CAIR Unhappy With Trump’s Reported Pick for National Security Adviser

(CNSNews.com) – President-elect Donald Trump has offered the key post of national security adviser former Defense Intelligence Agency chief Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn (ret.), the Associated Press reported Thursday, citing an unnamed senior Trump official.

Flynn, who served as head of the DIA from 2012 to 2014, has been advising the Trump campaign on national security issues.

He is also an outspoken critic of radical Islam and shari’a (Islamic law), and has attracted the ire of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

Earlier Thursday, CAIR issued a statement urging Trump not to appoint him “because of his history of anti-Muslim comments and associations.”

My thoughts exactly.  Anything that makes CAIR unhappy must be a good pick.

This is also the same guy who has been shown to have had lobbying ties to Turkey; but he seems okay nonetheless, I know he was under scrutiny for that.

The position of Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, who has reportedly been offered the role of national security adviser in Donald Trump’s White House, in the national security briefings that began last summer has been questioned by the US media over his lobbying company’s ties with a Dutch company, linked to Turkey’s President Erdoğan, for providing all-source intelligence support.

The US media outlets reported that Flynn promised to severe his ties with his company if he returns to the government services, however started to attend intelligence briefings for Trump in August while working for foreign clients.

And the MSM thinks that will disqualify him in the eyes of those who voted for Trump?

Couldn't get a better endorsement than a rejection by CAIR.

Interesting how the guilt trips to be 'politically correct' aren't working!  I find this very refreshing actually.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

True.  I have been so tired of the pandering to CAIR.  If Trump and Flynn do things right they strengthen the country and its laws.  If they do it wrong they shatter what makes America great.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
