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."

    The image of the FBI has been ruined. Stunts like Richard Jewel and now Hillary Clinton have done a lot of damage. Perhaps, the FBI should clean their house first.

    I have been a firm believer in the deep state for awhile and its unprecedented corruption. This and the rest of the information we have seen related to the Russian hoax has proven my suspicions correct. God help us all.

    Governor, for those of us in the general public, it is such a disappointment to realize the corruption and political biases in our government agencies. We go about blissfully going to work, raising our families, believing in the United States of America and the freedoms our Constitution provides. And then we see how corrupt and "nasty" the political class is. These people that we are trusting with keeping us safe and free do not give a damn for anything other than their own power and warped ideals. And you and I both know that nothing will ever be done about any of this. Those who are guilty will go on destroying peoples lives that get in their way and with complete impunity. So terribly sad where we are today. And also frightening that we now cannot trust our media, our politicians, the bureaucrats, our universities, etc. etc.

    Today, I have a question for you: Do you suppose that any of these legislators who want to get rid of Donald Trump and bar him from public office forever consulted their constituents? I get surveys from my representative and senators now and then, but these surveys are structured and usually involve issues that do not impact me in any way. After all, they work for us and not the other way around.

    It is SO frustrating that for 4 years President Trump had to fight the democratically and the rhinos . Found all the evidence and NOTHING is going to happen. What a shame for Americans.

    I'm still angry and sad that President Trump did not order the declassified docs. about Hunter Biden and Hurrican Crossfire Op. ealier at least one month before the election. I suspected those advisors/ lawyers around him tried to distract or mislead him on all kind of the situations, because he's so busy every day on everything, he may not have his clear mind for sometimes. Also he did not declare "martial law" to have military to seize all "Dominion machines" ??? Because no one from SCOTUS or any lower court DID NOT want to look at the voters fraud evidence with so many affidavits and witnesses. The President was betrayed from all those RINO around him. Bad for the country. HE'S THE BEST AND BRAVEST PRESIDENT OF THE USA EVER !

    " 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,"
    Sometimes Mike, you really make me wonder about you ....
    You say you've never heard of the group QAnon (me either) yet you go ahead and label them (whoever they are) as "extremists", it's that exactly the rhetoric the left uses for the Dec 6 incident, etc ? Which by the way, you also seem to always infer as patriot caused.
    BTW, if you haven't, read Sharyl Atkisson's book "Slanted" ... might help in phrasing :-) .... unless "extremist" really was the intended message.

    How do we, as Americans, get justice served in this corruption that can be proven? We are held accountable to the laws but they are not.

    We all need to cover ourselves with Gods Word in Isaiah 54:17. No weapon formed against us will prosper and every word spoken against us will be rebuked.

    Thank you for placing the Bible verse at the beginning! Good move! Enjoy your TV program very much. Hope you aren't taken off the airwaves!!! don't trust anything coming down the pike from the administration. President Trump, your daughter Sarah and all the people who stood by the President have had guardian angels watching over them and God making sure they are safe and able to have the stamina to continue to do the right thing for the country and American people. We don't have to worry about going Socialist/Communist because it has already been planted and begun.As one human being to another, I feel sorry for Biden because he has been used by his family and party to secure votes and soon they will do away with him too! We need to continue to pray to God because we can only do so much and then God will step in and take over! He has a plan we don't know about, but in the end we will prevail - this is not the time for Christians to be passive - they must start to be active! Thank you again and I am so proud to hear Sarah is going to run for Governor. God continue to bless you, your family, our country, and former President Trump, his family and all associated with him and stuck with him. My last thought is that I hope VP Pence has not 'caved in'!

    Senior citizens would appreciate larger (even if slightly) font. Your bulletins are hard to read otherwise.
    Thank you for your faithful, honest reporting of what is happening.

    So tired of this and it will keep going on and on because no one is being held accountable. If something is not done there will never be another fair election. Is everyone afraid of them or what? President Trump exposed them for what they are and now they are trying to ruin him and his family. There are only a very few that stands with him. Please someone be brave enough to stand for what is right and put them in jail where they belong.

    The election was definitely rigged, but it is now obvious that we are not supposed to even consider investigating this fact. What can us "Common Folk" do to get answers? I live close to you in Florida and we could meet at that little ice cream shop in Blue Mountain!

    Sarah Huckabee for Governor!??????

    Dear Governor Huckabee,

    As we know, TDS has made many leftists so angry and spiteful, they will try just about anything to crush and destroy him. Not satisfied with him “losing” the election, they cannot stop their insane vendetta against him and are moving forward with a ridiculous impeachment.

    This brings to mind another story of intense hatred leading to an incredibly disgusting, political and hate driven trial

    In 897 AD, Pope Stephan VI so despised former former Pope Formosus (who had been dead 7 months), he conducted a posthumous trial. The former Pope was dug up and draped in papal robes, propped up in a chair for the trial. Pope Stephan VI venomously, screamed accusation at the corpse throughout the proceedings. He declared him guilty, stripped him of his papal title and had him re-buried.

    Still filled with hate and rage, Pope Stephan VI had Formosus dug up again and thrown into the Tiber river.

    The level of vindictive hatred toward President Trump and demanding punishment is, in my mind, as ludicrous as trying a corpse.

    God bless you and yours.

    Thank you for all your efforts and all you do to encourage. and for backing up our President Trump.

    And it was a great idea to put the scripture first I really appreciate it.
