Schleifmittel is an abrasive compound for fine grinding, as for lens grinding. That’s how Gen Flynn was described. Just once in a bit of a thread from the “trips” board in early ‘16, ostensibly by someone familiar with his management style. He was then gently chided for his archaic term. “Nobody uses Schleifmittel anymore”.
McCabe had a feud with Flynn over a former staffer transferred to FBI. The guys kinda rode her, and she toughed it out for a while, but mentioned it to AD McCabe outside official channels. Nobody wants to be the weenie that goes to HR iykwim. The abuse intensified. She asked Gen Flynn to speak with the AD, and the response was F Flynn. They gleefully railroaded him. I doubt that’s been overlooked by the Gen. You don’t get to Flynn’s level without making some deeply loyal and highly placed friends. Pain is coming. Have no doubt. Slowly grinding down, polishing out imperfections.
Schleifmittel. Anyone else remember that?
