So why take out Flynn?

[Todd.K]

As people dig deeper into the just released House transcripts it's becoming more clear.

The FBI disseminated a "summary" of the Kislyak call that was not unmasked because they never minimized it nor made a "finished" transcript. As I understand it that means it never went to NSA and wouldn't be found with any of these unmasking requests.

This brings up a couple of points:

1) Where did it come from? Some are speculating it's backdoor foreign intel, but the obvious answer seems to be right in front of us. If Papadopoulos started this with bar talk, why only a FISA on Page? Because Page was an easier target, and the purpose of the FISA was to get into, and then THREE HOP through the whole campaign.

2) All the unmasking revealed it was just a Tuesday in the Obama administration, we kinda already knew this because there were a bunch before the Kislyak call. Why is the Treasury Sec and FIVE of his underlings unmasking Flynn? The Flynn unmaskings are "tip of the iceberg" per Nunes.

3) The Flynn persecution claimed they have no recordings in response to a brady request, Comey and McCabe say there was never a finished transcript made. The original 302 of Flynn is "missing", even though the FBI has an entire computer system designed to keep them. So it seems entirely possible that Flynn was persecuted for lying, by comparing a summary of a 302 to a summary of the call.

Plus Flynn’s behavior with the Russian Government was patently stupid and so close to the line that he was likely to be sacrificed by the new Administration that would want to be chalking up wins.
In other words, he was seen as a scalp that could be collected.

Flynn is probably dirty and certainly not smart,

I’m interested to hear your evidence to support your statements that:

1. Gen Flynn’s behavior with the Russian Government was patently stupid and so close to the line.

2. Flynn is probably dirty and certainly not smart.

If Flynn's contacts with Gospodin Kislyak were innocent, why did he lie?

But Trump said he fired Flynn for lying to Pence when he denied having contracts with Kislyak.

No, the charge was lying to the FBI and at the time could you defend a DNI who did? This is 20/20 hindsight.

If Flynn's contacts with Gospodin Kislyak were illegal, why didn't the FBI or Mueller charge him with that?

The "fact" that Flynn lied and that the Logan Act could actually be charged, and charged against the incoming administration no less, is a giant fiction of the MSM. The FBI said Flynn did not show any signs of deception, and even after multiple edits from the "we won't let him" and "insurance policy" duo after the fact, the difference the persecution claims between what Flynn said to the FBI and "the truth" is quite ambiguous.

Flynn was fired by obama, for 2 reasons. First he and the hadji president didn't agree on Islam. Second Flynn was pushing the truth that China is a bigger enemy to the USA than Russia. Not saying Russia is our friend but the Chicoms are pure beyond evil.

And we handed them our industrial base on a silver platter.
