🔥WHOA🔥

Paul Erickson, the “boyfriend” of accused #Russian🇷🇺spy Maria Butina, recommended KT McFarland (Flynn’s “brain”) to serve as Deputy NSA.🤨

In Dec’16, MacFarland wrote that #Russia🇷🇺had “just thrown the USA election to him (@realDonaldTrump)”‼️

cc @ScottMStedman
Just *one day* after Obama imposed #sanctions on #Russia🇷🇺for hacking Democratic groups & state voting systems, McFarland ADMITTED IN WRITING that #Russia had THROWN THE ELECTION TO TRUMP‼️

#Treason
#TrumpRussia

*Mere hours* after Obama imposed #sanctions, McFarland wrote that Misha Flynn would be speaking to then #Russian🇷🇺ambassador Kislyak.🙄

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.
