 2008 and whom we know provided information to the FBI as part of their investigation of the Trump campaign?

Recall that Halper met with George Papadopoulos, Carter Page and Sam Clovis of the Trump campaign and secretly recorded them all.

If I were a betting man, my money would be on Halper. Sure enough, we now know it was Halper who invited Lokhova to that dinner. Also, according to other documents that have just been declassified, Halper told his FBI handler Steven Somma about Flynn and “someone he deemed to be suspicious.” Here’s a little refresher on Somma, also known as “Case Agent 1.”

Flynn was definitely caught in the crossfire of Crossfire Hurricane. According to the DOJ inspector general’s report dated December 19, 2019, FBI agents who met with Christopher Steele on October 3, 2916, offered to pay him “significantly” to dig up dirt on several Trump associates, including Flynn. What a deal for Steele --- he got to go after Trump, whom he couldn’t stand, help Hillary beat him, and get paid “significantly” in the process. Here’s a refresher.

No, we still don’t know what U.S. Attorney John Durham is going to do with any of this. And we’re now stuck with a Biden Justice Department, so justice seems unlikely. But thanks to Trump finally getting this stuff out, we’re filling in the holes and confirming what we knew was done to the President and fine people like Michael Flynn. Sorry to say, the intel community really does have “six ways from Sunday” of getting back at you.

And as part of the new Biden administration, it’ll be on steroids. Look at what the FBI has done already, drumming up phony concern about a small group of extremists called QAnon, which most Republicans (including us) had never even heard of, and also throwing the book at social media influencer and “meme”-creator Doug Mackey (a.k.a. Ricky Vaughn) on charges of INTERFERING WITH THE 2020 ELECTION. (He faces 10 years; check out his story elsewhere in today’s newsletter.) The irony of the FBI going after anyone for “election interference” after what they did both before and after the 2016 election is beyond calculation.

The Department of Homeland Security has focused on Trump supporters, too, offering this warning: "Information suggests that some ideologically-motivated violent extremists with objections to the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition, as well as other perceived grievances fueled by false narratives, could continue to mobilize to incite or commit violence."

Not that they have evidence of this actually happening THAT THEY HAVE REVEALED. But, as we've seen with the case of Michael Flynn, they're perfectly capable of creating their own "false narratives."

FYI

By Mike Huckabee

A judge has ruled that Virginia’s rule change to allow ballots that arrived late without a postmark to be counted for up to three days after the election was illegal.

I don’t know whether I should say, “NOW they tell us” or just keep my mouth shut for fear of being accused of insurrection for reporting that illegal voting is illegal.

A San Francisco School Board Vote Worth Noting

By Mike Huckabee

Remember when President Trump said that if you let leftists rip down Confederate monuments, they would soon move on to erasing Washington and Jefferson from history? And how the media did their usual pile-on, accusing him of exaggerating and being a lying liar who lies?

At that link, Byron York reports on a vote by the San Francisco School Board to strip the names of all historical figures, including Washington, Jefferson and even Abraham Lincoln, from schools. Not even Diane Feinstein was PC enough for them. My favorite example of their clueless radicalism is that they voted to rename Roosevelt Middle School, and they didn’t even know whether it was named after Franklin or Theodore Roosevelt.

What if it was named after Eleanor Roosevelt? Or worse yet, baseball great Jackie Roosevelt Robinson? Those racists and misogynists should all be forced to resign from the school board!

Anti-Gun Group Releases Report

By Mike Huckabee

A prominent anti-gun group just issued a 39-page report that’s stunningly racist. It attacks the gun industry and Second Amendment defense groups for allegedly “targeting” blacks and Latinos by telling them about their rights, selling them firearms and teaching them how to use them safely. Apparently, they’re very worried about blacks and Latinos exercising their constitutional right to own firearms for self-defense.

Funny, I keep hearing that it’s conservatives who are afraid of minorities having guns. Yet we defend that right while it’s Democrats who are always trying to keep them from owning guns, going all the way back to the days when the NRA was the only civil rights organization that stood up for blacks having guns to defend themselves against the KKK.

Incidentally, this report repeats the common misinformation (how I love using that term correctly) that records show guns being used in many crimes, but guns are almost never used to prevent crimes. Could that possibly be because when a crime is committed, it’s reported; but when it’s prevented, it’s not?

The Death Knell For Impeachment

By Mike Huckabee

This article by Matt Margolis at PJ Media explains why the 55-45 vote against Sen. Rand Paul’s resolution to drop the ridiculous impeachment trial still spells the death knell for impeachment. If 45 out of 50 Republicans agreed with Paul that it’s unconstitutional, there’s no way 17 of 50 Republicans will vote to impeach, which is required for a two-thirds majority vote. So why have the trial at all and waste the people's time and money?

But it also makes some other important points, like listing the five Republicans who voted to proceed with impeachment. They’re pretty much who you’d expect: Sens. Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowsky, Ben Sasse, Pat Toomey and Mitt Romney. But note who’s not on that list: Mitch McConnell. McConnell has been taking heat from the right for his comments about Trump committing an impeachable offense by inciting the Capitol riot, even though free speech is protected, “incitement” is a very specific term that doesn’t apply here, and we now know the Capitol assault was being planned before Trump gave his speech.

But aside from all that, and no matter how much McConnell may have bad-mouthed Trump, it’s highly doubtful he would vote for an impeachment that he’s already on record as finding unconstitutional.

Paul’s resolution may have failed, but he succeeded in proving that this alleged “impeachment” is not only mere political theater, it’s pointless-and-doomed-from-the-get-go political theater.

    Hi Mike, Recently I've found Sky News from Australia on Youtube, and I love some of their passionate conservative commentary. Here is one link. The lady starts going off on the liberal guest just after 2 minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqChvYjRrH8

    On another video, which I can't find at the moment, this same women went off on Biden for dictating that boys can participate in girl's sports. She made a point that I thought was interesting and maybe you can share with people. She said that high school boys have faster track times than Olympic world champion women. I looked up some stats, and what I read was that the women's world record in the mile is 4 minutes and 12 seconds. And the American High School boy's record for the mile was 3 minutes and 53 seconds. Nineteen seconds faster. Not even close. So this woman was right in saying that Biden's dictate will ruin girl's sports. I've believed that, too, but this fact really made it clear. Maybe it will make it clear for some who have agreed with Biden's dictate.

    I have a question, not a comment, suppose all the courts rule like Virginia did, what then? I can't imagine President Trump letting this go if he was the rightful winner and fraud is proven. Can they unsit a sitting president who cheated and replace him with the actual winner?

    I enjoyed when your Biblical quote ended the litany of stupidity that you observed and wrote of. Having a final thought after reading all of the stuff that could make one mad, was tempered by the final thought that there might be strength, love and caring after all of what really mattered, and got people up in the morning.
    Don't put it first: Continue to keep it at the tail end because after all of the weirdness there is an uplifting message that provides inspiration for the day. If you put it up front, some might hear the message and not pay attention to your content, which they should.
    I appreciate your thoughts, as always,

    The vote that Senator Paul of Kentucky got is very telling. Why should the American people pay for such an impeachment trial? If Schumer and the democrats wish to continue with it, they should pay for it. A lot of money is being wasted lately in Congress with their endless investigations. All the investigations have come to the same conclusion, that the democrats were never really interested in governing... they wanted to take down #45. Think of all the good the $$$ from the endless investigations could have been used for.

    Please have your team research the constitutionality of legislating through executive orders instead of through the congressional procedure. It seems to me the Biden is being quite excessive with his executive orders and that each is a sweeping change in policy. And then, why are the right leaning Demos and the Republicans, especially the conservative Republicans, just standing and watching.

    It is very scary to me how far left this country can and probably will go in two years and especially in four years.

    Thank you for your newsletter and your conservative perspective on the day’s news.

    Ps 31:18 Let the lying lips be put to silence which speak grievous things proudly and contemptously against the righteous. May God's judgement come on every lying, election stealing , baby killing , sowing discord , treasonist politician in America.
    I ask that every pastor stand up against the closing of churches while strip clubs , bars, gyms are all open. There is a war against God's people. Wearing mask is a way of controling the population.
