You know the story: Falsely accused, set up, had to be swept out of the way in the incoming new Trump administration for a host of reasons. Now, there are two theories as to why. One theory is that Flynn had to be sent packing because as Trump\u2019s new national security adviser, he would be aware of everything going on in the intelligence community &#8212; including that he would learn of the Crossfire Hurricane operation.<\/p>\n<p>He would learn of the coup &#8212; and once Flynn learned of the coup, it would end. He would blow it up. He would expose it. They had to get rid of him. They had to find a way to get Trump to fire him. They had to find a way to charge him with some kind of crime, and that\u2019s what he was set up for. The other theory is &#8212; and it\u2019s a fascinating one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mikeflynndefensefund.org\/contribute\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-350397 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-GO-FUND-ME-777.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-GO-FUND-ME-777.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-GO-FUND-ME-777-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-GO-FUND-ME-777-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The other theory is that it was Obama who despised Flynn for a host of reasons, included among them, Flynn totally disagreed with Obama\u2019s Iran deal. The Obama-Iran nuclear deal literally was&#8230; Do not doubt me on this. It was an attempt to transfer to Iran the balance of power in the Middle East from Israel. You and I, we looked at the Iran deal, and it never made any sense.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What in the world are we, the United States, doing empowering the state sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East to amp up their electrical grid to eventually go nuclear? What is in it for us? This makes no sense! Our ally is Israel.&#8221; And we couldn\u2019t understand it. And there was a natural trepidation to start talking about, &#8220;Well, you know, Obama, he may not like Israel that much,&#8221; blah, blah.<\/p>\n<p>It made no sense.<\/p>\n<p>But Flynn was a steadfast opponent. Remember, nobody thought Trump was gonna win. Trump winning the presidency shook everybody up. So this second theory is that Flynn had to be dispatched because he would have become an advocate for getting rid of the Iran nuclear deal, and he had experience with it. He was the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency during the Obama administration.<\/p>\n<p>He had been fired. And, remember, Obama himself, when he first met Trump the week after the election&#8230; You know, the new president goes by, meets the current president in the Oval Office, gets a little tour of the White House and so forth. At that first meeting, Obama told Trump not to hire Flynn. Now, Flynn had been very active in Trump\u2019s campaign.<\/p>\n<p>He was one of the first endorsers of significance. He\u2019s a lifelong patriot, a lifelong devotee of the U.S. military, and there was no way that he was going to sit around and watch the United States of America end up empowering a balance-of-power transfer to Iran, from anywhere, particularly Israel in the Middle East. So that\u2019s another theory why Flynn had to go.<\/p>\n<p>So you know what happened. Flynn was bankrupted. They threatened his son with bankruptcy. They broke him. He hired lawyers that didn\u2019t do much good for him. He hired lawyers that basically told him to plead guilty. He hired lawyers that basically told him to do whatever so that they could get paid. It wasn\u2019t until Flynn fired them, and went out and found Sidney Powell that his fortunes turned.<\/p>\n<p>Now, my point here is that here is one of the greatest patriotic military people in American history who was targeted for destruction by his own government and was destroyed &#8212; he was financially wiped out &#8212; and he didn\u2019t do anything. He did not do a single thing they charged him with. He only pled guilty to stop the bleeding and to make sure that they would stop going after his son.<\/p>\n<p>So I was told in the past couple days that Flynn literally is millions of dollars in debt and that on his <a href=\"https:\/\/mikeflynndefensefund.org\/contribute\/\">website there\u2019s a PayPal donation button<\/a>. So I went to his website, and I couldn\u2019t find it. I couldn\u2019t find the donate button. So I said, &#8220;Where the hell is this?&#8221; He said, &#8220;Well, you have to keep scrolling all the way to the bottom.&#8221; I said, &#8220;Okay.&#8221; So I scrolled all the way to the bottom, and there it is.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a tiny, little, yellow <a href=\"https:\/\/mikeflynndefensefund.org\/contribute\/\">PayPal donate button.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I thought (sigh), &#8220;Here\u2019s a guy who\u2019s been wiped out, did nothing but serve his country, was nothing but patriotic &#8212; who was targeted, set up, all of these things &#8212; and on his own website, he\u2019s got a GoFundMe page, but he doesn\u2019t even make it prominent.&#8221; You have to search for it. If you didn\u2019t know that it was there, you\u2019d never see it.<\/p>\n<p>To me, that is a sign of class. So I clicked on that button and it took me to the link, and I copied the link. I copied the site it sent me to and I sent it up to Koko at RushLimbaugh.com, and so if you have any interest whatsoever in helping General Flynn, we have made it easy for you, because we\u2019ve got that button, that little yellow PayPal link.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-350179\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/APP-052820-Flynn-1-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve already taken you to the page. We\u2019ve got the link for it, straight to it at RushLimbaugh.com. In addition, we\u2019ve got the link <a href=\"https:\/\/mikeflynndefensefund.org\/\">to his website<\/a>. So there are two links that Koko\u2019s put up, one to Flynn\u2019s website &#8212; and you\u2019ll see. Scroll to the very bottom and you\u2019ll find the &#8220;donate&#8221; button, and you have to work hard to find it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Work&#8221; in the sense that you think everything you need to see on a Web page is gonna happen on the home page, the first page you see, and it\u2019s not. You have to keep scrolling to find it. So we\u2019ve made it much easier for those that are interested. I\u2019m not gonna spell out the website address here. You\u2019ll never remember it all. Just go to RushLimbaugh.com at the top, the ticker. You\u2019ll find it and you\u2019ll see the link, and it will take you right to the <a href=\"https:\/\/mikeflynndefensefund.org\/contribute\/\">GoFundMe\/PayPal page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of people do these things, GoFundMe pages and so forth.<\/p>\n<p>If there\u2019s anybody that is deserving of assistance, I think it\u2019s Lieutenant General Michael Flynn. I still cringe at what happened to him. It\u2019s one of these things that when you grow up in the Middle West &#8212; a naive, Civics 101 America &#8212; it\u2019s not the kind of thing you think is capable of happening in your country. You have to get older and a little bit more cynical to understand that it totally can happen in America, and probably does a lot more than you\u2019d know.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, folks, <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2020\/05\/28\/latest-audience-model-run-shows-50-million-listeners\/\">the latest computer model projections of 50 million in the audience<\/a>, they must be right, because I just crashed my own website in I don\u2019t know how long. We also crashed the PayPal website, and we have crashed General Flynn\u2019s website. So just keep trying. It\u2019ll all eventually come back. Some people got through and said, &#8220;Look, the link that you provided must have been the one you used earlier, \u2019cause it\u2019s timed out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re gonna get it all fixed.<\/p>\n<p>You just gotta be patient.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s been a long time since I crashed my own website. I mean, we\u2019re built for a huge number of people. So our computer model projections, Mr. Snerdley, must be pretty close to accurate. Gotta be. Gotta be. The PayPal site and the Flynn site both crashed. The Flynn site, I\u2019m not surprised we crashed. (interruption) Well, it\u2019s expensive out there to host a lot of bandwidth.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it will be back, folks, and it will be up and running.<\/p>\n<p>I really thank you all for trying.<\/p>\n<p>Just be patient and we\u2019ll get it back up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Here is one of the greatest patriotic military people in American history who was targeted for destruction by his own government and was destroyed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":350397,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
