During an interview on Real America’s Voice Thursday, former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn claimed that he received eight subpoenas the night before, complaining that there was a massive effort to keep Donald Trump out of office and himself out of government.
“Steve, a little breaking news here on your show, I received eight, count ‘em, eight subpoenas last night,” Flynn said in an interview with fellow Trump advisor Steve Bannon, claiming that the effort was part of a Marxist plot against Trump and himself.

But why would Flynn be facing subpoenas now, assuming he isn’t exaggerating or lying? His activities since 2021 include pledging an oath to the QAnon conspiracy theory, preaching about Christian nationalism in tours around the country, and, as he mentioned in the interview with Bannon, touting the new movie, Flynn, which portrays him as a victim of the so-called “Deep State.” Perhaps he’s been up to something as nefarious as what he accuses Trump’s critics of doing.
I could find no recent news on a subpoena for Flynn, but this article from 2021 could be revelatory.
"In the days before the January 6th attack, the former President's closest allies and advisors drove a campaign of misinformation about the election and planned ways to stop the count of Electoral College votes," the committee's chair, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said in a statement. "The Select Committee needs to know every detail about their efforts to overturn the election, including who they were talking to in the White House and in Congress, what connections they had with rallies that escalated into a riot, and who paid for it all."
