Jan. 26-acting AG Sally Yates tells WH about Flynn - Fired 4 days later

Political Wire

“Here’s a twist that has top GOP sources buzzing: On Jan. 26, Sally Yates, then the acting attorney general, tells the White House that national security adviser Mike Flynn — who has just been grilled by FBI agents — had, in fact, discussed sanctions with the Russian ambassador during the transition, despite denying it, and therefore is vulnerable to Russian blackmail.”

“Four days later, on Jan. 30, Trump fires Yates, citing her unwillingness to enforce his border order.”

“Two weeks after her heads-up to the White House, the Flynn secret explodes.”

Said one insider: “They had to know she was radioactive, and that there would be consequences. It was either reckless, or totally incompetence. It leads back to the fact that nobody is in charge.”

1. It was really about Russia. And they had to humiliate and destroy her publicly.

2. Fired because she told the truth

And Trump can't have that. Also he can't have a strong woman that knows more than he does. I know that does not take much but to the insecure, thin-skinned buffoon it matters.
