The Michael Flynn Problem: All Over a Joint US/Russia Mideast $100 Billion Nuke Plant Deal

It would be a great relationship building project for the US and Russia. It would be the installed doomsday bomb in Saudi Arabia. All Iran needs to do is to target one of the 16 nuclear plants...the results would be massively disruptive to the Saudis and the rest of the world. The world and this region is just too unstable for these nuclear plants. But if we clean out the Mideast swamp? Who knows?
 
Where is our $100 billion 16 nuclear plant infrastructure project is the USA? 

Was all this Russia thing about aligning Russia more closely to the USA against the China juggernaut?  Can one even imagine a world with the USA and Russia teammates?  

House Democrats demand info on Michael Flynn’s alleged Saudi Arabia visit over Russia nuclear plant deal

WASHINGTON — House Democrats are demanding that Michael Flynn disclose more information about an alleged trip to Saudi Arabia to promote a possible joint U.S.-Russian project there that he failed to disclose when he renewed his security clearance.

President Trump’s former national security adviser, already in legal trouble, reportedly made a trip to the Middle East in the middle of the 2016 campaign, when he was a senior Trump adviser.

According to Newsweek, he was there to try to negotiate a joint project with Americans and Russians to build nuclear power plants in the Middle East. That trip was not disclosed when he renewed his top security clearance ahead of becoming Trump’s top national security official, with access to almost all of the U.S.’s top secrets.

The top Democrats on the House Oversight and House Foreign Affairs committees are now demanding he share any documents he has from those trips.

“In contrast to this report, we have no record of Gen. Flynn reporting this trip or any contacts with foreign officials on his security clearance renewal application or in his interview with security clearance investigators,” wrote Reps. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) and Eliot Engel (D-Bronx).

Shortly after the trip, Saudi Arabia and Russia announced a $100 billion agreement to build 16 nuclear power plants in the country.
