    ‘Obamagate’ Isn’t A Conspiracy Theory, It’s The Biggest Political Scandal Of Our Time

    And the media know it.

    Davidson-headshot-1.
    By John Daniel Davidson
    MAY 13, 2020

    When former president Barack Obama told supporters last week that the Justice Department’s decision
    to drop the case against former White House National Security Adviser Mike Flynn is a “threat to the rule of law,”
    he was relying wholly on the fiction, willingly propagated for years by a pliant media, that the Russia-Trump collusion
    probe launched by his administration was lawful and legitimate.


    But of course it wasn’t. A string of recently released documents have confirmed that the entire Russia-Trump investigation,
    which eventually entrapped Flynn and forced then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to recuse himself,
    was an unprecedented abuse of power that amounted to an organized effort by the Obama administration t
    o nullify the results of the 2016 presidential election. It was in effect an attempted coup.



    If you haven’t picked that up from the news media, it’s not your fault. Instead of grappling
    with the implications of newly released details about what Obama officials were doing to undermine
    the incoming Trump administration during the transition, the mainstream media
    have fixated on Trump’s use of the term “Obamagate,” dismissing it as a conspiracy theory.

    A Brief History of the Flynn Case

    This is to be expected. For years now the media have done everything they can
    to push the Trump-Russia collusion hoax—even after a years-long special counsel investigation
    by Robert Mueller turned up nothing—using the complexity of the scheme
    to hide the greatest political scandal of our time in plain sight.


    A key aspect of that scheme was—and is—to make the case against Flynn appear legitimate.

    Flynn faced trumped-up charges that he misled FBI agents about conversations
    he had with then-Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak in the weeks before Trump’s inauguration.


    (As the incoming national security adviser, Flynn was doubtless having conversations
    with numerous heads of state and ambassadors during this time, so there was nothing
    unusual about him talking to the Russian ambassador.)


    The Obama administration already knew about the conversations with Kislyak
    because it had recordings of them thanks to a series of investigations it spun out of the Crossfire Hurricane
    counterintelligence probe of the Trump campaign.


    Crossfire Hurricane, launched in the summer of 2016, was itself a bogus investigation
    based on the Steele dossier—an entirely fraudulent document riddled
    with Russian disinformation and paid for by the Democratic Party.



    So why did the FBI want to interview Flynn ahead of Trump’s inauguration in January 2017?

    Top brass at the FBI weren’t exactly sure about their approach, but they knew they needed to get Flynn out of the way.

    As the bureau’s former head of counterintelligence, Bill Priestap, recorded in his notes,
    “What is our goal? Truth/Admission, or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?”


    Apparently the Obama administration settled on trying to entrap him in a lie.

    The recent disclosure of an early January 2017 Oval Office meeting attended by Obama,
    vice president Joe Biden, National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates,
    and FBI Director James Comey, confirms the administration’s plan to hide the Russia probe
    from the incoming Trump team—including Flynn.


    The idea was to use the Kislyak calls as a pretext to keep the Flynn investigation open,
    even though there was no reason to do so.


    After months of spying on him, the FBI had found nothing to indicate Flynn was conspiring with the Russians.

    As Rice wrote in an email to herself after the meeting, “President Obama
    said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team,
    we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.”



    The point was to keep the Flynn investigation open as a way for Obama holdovers like Comey,
    Yates, and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe to continue the Russia-Trump collusion probe
    even after Trump took office


    —and keep Flynn, Trump’s national security adviser, out of the loop.

    Since there was no reason to keep investigating Flynn, the Obama administration invented one:
    the preposterous notion that he intentionally misled Vice President Mike Pence about his conversations
    with Kislyak and then lied about it to the FBI.
    There’s no evidence this happened, but even if there were it wouldn’t matter.


    As the Justice Department explained in its decision to drop the Flynn case,
    the investigation of Flynn was “untethered to, and unjustified by, the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation.”


    Later, top FBI and Justice Department officials gave the House Intelligence Committee
    different answers about why they were pursuing Flynn. Comey, McCabe, Yates,
    and Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Mary McCord all gave conflicting testimony
    about the “primary purpose” of the FBI’s interview with Flynn, ranging from the outlandish notion
    that he violated the Logan Act


    —a constitutionally dubious 1799 law forbidding unauthorized citizens from negotiating with foreign governments

    —to the concocted charge that he lied to the FBI, which even the agents that conducted the interview with him didn’t believe.
    Here’s Why Americans Need to Understand the Flynn Case

    The Flynn case is just one piece of a much larger story about how the Obama administration
    —with the full knowledge and support of both Obama and Biden
    —targeted incoming Trump officials in a failed attempt
    to cripple the new administration with allegations it had colluded with Moscow.



    The complexity of their scheme, and the efforts to hide it and mislead the American people, are frustrating.

    The cast of characters—from high-ranking Obama administration officials to relative nobodies loosely associated
    with Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign—is long, as is the timeline of events.


    Details have come out slowly, in fits and starts, over the course of years. Following all the leaks
    and declassified transcripts and congressional hearings requires constant vigilance,
    and if you don’t keep up with it you can easily lose the thread.


    That all works to the advantage of those who perpetrated this hoax, because it’s easy to get overwhelmed
    and tune it all out, or simply accept the corporate media’s deceptive reporting. But the ongoing revelations
    about the FBI’s targeting of Flynn can’t be ignored. They demand a full accounting.


    If ever there was a threat to the rule of law, it was the Obama administration’s abuse of power
    and its weaponization of intelligence agencies in an attempt to take down Trump.
    However convoluted it might seem, pay attention to it. It’s the biggest political scandal of our time.
