Trump is operating with intelligence briefings given to him by McMaster and others .. Where is Flynn?

“Reid: Give him fake briefings.”
“Reporter: You’re basically telling the intelligence community to lie to him.”

“Flynn served as the assistant chief of staff, G2, XVIII Airborne Corps at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, from June 2001 and the director of intelligence at the Joint Task Force 180 in Afghanistan until July 2002. He commanded the 111th Military Intelligence Brigade from June 2002 to June 2004[1] and was the director of intelligence for Joint Special Operations Command from July 2004 to June 2007, with service in Afghanistan (Operation Enduring Freedom) and the Iraq War (Operation Iraqi Freedom). He served as the director of intelligence of the United States Central Command from June 2007 to July 2008, as the director of intelligence of the Joint Staff from July 2008 to June 2009, then the director of intelligence of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan from June 2009 to October 2010.[1][15]”

“In September 2011, Flynn was promoted to Lieutenant General and assigned to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. On April 17, 2012, President Barack Obama nominated Flynn to be the 18th director of the Defense Intelligence Agency.[16][17] Flynn took command of the DIA in July 2012.[18] In October 2012, Flynn announced plans to release his paper “VISION2020: Accelerating Change Through Integration”, a look at changes he believes are necessary for the DIA in the future.[19][20]”

“According to what Flynn had told in one final interview as DIA director, he felt like a lone voice in thinking that the United States was less safe from the threat of Islamic terrorism in 2014 than it was prior to the 9/11 attacks; he went on to believe that he was pressed into retirement for questioning the Obama administration’s public narrative that Al Qaeda was close to defeat.[26] Journalist Seymour Hersh wrote that “Flynn confirmed [to Hersh] that his agency had sent a constant stream of classified warnings … about the dire consequences of toppling [Syrian President] Assad.” Flynn recounted that his agency was producing intelligence reports indicating that radical Islamists were the main force in the Syrian insurgency and “that Turkey was looking the other way when it came to the growth of the Islamic State inside Syria”. According to Flynn, these reports “got enormous pushback from the Obama administration,” who he felt “did not want to hear the truth”. According to former DIA official W. Patrick Lang: “Flynn incurred the wrath of the White House by insisting on telling the truth about Syria … they shoved him out. He wouldn’t shut up.”[27] In an interview with Al Jazeera, Flynn criticized the Obama administration for its delay in supporting the opposition in Syria, thereby allowing for the growth of Al Nusra and other extremist forces: “when you don’t get in and help somebody, they’re gonna find other means to achieve their goals” and that “we should have done more earlier on in this effort, you know, than we did.”[28]”

“Flynn retired from the U.S. Army with 33 years of service on August 7, 2014.[29]”

A long but good read .. But quite disingenuous...

A long but good read .. But quite disingenuous to criticize his national security team headed by neocon McMaster when Huffington Post did their best to get rid of former National Security Advisor, Mike Flynn .. They should lay some blame on themselves ..

“That President Trump could be susceptible to such obvious manipulation is not surprising, given his predilection for counter-punching on Twitter for any perceived slight; that his national security team allowed him to be manipulated thus, and did nothing to sway Trump’s opinion or forestall action pending a thorough review of the facts, is scandalous.”

Donald Trump, Al Qaeda’s Useful Idiot

Responsibility for the chemical event in Khan Sheikhoun is still very much in question.

"President Trump launched the first major military strike of...

“President Trump launched the first major military strike of his presidency after heavy consultation with his national security adviser, H.R. McMaster.”

“The cruise missile attack on Syria capped off a week in which McMaster appeared to consolidate his power by ousting chief White House counselor Stephen Bannon from the National Security Council, though the balance of power inside the Trump administration remains fluid.”

“The Army lieutenant general showed a steady hand turning Trump’s rhetoric Syria into action, something the president’s team has struggled to accomplish on other fronts.”

“The Syria attack was McMaster’s first time in the spotlight since Trump picked him for the national security role in late February.”

“His ascension has pleased Republican security hawks, who were concerned with the direction of Trump’s foreign policy under his former national security adviser, retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.”

“McMaster reportedly tried to fire Ezra Cohen-Watnick, the NSC’s senior director for intelligence programs who was brought onto the council by Flynn. But he survived after Bannon and Kushner intervened.”
