Flynn Holds NRF Leader’s Book In Meeting With FBI Director

Michael Flynn, former National Security Adviser to Donald Trump, shared a photo on X of his meeting with FBI Director Kash Patel, in which he is seen holding the book by Ahmad Massoud.

The book In the Name of My Father: Struggling for Freedom in Afghanistan, written by the leader of the National Resistance Front (NRF), discusses the Afghan people’s fight for freedom. It focuses on the NRF’s resistance against the Taliban and other extremist groups. Massoud presents his views on democracy, human rights, and the necessity of opposing authoritarian and terrorist forces.

Flynn, a retired U.S. Army officer, briefly served as Trump’s National Security Adviser in 2017. He resigned after 22 days following revelations about his contacts with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak and for providing misleading information to then-Vice President Mike Pence.

His name later surfaced in Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 US elections. However, in November 2020, Trump granted him a presidential pardon.

Despite his resignation, Flynn remains active in U.S. politics and media. He continues to be a prominent figure among Trump supporters and frequently comments on national security and foreign policy issues.
