Award-winning investigative journalist John Soloman uncovered a bombshell in newly declassified documents.

The newly declassified documents are FBI memos, interview notes, and court filings. Solomon reported that these docs now prove that shortly after President Trump’s January 20, 2017 inauguration, the FBI knew that General Michael Flynn was not a Russian agent.

The FBI also knew that Trump was not involved in any “Russian collusion,” yet that absurd conspiracy theory dragged on and on.

In addition, the notes also indicated that everyone knew Christopher Steele’s dossier was likely bogus. What a scam job they pulled on the American people.

Just the News is John Solomon’s new website. And he obtained a Special Counsel letter from 2018 sent to Flynn’s lawyers that said, “According to an internal DOJ memo dated January 30, 2017, after the Jan. 24 interview, the FBI advised that based on the interview the FBI did not believe Flynn was acting as an agent of Russia.”

The piecemeal release of FBI files in the Russia collusion investigation has masked an essential fact: James Comey’s G-men had substantially debunked the theory that Donald Trump’s campaign conspired with Moscow by the time the 45th president was settling into the Oval Office, according to declassified memos, court filings and interviews. And that means a nascent presidency and an entire nation were put through two more years of lacerating debate over an issue that was mostly resolved in January 2017 inside the bureau’s own evidence files. The proof is now sitting in plain view. In rapid fire sequence in January 2017, U.S. officials: received multiple warnings about the credibility of informant Christopher Steele and his dossier;

affirmed key targets of the FBI counterintelligence investigation made exculpatory statements denying collusion to undercover sources;

concluded retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, Trump’s first national security adviser, was not engaged in collusion with the Russians. The latter revelation has mostly escaped much notice, contained in a single sentence in a once-sealed court motion filed by Flynn defense attorney Sidney Powell that requested what is known as Brady material, or evidence of innocence. That motion dated Sept. 11, 2019 requested access to “an internal DOJ document dated January 30, 2017, in which the FBI exonerated Mr. Flynn of being ‘an agent of Russia.’” [Just The News]

Given all of this information, the U.S. government still went ahead and prosecuted General Flynn. It wasn’t about “Russia,” it was just about nailing him on something. The media would spin the rest into a negative for Trump. It was all about shifting public perception. The problem was, most Americans were completely tuned out of this “Russia business.”

Solomon goes on to say that U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan, who has presided over the case “so far has concluded that the exoneration of Flynn on the Russia collusion charge wasn’t relevant to his conviction since he plead guilty to a different crime, making a false statement to the FBI.”

Well, one could argue that he’d have never been interviewed by the FBI if they hadn’t trumped up this silly and fake probe to begin with. But Flynn was caught in a perjury trap and that’s what they got him on.

Would they have preferred he was a Russian agent? Of course they would. But they knew that wasn’t going to happen so they set a new trap and ruined this patriot’s life.
