'They discussed this!' Mike Flynn seems to think ex-FBI head Jim Comey wanted to 'kill me'

Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn claims ex-FBI Director James Comey probably wanted to have him whacked.

"I knew that we had to fight through this, and it was not easy," Flynn told far-right webcaster Benny Johnson in an interview on Wednesday. "But we were able to stand our ground, we figured out a way out of it, my case was dismissed by the Department of Justice. And, you know, what they should have done was they should have killed me there, Jim, and I know that they considered it. And so, by not doing that, they picked the wrong family to mess with, and I'll tell you, we are so tied into the government, particularly the government right now."

Later in the segment, Flynn doubled down that Comey and FBI officials wanted to kill him, saying, "These people, they talk about these things ... they discussed this. Because it's like, what do we want to do? We can destroy this guy, and then all of a sudden I start to fight back."

Flynn, who previously headed up the Defense Intelligence Agency under the Obama administration before becoming an ally of Trump, originally was forced out of the security role and pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia. He then recanted the plea and spent years fighting the charges in court until the Trump administration intervened to dismiss them in 2020. Trump gave him a pardon on his way out the door from his first term.

Since then, Flynn has fallen in with adherents of the extremist QAnon movement, a Nazism-adjacent conspiracy cult that believes America is controlled by a cabal of cannibalistic child-trafficking Satanists.

In the run-up to the election, Flynn proclaimed that the "gates of Hell" would be unleashed on Trump's enemies.
