During the 2016 presidential campaign, numerous high-level officials within the U.S. Government hated Donald Trump. They were shocked and horrified when Trump won the election over their favored candidate, Hillary Clinton. A "Resistance" movement against Trump arose involving many high-level government officials -- including departing President Obama and his team. The Resistance members feared President-Elect Trump's designee as National Security Advisor, Lt. General Michael Flynn. Flynn had worked in intelligence for 33 years. He was a decorated combat veteran. More important to The Resistance, Flynn was a sophisticated user of intelligence. He knew where classified information was kept, knew how to access it, and knew how to interpret it. Flynn inevitably would uncover "Operation Crossfire Hurricane," the rogue FBI investigation of Donald Trump, his campaign, his advisors, his Transition Team, and later even his presidency. And Flynn would uncover The Resistance. He had to be stopped, even if those who would become The Resistance had been unable to thwart Trump's presidential bid. "Crosshairs of Evil" tells the true story of how the FBI, the Justice Department, the U.S. Intelligence Community, and later Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his band of marauders, investigated and prosecuted General Flynn, eventually coercing Flynn into resigning. Still later, The Resistance forced Flynn into pleading guilty to a crime he believed he did not commit -- lying to FBI agents in a "perjury trap" ambush interview. This book reveals how a biased federal judge, Emmet Sullivan, became obsessed with sending Flynn to prison for something, anything. And it tells the story of how Flynn's new defense counsel, Sidney Powell and her team, fought to undo the injustices inflicted on Michael Flynn, and save him from the clutches of Judge Sullivan. It also explains how a presidential pardon by President Trump ultimately put an end to Michael Flynn's tragic legal odyssey. This sordid affair must never be allowed to happen again.
