Bombshell: Strzok Reopened Flynn Case After FBI Closed It; Trump Says He Would ‘Certainly Consider’ Bringing Flynn Back Into His Administration

By WND. Newly unsealed court filings show disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok reopened the investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn after it had been closed due to a lack of evidence.

The closure, according to a memo, was three weeks prior to the controversial “ambush” interview of Flynn at the White House that resulted in him being charged with perjury, The Washington Times reported.

Among the other evidence unsealed this week in the Flynn case is a handwritten note by the FBI’s former head of counterintelligence, Bill Priestap, showing agents discussed whether they should try “to get [Flynn] to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired.”

The Jan. 4, 2017, FBI memo, unsealed Thursday, said the investigation of Flynn, dubbed Crossfire Razor, had been closed due to “the absence of any derogatory information or lead information.” . . .

However, Strzok, the case’s supervising agent, ordered in a text message the same day as the memo that the cased be reopened. (Read more from “Bombshell: Strzok Reopened Flynn Case After FBI Closed It” HERE)

Trump Says He Would ‘Certainly Consider’ Bringing Flynn Back Into His Administration

By Fox News. President Trump said Thursday he would “certainly consider” bringing retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn back into his administration, adding he believes his former national security adviser will be “fully exonerated” in light of new evidence in the federal case against him.

“It looks to me like Flynn would be fully exonerated based on everything I see. I’m not a judge but I have a different type of power,” Trump said while taking questions at an address on protecting America’s seniors amid coronavirus.

“I don’t think I would have to use that power,” Trump said when asked if he would consider pardoning Flynn. “Hopefully we won’t have to get there.” . . .

The president on Thursday said he would “certainly consider” bringing Flynn back into his administration. “He’s a fine man,” he added. “Yeah, I would.” Trump declined to say in what capacity he might bring Flynn back, adding he hadn’t given much thought to the matter, but pointed to new evidence in the Flynn case revealed this week.

Nunes: We Knew From Day One Michael Flynn Was Innocent — Because FBI Top Officials ‘Told Us so’

By Breitbart. Representative Devin Nunes (R-CA), the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, says it is a no-brainer that former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn was innocent from the beginning and that he was a victim of an overzealous FBI.

Nunes told Fox Business Network’s Maria Bartiromo the sources of documents promoting the notion that the 2016 Trump campaign was in cahoots with Russia to steer the outcome of that election warranted an investigation, given they were used to justify the Department of Justice and the FBI’s handling of Flynn. . .

“So you know, we’re running an investigation, but the problem is, is that you know, we have a small team on the House Intelligence Committee, but the bottom line with Flynn, is this — Maria,” Nunes said. “We knew from essentially day one, early on in 2017, and that he was innocent. How do we know that? Because the top officials at the FBI told us so. This wasn’t rocket science. Then you talked about the report that we did, so we have the gold standard. The House Republican report is really the gold standard of reports. In fact, there are no other reports to even look at because the others are all based on lies or innuendo or corruption, OK?” So our report was right at the time, and you may recall this, but we had to fight for nearly two months. Our report we put it out, we said there was no evidence of collusion.” (Read more from “Nunes: We Knew From Day One Michael Flynn Was Innocent — Because FBI Top Officials ‘Told Us so’” HERE)
