So the National Security Advisor in the White House was a foreign agent for Turkey. He filed the paperwork retroactively. Hmm. Maybe because he has to file his taxes which will show income of $530,000 from Turkey.
And just a couple days after this revelation, Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired the remaining US attorneys subject to the administration's wishes. Hmmm. I wonder if these firings might be to assure that the Flynn revelation isn't investigated.
Or maybe the firing of 46 federal attorneys - clean out your desk by the end of the day type firings - is a smoke screen. Maybe Trump realized that the US Attorney for the Southern District of NY - a particularly dogged investigator who has brought many a New York state politician - is a major risk to Trump himself. Not to mention that such a sudden transition will ruin or at best severely delay current investigations, since Trump doesn't have any replacements lined up.
My personal guess is that Trump wants to make sure his own skin is safe and getting rid of the one zealous Attorney for the Southern District of NY will help that wish along.
