Homework 05-09-17 Sally Yates – What We Learned Yesterday

Yesterday we learned that Former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates saw a Category 5 Hurricane churning and heading for a direct hit on the White House. She tried to set off alarm bells, warning White House Counsel Don McGhan that Lt. General Michael Flynn had been compromised by the Russians and could be blackmailed. The White House wanted to know, “Why does it matter if one member of the White House National Security Team lies to another?” Ignoring her warnings, Lt. General Michael Flynn would not only stay on in the White House for 18 more days but would be included in a highly classified conversation with Russias’ Vladimir Putin. Sean Spicer would refer to Ms. Yate’s warnings as a “heads-up” while Michael Flynn Jr. would apply for his own security clearance. Two riveting moments: Ted Cruz is shamed by his very own “Mona Lisa Vito” and Clapper admitting he was out of the loop with regard to Comey’s investigation.

Homework 05-08-17 I Think Trump Knows He’s Going To Get Fried Today

BIG day today. Former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates will testify to the Senate that she gave strong warnings to the incoming Trump Administration regarding General Michael Flynn’s contacts with Russia. Yates was fired on Trumps 10th day in office, for refusing to defend the Unconstitutional Muslim Ban, but there is a great deal of suspicion that it was her warnings about Flynn’s Russia ties that did her in. One “tell” that Donald is scared crap-less, was how hard the White House plotted to keep Sally Yates from testifying before the House Intelligence Committee in March and another is The Donald’s misspelled crazy tweets this morning.
