NBC: Flynn-backed plan to transfer nuclear tech to Saudis may have broken laws, say whistleblowers
Investigators fear President Trump is still considering the plan, which was pushed by Flynn and Trump friend Tom Barrack.
WASHINGTON — Whistleblowers from within President Donald Trump's National Security Council have told a congressional committee that efforts by former national security adviser Michael Flynn to transfer sensitive nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia may have violated the law, and investigators fear Trump is still considering it, according to a new report obtained by NBC News.
The House Oversight Committee has formally opened an investigation into the matter, releasing an interim staff report that adds new details to previous public accounts of how Flynn sought to push through the nuclear proposal on behalf of a group he had once advised. Tom Barrack, a prominent Trump backer with business ties to the Middle East, also became involved in the project, the report says.
Just days after Trump's inauguration, backers of the project sent documents to Flynn for Trump to approve, including a draft Cabinet memo stating that the president had appointed Barrack as a special representative to implement the plan and directing agencies to support Barrack's efforts, the report says.

LIP READING TELLS A LOT
NBC has a reliable source died long ago. Clearly the Dems pushed this story as part of the ploy to have bad news, true or false doesn't matter, about Trump every day dominate the news cycle.
there are 7 sources cited for this article at the main listing! clearly, the Dems did what? see how off the mark you are!
Rep. Elijah Cummings Dem is a notorious partisan far left activist with a checkered history of dishonesty.
All the quotes are anonymous so they are as Laura Logan, CBS Chief Foreign Affairs correspondent says of that, "horse shit".
There is nothing in the report that is sourced to a real person. Just allegations that Dems keep throwing..Lawless Trump! White House in chaos! MAGA people beat up Smolletts! MAGA people burn down churchs! Which has all been proven to be horse shit.
Dems believe it like cult members believe people like Jim Jones, Dems will swallow anything attacking Trump. The Jussie Smollett con job proved that. Attack happened during a winter polar vortex when outside temps were well below 0 degrees F? Come on man! Yet Dems sucked it up, like Kool Aid at Jim Jones Guiana compound.
Lapides,
Where are the "seven" sources? Perhaps you should look up the word " may" or at least read since you held the "English Stool" at a major university as you are so fond of telling us.
sir or madam:
I will come to the defense of Lapides
He said there were sources for the article cited (NBC)
if you check, you will see Guardian, AP,ABC, Politico,NY Times, CNN, and Wash Post
Lapides never mentioned he was a college teacher. His stalker did.
He never stated he taught at a major university. His stalker (you girly boy) said that

Lapides,
Those are not sources, they are purported news organizations. I never said you were a teacher. It is you that said many times you were head of the English Department. Lapides you really need to quit the sock puppet business, you aren't good at it. Remember the internet never forgets what you have said even though you do.
Anon aka Smith aka anon again:
you googled me and cited info you would only have known from the long oral interview I had given at Rutgers...you track me. You are a stalker.
So fuck off and say something about content instead of girly boy nonsense.
Those are news sites, whether you accept them or not but they are respectable ones and I simply cited them to show that it was NOT one place that posted that story...now, a favor: go take care of your kotex and bug off
Lapides,
They are still not sources. I only repeat what YOU say. I wouldn't waste my time googling the likes of you. Try remembering what you've said, also try sharpening up your insults, the one or two you use are as stale as your logic. Also try keeping at least one of your promises.

Childish is the inability to spell. Perhaps you need a new dictionary, the one you use (where you get your law definitions, remember treason?) seems the one you use leaves a little to be desired.
Lapides,
Please look up alleged in your famous dictionary.
PS. Have you followed McCabe's statements?
