Top Former Intel Official: Trump Has To Clean House At The CIA

[Geee]

Dailey Caller:

Michael Flynn’s resignation was an intelligence community hit job of the kind typically reserved for enemies of the state, former intelligence officials told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

 

“I’ve never seen anything like this before,” retired Col. James Waurishuk told TheDCNF’s Richard Pollock, referring to Flynn’s ouster from the Trump administration. Waurishuk is a veteran military intelligence official who served on the National Security Council. “We’ve never seen to the extent that those in the intelligence community are using intelligence apparatus and tools to be used politically against an administration official.”

 

Flynn resigned as national security adviser after news broke alleging he spoke with the Russian ambassador about sanctions before Trump took office — potentially in violation of federal law — and then lied to Vice President Mike Pence about the call. The White House maintains Flynn didn’t break any laws, but couldn’t stay on because he lost the trust of Pence and Trump.

EXCLUSIVE: How The Nation’s Spooks Played The Game ‘Kill Mike Flynn’

 

National Security Advisor Gen. Michael T. Flynn (ret.) — who resigned Monday — was the victim of a “hit job” launched by intelligence operatives, Obama government holdovers and former Obama national security officials, according to former intelligence officials who spoke with The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group.

 

The talk within the tight-knit community of retired intelligence officers was that Flynn’s sacking was a result of intelligence insiders at the CIA, NSA and National Security Council using a sophisticated “disinformation campaign” to create a crisis atmosphere. The former intel officers say the tactics hurled against Flynn over the last few months were the type of high profile hard-ball accusations previously reserved for top figures in enemy states, not for White House officials.

 

“This was a hit job,” charged retired Col. James Williamson, a 32-year Special Forces veteran who coordinated his operations with the intelligence community.
