Did the FBI retaliate against Michael Flynn by launching Russia probe?

[Dashinka 25,885]

The FBI launched a criminal probe against former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn two years after the retired Army general roiled the bureau’s leadership by intervening on behalf of a decorated counterterrorism agent who accused now-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe and other top officials of sexual discrimination, according to documents and interviews.

Flynn’s intervention on behalf of Supervisory Special Agent Robyn Gritz was highly unusual, and included a letter in 2014 on his official Pentagon stationary, a public interview in 2015 supporting Gritz’s case and an offer to testify on her behalf. His offer put him as a hostile witness in a case against McCabe, who was soaring through the bureau’s leadership ranks.

The FBI sought to block Flynn’s support for the agent, asking a federal administrative law judge in May 2014 to keep Flynn and others from becoming a witness in her Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) case, memos obtained by Circa show. Two years later, the FBI opened its inquiry of Flynn.

The EEOC case, which is still pending, was serious enough to require McCabe to submit to a sworn statement to investigators, the documents show.

The deputy director’s testimony provided some of the strongest evidence in the case of possible retaliation, because he admitted the FBI opened an internal investigation into Gritz’s personal conduct after learning the agent “had filed or intended to file” a sex discrimination complaint against her supervisors.

Interesting...considering it is coming from Trump mouthpiece Sinclair broadcasting. 

Any thoughts on why he wanted to bargain for testimony in congress?

I laughed when I saw that as well. I was like so now it's not "Thanks Obama" it's "Thanks Amazon". hahaha

[Cyberfx1024 7,980]

This is not Obama or the FBI's fault at all because even I knew that Flynn had really questionable ties to Russia even before the election. I have said that numerous times on here that Flynn was a POS to the utmost degree. He had very questionable ties to both Russia and Edrogan as well.
