In an illuminating conversation yesterday, seasoned political strategist Roger Stone engaged in a substantive dialogue with the retired United States Army Lieutenant General and former National Security Adviser to President Trump, Michael Flynn. This insightful interview shed new light on Flynn’s beliefs regarding a deep state conspiracy to undermine former President Donald Trump’s administration, implicating several high-profile figures from the Obama administration in the process.
Roger Stone set the stage for the interview with a well deserved powerful introduction of General Flynn. Stone praised Flynn for his unwavering patriotism and his strategic acumen, hailing him as one of the finest Americans he’s ever known and a geopolitical genius, predicting an auspicious future of public service for Flynn.
In this revealing discourse, Stone asked Flynn about a crucial briefing that occurred on January 6, 2017, at Trump Tower. This briefing was delivered by then CIA Director John Brennan, then NSA Director Clapper, and then FBI Director Comey to the newly elected President Trump. The subject was Russia’s alleged interference in the 2016 election through the purported theft of Democratic Party emails.
Flynn, who had set up and coordinated the briefing as the incoming National Security Advisor, expressed skepticism regarding the presentation’s veracity. He specifically recalled Admiral Mike Rogers, then-director of the National Security Agency, providing the majority of the presentation and rating his confidence in the information as only “moderate.” Flynn noted the visible discomfort of Brennan, Clapper, and Comey, hinting at possible ulterior motives.
The interview then took a surprising twist when Flynn shed light on a less-known meeting held in the Oval Office on January 5, 2017. According to Flynn, this meeting included then-President Obama, then-Vice President Biden, Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Susan Rice, and Sally Yates, the then-Deputy Attorney General. Flynn claims that the meeting’s primary purpose was to devise a strategy to remove him from his pivotal position as National Security Advisor.
Stone picked up on Flynn’s narrative, highlighting that the prevailing assumption about the meeting was that it was primarily about the upcoming briefing for President-elect Trump. However, Stone and Flynn concurred that this was a mere facade to mask the true motive: to orchestrate Flynn’s removal.
According to Flynn, this meeting and subsequent events signified the commencement of a genuine conspiracy, not a baseless theory, designed to undermine then-President-elect Trump. These dates marked the inception of an elaborate plan to destabilize a duly elected President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, treasonous as it was.
Flynn expressed extreme disappointment with Special Counsel John Durham’s probe, noting the complete lack of effort to bring key players such as Obama, Biden, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Yates, and Rice into the fold for questioning under subpoena was unforgivable. Flynn suggested that this omission signified a significant oversight on Durham’s part and hinted at a cover-up by the Department of Justice and Durham.
The interview marked a significant moment in the conservative discourse around the inception of the Trump presidency, putting forth some bold claims which seemed to be based in fact.
Whether these allegations will gain more traction or be verified remains to be seen perhaps by congressional committees, however, one thing is certain: this conversation between Roger Stone and General Michael Flynn has reignited the debate on possible deep state machinations during the early days of the Trump administration. We sincerely hope that justice does prevail in this, an era where the Department of Justice and FBI have lost all semblance of credibility.
