All of a sudden Flynn is rumored to be deep state, Sidney is rumored to be a loose woman and Lin is rumored to be a dishonest lawyer.
This is no coincidence. This has all the earmarks of an operation by Strzok et al. No wonder Strzok was gloating over the divisions in the alliance. It's what they do.
Finding ways to divide and conquer is their main skill.
This whole Kyle, Lin, Sidney, Bryne, Flynn thing is loaded with bs designed to distract at a crucial time.
Pat Byrne told Lin that she was incompetent, didn't want to keep books the proper way for her foundation, and came on to Pat drunk and got pissed when he wouldn't go to bed with her. She was infiltrated by this Howard guy who used to be Hillary's lawyer. He was writing all the briefs and was going around taking pictures of people's desks. Pat says he and Flynn left her organization after 11 days because she was such a pain in the ass to work with.
