The Witch Hunt Never Ends: US Army Now Targeting Gen. Flynn Over Phony “Emoluments” Clause
GP ^ | March 13, 2021 | ProTrumpNews Staff

The Witch Hunt continues against Trump supporters.

Now, it’s the US Army targeting General Michael Flynn over the phony “emoluments” clause.

The Washington Post reported:

The Defense Department’s internal watchdog has concluded a long-delayed investigation into Michael Flynn, defense officials said Friday, sending its findings to the Army in a case that could bring tens of thousands of dollars in financial penalties for President Donald Trump’s first national security adviser.

The investigation focuses on Flynn’s acceptance of money from Russian and Turkish interests before joining the Trump administration, a potential violation of the Constitution’s emoluments clause. With few exceptions, U.S. officials, including retired service members like Flynn, are prohibited from accepting money or gifts from foreign governments. Flynn retired from the Army as a three-star general in 2014.

The inspector general’s investigation, opened in April 2017, was put on hold for more than three years amid a broader scandal that included a criminal investigation of Flynn by the Justice Department — part of what would become the investigation of Trump’s first presidential campaign and Russian interference in the 2016 election led by former FBI director Robert S. Mueller III.

They just can't leave this upstanding patriot alone. Flynn knows about Obama and Biden's shady Iran nuclear deal and I can see Biden wanting him back in jail during his term.

I don’t know if he did, but Trump should have pardoned him for a time period, and not just for that fake perjury case.

The military is being completely politicized by the left foot their dirty work.

It’s clear for all to see glad my family members are retired from the army.

This crap won’t end until our side hits back hard. Maybe that is Flynn releasing something powerful and classified that he has saved. Maybe something else.

But like any bully, they won’t stop until they get a bloody nose.

there comes a point where the continuing harassment turns into ‘malicious prosecution and abuse of process’

Is this another “help us throw Trump into prison for life or we’ll bankrupt you and your family with attorney fees”?

Proof (as if needed) that the corruption has gone into the only part of the government that is largely honorable.

Folks, this is dangerous. Liberal military leaders WILL fire on you. Guaranteed. They are slime, no matter that they might be military. Hopefully, our REAL soldiers will be aware of the leader slime and take appropriate action when required.

He ruffled some pretty senior feathers of the generals and defense contractors making money in Afghanistan. He ruffled a lot more feathers in his stint at the DIA throughout the Intel community. All of those feathers deserved to be heavily ruffled and not a one of them could stand to let him get away with challenging the deep state order of things.

He’s knows all of Obama’s secrets. Obama hated him and wanted him striped of his uniform. We have to support this man, the government, with it’s endless amout of money, will bankrupt him once again.

Maybe the Obama admin should be investigated for that time one of Gulen’s followers assassinated the Russian ambassador. The Clintons loved Gulen, too.

So much for the rumor that our military is actually in charge, and in SUPPORT of PDJT.

They may be in charge, alright. But, not for our side. :-(

Paging Sidney Powell.

Isn’t she also a military attorney? I thought I’d read that.
