Hi anons, newfag here, though I've lurqed a little bit here previously a few years ago. I don't know how deeply this has been discussed before, but I wanted to share this with you: I personally know someone that flagged Michael Flynn's finances in 2017. I'm pretty sure the statute of limitations is five years for FARA violations, so no legal consequences will happen. I was told about this in 2020. I would like to state that I don't have an ounce of ill will towards him or his family. He was clearly targeted and paid a significant price for being loyal to Trump. I would also like to state that I'm not one of those Lin Wood-following retards. That being said, there were suspicious wires associated with his Flynn Intel Group that totaled $530,000 from a Dutch shell corporation, but it gets stranger from there. Suffice to say nobody who doesn't need to know knows exactly where the all the money came from, though it allegedly involved the Turkish Government and possibly an Israeli gas company. The FinCEN documents are here:

I know it was contributed by BuzzFeed and how garbage it was when it came to the Steele Dossier, but stay with me, here.
This is one of the few news articles that discusses it without an obvious left-wing bias:

I'm not saying he's Deep State, but what really bakes my noodle is that the corrupt FBI had this information and didn't try to charge him, when they charged him with lying to the FBI. I do know they have discretion as to whether or not to charge somebody, and a common thread for being charged with these violations is that the amount totals $1,000,000 and a knowledge of wrongdoing. Still, I think this is more or less the extent of publicly available information, and though I would like to see more digging, I don't know what more can be found via open-source methods. I understand that this raises more questions than answers, and nothing will probably happen. I just didn't know what to do with this information.
I did a little more digging and found this article from 2018 that says that more people involved were charged as part of Mueller's investigation:

His business partner, Bijan Rafiekian, was convicted, then his charges were dismissed for insufficient evidence, then his conviction was reinstated last year. Bottom line: I don't think he's necessarily a bad guy, but I have some questions.
