Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice’s depiction of an early 2017 Oval Office meeting of top political and law-enforcement officials as being conducted “by the book,” is being challenged by newly released notes written by former FBI agent Peter Strzok, which directly implicate Joe Biden — the current Democratic presidential nominee — in a scheme to undermine President Trump and his administration.
The newly released notes may have far-reaching consequences for the upcoming 2020 elections and Biden, as the current Democratic presidential nominee, specifically. The bombshell revelations will, no doubt, be a major focus in the ongoing investigation, led by US Attorney John Durham, into the origins of the Russia investigation.
On January 5, 2017, a meeting took place at the White House’s Oval Office with then-President Barack Obama, then-Vice President Joe Biden, former FBI Director James Comey, former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, and former National Security Advisor Susan Rice all in attendance.
The notes produced by former FBI agent Peter Strzok described officials in the Oval Office discussing transcripts of the private calls, intercepted by the US intelligence community, of retired US Army lieutenant general Michael Flynn conversing with Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak, as well as how to proceed against Flynn.
Strozk’s notes indicate that Biden personally raised the idea of using a fraudulent pretext to investigate the incoming national security advisor Michael Flynn, in order to undermine him and the incoming Trump administration.
Around the time of the Oval Office meeting, a previously released document dated January 4, 2017, showed that the FBI had moved to end its investigation into whether Flynn was a Russian agent for lack of any evidence, until Strzok intervened to keep the case open.
The same document shows Strzok told an unknown individual that same day that the “7th floor [is] involved,” apparently referring to senior FBI leadership at the bureau’s headquarters.
Strzok also notes that Comey told the other meeting officials that the Flynn-Kislyak phone calls appear “legit” [“legitimate”], indicating that the meeting’s objective was to find a pretext to undermine Flynn and the Trump administration.
That pretext was provided by none other than Joe Biden.
According to Strzok’s notes, Biden referenced the Logan Act, an obscure law banning negotiation by unauthorized American citizens with foreign governments in disputes with the U.S.
The act was only used twice to indict Americans – once in 1802 and again in 1852 – with neither ending in a conviction.
Flynn’s attorney, Sidney Powell, writing in the Justice Department’s dismissal motion of Flynn’s case, concurred that Biden had personally raised the idea of the Logan Act, “which became an admitted pretext for the investigation against Flynn.”
