Trump is so clueless, he talks about the space force flag as being really cool, and super duper missiles, referring to hypersonic cruise and glide vehicles that operate in the 100,000 ft. altitude range. Maybe someone should tell him that outer space begins at 300,000 plus.

I dunno. Seems to a simpleton like me that trying to block, hinder, thwart and interfere with the peaceful transition of power might be something kinda huge. I remember all the talking heads and the Bobbies of the world getting all worked up over “Trump will not accept the results of the Election!!!!!.” This was before a single vote was cast.
How absolutely marvelously Alinksy of them.
Yep, this Omabagate thang is all about somebody(s) not accepting the results of the election and trying to stop, hinder, thwart, and definitely interfere with the peaceful transition of power, a cherished American tradition.
There ought to be a law against that, one would think. Having the US Government spying on and leaking bold faced lies about a political rival running for President is not really their job classification.
If nothing else, it is worth while talking about Obamagate. Better than the virus, which is getting so boring. This Obamagate thang could get legs after all these years. Go figure. But, I have been wrong before. I thought that Lolita Express dude’s story had all the markings of the story of the decade….but after one day of testimony he up and killed himself. End of that Lolita Express story.

Re: Flynn unmasking. Beware the false narrative. Andrew McCarthy
‘Unmasking? The Real Story Is When Flynn Was Not Masked in the First Place’
“I hypothesize, then, that Flynn was not unmasked in connection with the December 29 Kislyak call. Either the CIA monitored the call directly or a friendly foreign intelligence service — whether subtly tasked by U.S. intelligence or knowing that U.S. intelligence would be very interested — intercepted the call and passed it along, probably to the CIA. At the time, Kislyak was likely outside the United States, where the CIA would not have needed FISA authorization to monitor him. And while Flynn is an American citizen, he was not only outside the country, he was already regarded by the Obama-era intelligence community as a clandestine agent of Russia — i.e., not an innocent American citizen whose surveillance was merely incidental.”
https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/05/michael-flynn-unmasking-real-story-is-when-he-was-not-masked-in-the-first-place/
And Stephen Halper was there spreading stories about Flynn having a trist with a young Russian agent about the time the Obama Administration was looking for a reason to fire Flynn. The young “Russian agent “ was a Russian Historian researcher student whom happened to be invited to attend a seminar event hosted by the….drumroll please……by the Cambridge Institutive. Halper’s digs. What a coincidence. Oh, the Flynn had an fling with an Russian operative narrative got blown out of the water by the young lady. :).

Thoughts about Flynn.
The first thoughts about an incoming NSA having his phone burn off the hook with getting things launched and talking to everybody all over the world conveying their congratulations and concerns. Why is the Flynn talking to the Russian Ambassador even news? Every Department is scrambling to hit the ground running. Unless, of course, some bad stuff was in a call and there wasn’t. Geeze, get a life. That’s normal.
The second impression (lasting) is the Obama Administration waited to release new sanctions on Russia until Flynn was out of the country. Flynn was vacationing in the Dominican Republic and Obama dropped the Russian sanctions before going out the door, the Cabal fully knowing that the Russian Ambassador would immediately call Flynn. And they were waiting. They had every word of what was said. Not a crime. If you are an American out of the country, well, those are different rules to play by. Those rules too, are not a crime, and CIA intelligent collecting internationally also not a crime. But that is looking at the tactics, not the strategy. The symptoms, not the disease.
But that was news 2 1/2 years ago and it’s just too much energy to bring the local lefties up to speed. Anyway.
A bottomline: Flynn, IF he wasn’t taken out, would have had access to everything they were doing. The goods. Plus, it’s was personal for them to eliminate Flynn which made it particularly heinous watching how gleeful and vindictive they were taking the General out. They really got a sick pleasure out of it. They couldn’t contain themselves. It’s was like coyotes dog-piling on fallen prey.
I know, I know. It’s just a Trump distraction. Completely routine. Just routine going to my office like any other day or year at the Department and spy on the Republican nominee
