(77 posts)4. Oh that is why I know this guy's name!
He's on Twitter saying Flynn was a witness for a case against a FBI director and that Comey destroyed computer drives for something Obama did. I'll be honest, I can't keep up with fact checking these dudes.
I read several articles about him but the name didn't stick because people like him creep me out. Thanks!
