    Why would the former head of DIA need this warning? https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/flynn-was-warned-by-trump-transition-officials-about-contacts-with-russian-ambassador/2017/05/05/b552c832-3192-11e7-8674-437ddb6e813e_story.html?utm_term=.86c39f02f291 …pic.twitter.com/rFLAbZKxJs

        And why did Kushner secretly meet with Kislyak in December, if this is accurate? Color me skeptical of this report.

        The report seems all about making Billingslea look good.

        Also, if Flynn was warned by transition team about Kislyak, wouldn’t Pence have known since he headed the transition?

        I've read the article 3x. It's smearing Flynn. Sources unnamed. WH cutting ties and hanging him out to dry. Sacrificial lamb = Flynn.

        Excellent article in The New Yorker: 'Michael Flynn, General Chaos.' I'm out of my free articles for the month or I would paste the link.

        Because not all who acquire positions of authority are smarter than a box of rocks. The current ()ffice occupant illustrates my point.

        Monitoring Russian generals' (or supply sgts') calls is DIA's job; spying on ambassadors is CIA's or State Dept's ?

        Flynn comes across as a loose cannon who barrels through life thumbing his nose at rules & consequences of his actions.
