Private-sector backers of a controversial Middle East nuclear plan worked with former national security adviser Mike Flynn to promote it inside the White House, to the point of sending him a draft memo for the president to sign authorizing the project.

I'm out of clicks at WSJ.



EVEN AFTER FLYNN'S OUSTED, THEY KEPT PUSHING THE PLAN! 🔥


Kushner was an integral part, knew all about the plan, as well as co-developer of Trump International Hotel DC, Tom Barrack.


I'm just stunned at this. My God. You bastards

Now is a good time to remember this --> Kushner, Bannon & Flynn met with Jordan's King while Flynn was pushing the for-profit deal to partner with Russia to put nuclear plants in Jordan...

treason usually requires an act during a war against an enemy. We aren't in a state of war with the russians.

Espionage and sedition are distinct possibilities though. At least for trump sr.

intensely interested in the Middle East and has been, of course, involved with Flynn and Russia.

I was looking today to find any news of Rohrabacher's aide, Paul Behrends, who was forced off a congressional committee in advance of impending scandal last summer, and essentially nothing since July. Makes me wonder if Mueller's team doesn't already have Behrends legally zip-tied somewhere.

Making one wonder is that Behrends also links billionaire techno-creep Peter Thiel and Russia. Thiel's Palantir is a data analytics system that is extensively used in some areas of our government. Thiel, of course, was a major early Trump supporters and is also on Facebook's board and has been divesting himself recently of most of his shares. He doesn't have to be involved with Russia, of course, but he's actively seditious, and we need him taken down.

Salt Lake City to announce the whacking of the Eskalante and Ears Monuments. Most likely he will announce with major fan flare,the expansion of the Uranium Mines near Fredonia Arizona. Which btw,are on the Bears Ears Monuments and Eskalante Monuments.

Why is Jordan and KSA different?

Part of the JCPOA involved Iran giving their excess enriched uranium to Russia for "safe keeping"

No one had a problem with that, including PBO.

Please note I am well aware that flynn and others failed to disclose their lobbying interests, that's the real issue here imo.
