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.
Yeah honestly at this point in time I don't think Flynn or any of them were ever close to the real white hats. And that's a best case scenario. At worst they could definitely be DS. It wouldn't surprise me if Byrne was considering the friendships he held such as Warren Buffett.
