He’s going to be a corrupt scumbag until 1/20
Flynn dishonored his uniform.
This is just a corrupt president rewarding his fellow corrupt lowlifes.
Why don’t you try and rip those 3 stars off his uniform,
Posted at 6:00 pm on Nov 25, 2020
That should be a pay per view.
He should rip them off himself. He’s already pissed all over them.
Or maybe you think it’s ok to work as a lobbyist for another country - Turkey - when you are NSA.
Because that’s what he did.
I'm sure the Committee for Public Safety will come for him and his family.

Then try him for treason or STFU. You have rage issues. Get help.

Agree that you personally should STFU.

I was referring to the dems trying him for treason.
I realize you personally are powerless.
Which makes your rage all the more laughable.
You are livid about something you can’t control.
Flynn undermined the United States to Russia’s benefit.
That is a fact. Flynn lied about his communications with Russia re lifting US sanctions during the 2016 transition and upon assuming his post as NSA as a compromised actor.
Flynn was prosecuted. He cooperated by snitching on Trump, to earn a sweet plea deal.
Flynn admitted his wrongdoing under oath, twice pleading guilty in open court.
When Flynn learned the trial court judge was going to sentence him to prison, he tried ever since to squirm out of his plea, with the help of Trump’s corrupt Attorney General.
Feel free to sing praise to your bedside temple of Michael Flynn, but don’t for a second pretend Flynn was a victim of a politicized unjust prosecution.
Get real.
Then why did Sullivan apologize?

The childish “midget” insult speaks volumes about your condescending attitude.
Correct. Flynn’s prosecution was righteous.
But for Sally Yates and top shelf journalism, Trump would have kept Flynn as National Security Advisor.
Anyone who thinks Flynn was a victim needs to pull their head out of their ass.
Ahh, the arbiter of righteousness.

This is harsh and totally disregards the facts of the case.
This was pure and simple unethical prosecutorial abuse. The man was entrapped and then extorted.
Yeah, they made him lie. Good one.

He's a decorated military veteran, so it begs the question:
When did he become a "corrupt scumbag"?
When he committed a felony?

Honestly, I don't care on Flynn either way.
I have no doubt he lied to the FBI, which is a felony...and not a BS felony especially given the fact he was specifically warned ahead of the interview to not lie. That said, I doubt he's a danger to society at this point so locking him up is probably a waste of taxpayer dollars, but a commutation would have accomplished that. The only reason Trump elected for a full pardon is b/c Flynn was loyal to him to the end.
Trump pardoning him just draws more attention to the fact that Trump hired so many people that ended up being criminals. Pardoning those criminals totally undermines all the "law and order" BS he and his supporters spout. It's Trump just doing more damage to his (and thus the Republican) brand. So i say he should pardon Manafort next for the same reasons...it would serve to remind everyone (again) how corrupt Trump is on his way out.
Flynn was likely only a target because he joined the Trump admin.
Worth noting that James Clapper likely did infinitely more harm to the freedom of the American people and was never even investigated.
Exactly.

"Flynn" has nothing to do with which party you favor...for whatever reason, he chose "poorly"...
putting our country in jeopardy. Every last member of our military - including my nephew, who is about to be deployed - trains against Russia. Of all the possible candidates for National Security Advisor, why on earth would Trump pick Flynn? (see Link)
Link: https://themoscowproject.org/collusion/flynn-fired-dia/
Right, it couldn't possibly be because he was suspected of working as an agent for Turkey
while supposedly working for the US. Under Obama he was considered suspect and was not given a classified clearance.
Sally Yates warned the incoming admin of the findings but it took 18 days to release Flynn from his post as National Security Advisor.
Link: https://thehill.com/policy/defense/421780-turkey-and-michael-flynn-five-things-to-know
He was targeted b/c of his known close associations to Russia and Turkey
Despite those ties, Trump selected him. The FBI then tested his loyalty and he failed the test.
He is a perfect example of the Peter Principle
He was promoted to the level of his incompetence.
Being a decorated vet does not preclude being a corrupt scumbag. He’s both.
He lied to the FBI and to the Vice President and to the country. We still don’t know what he talked to the Russian ambassador about - multiple times in one day.
Does the Peter Principle apply to Poly Sci professors at 2nd rate universities built on slave money?

Why do you say that? Legitimate question if you ask me. He's an expert on everything correct?
(no message)
He's a polysci prof - this is largely a political conversation here - Something tells me, he's
got more than a leg to stand on when offering an opinion in politics/gov't local and foreign. To dismiss his voice they way you always do
shows not much brain power on your side of the fence. Trying to demean him by calling him Crissy only means, you've got nothin' and that's
pretty much standard for you and most of the other dingbats who keep challenging his background and opinion. Funny thing is - the whole
group of you are like 1 for 5,000 vs 94 on this board when it comes to your political opinions and BS knowledge you have acquired from
the National Enquirer, Breitbart and FOX TV.
Why not give it a rest, Mr. Angry Man.
I'm sure he's a wonderful poly sci professor. he's the worlds foremost expert in geopolitics
And the reason I call him Chrissy is his pompous attitude he's been spewing for the last 4 years. Anybody who doesn't agree with him or offers a different opinion is a rube or cultist.
Shouldn't an esteemed poly sci expert be able to come up with a better response? Then again maybe he hit the Peter Principle if that's his best. For someone like you to actually look up to and defend him speaks volumes about you. Also funny you had to throw in the usual Fox or Breitbart reference. Typical but sad. i wonder where you get your information from?
Now run along you're boring me.
You're upset with him being pompous so you show him up to prove you can be more so?
That's your reasoning? I have to say, I didn't see that coming.
And no, you're a rube/cultist for promoting trumpism. That's a fact! You support a blithering moron who is a conman, lying thief pretend despot bent on the destruction of democracy in the US
and you wonder why you're being called out?
Seems pompous to me.
Well lets see. Trump actually accomplished things in office. If you want me to list them I will.
Since you hate Trump so much please list Biden's best accomplishment in 47 years? Also explain how Trump is destroying democracy? What has he done? If securing our borders, energy independence, trying to lower drug prices, slowing down H1B1 abuse to help unemployed Americans is the destruction of democracy then we should have more destruction.
Yes I want America 1st. And I really could give a rats ass what other countries that have been leeching of US taxpayers for decades think. Now once again I want an answer on how democracy is being destroyed.
Has Trump suppressed free speech? That's right liberal came up with the Fairness Doctrine. Has Trump done anything to suppress free speech on college campuses? Oh that's right liberal protest conservative speakers.
What name should we give people like you who voted for a man with early dementia, who also set up his cracked head kid with influence peddling no show jobs and received a kickback (10% for the big guy)
Come on Mr. Wizard what should we call you?
Um, Trump didn't accomplish any of that. It's trump or R baloney you've been soaking up
as fact, repeating it to each other until it became cemented in your language of hate for D's and Biden.
I'm not a big Biden fan, and he wasn't my choice for the D nominee - but he is a decent man, a man of principle, smart man, well spoken.
In comparison to whom it is you support, he's the Apex of man and a better POTUS choice by far just on his character.
I haven't liked everything he's done or said, but in the least I'm not afraid for this country with him in a leadership role. Just look at who
he chooses for his cabinet and compare with Dumpy Trumpy's group.
Biden as a Senator - what did he accomplish?
Link: I hope this answers some of your questions.
Sure whatever you say. Go back to fantasy land. I guess Obama probably accomplished all of that.
As far as Joe is concerned looks to me like his biggest accomplishment was being a shill for credit card companies. Did your lame ass link say that?
You didn't answer how Trump is destroying democracy. Oh that's right. Just a lib talking point with no proof.
Yes he's a decent man alright. Remember "you ain't black......" Do decent men take kickbacks from their crackhead sons? You didn't address that either.
Maybe you lack knowledge of these things because you get your news from Facebook or MSNBC.
Answer how trump destroyed democracy. You stated it now answer.

Such anger from a party whose guy may be in the WH in January,
I wonder if the mood will change if Biden gets in. I’m gonna say no. I think you guys are just pissed off at life in general.
I wonder what the mood will be if anyone decides to get to the bottom of the HUnter mess;
No one will ever convince me all that money flowing to the Biden family is "on the level"
Of course not. By the way, what money?
(no message)
$3.5 million from Russia for starters. Does that count?
"Hunter Biden received a $3.5 million wire transfer from Elena Baturina, the richest woman in Russia and the widow of Yury Luzhkov, the former mayor of Moscow, Senate Republicans revealed in their report on the younger Biden’s work in Ukraine."
Well we know that H. Biden didn't receive that money and there is no
actual evidence to the contrary.
When the report was published it did not show any wrong doing by H.Biden and did not connect him to the said 3.5 million.
When the republicans were asked for evidence of the this million dollar transaction they couldn't or wouldn't respond to it leaving it open
to them to show the proof. Asked for evidence of any wrong doing, the republicans could provide nothing.
So, you're offering another invented story which by the way, doesn't show how Joe Biden could possibly be involved in Hunter's business
dealings.
Again, you've got nothing but allegations which are false.
So far, you and your fellow knuckleheads are 0-fer-
Was Burisma invented too?

83K per month from Burisma, while his father is "point man" to the Ukraine
Nothing wrong with that though and that is not even denied ..Hunter on TV interview admitted he'd probably not have job except for his father Admitted corruption, and no one investigates AT a miminum, thast a conflict of interest, at its worst, downright corrupt..
Let's ask, why was Rex Tillerson selected to be SS? Bad choice, don't ya think? I assume H. Biden
falls under that tent too.

That shit is going to be buried, quickly. Hunter will be hitting the glass dick
in the Lincoln bedroom. But then again, Moderate Joe brings out the best in people. Thats what I was told yesterday anyway.
This kind of stuff begs for a full investigation of his time in office and private life, not only
from the spite point of view, but the perspective, if your desire is to be POTUS, don't spitefully flaunt your power at the nation when in office.

Obviously, if I was Trump! I know he's leaving so, I'm pretty much a happy camper.
Though I do look forward to his life ending incarceration soon after 1/20/21.
Or, his self banishment to Moscow where he'll tell all the secrets to his pal Putin, who by the way will have him stuffed and mounted on his wall.
Do you really believe what you write? Please spell out all the charges that will put him away for
life? Maybe you and Adam Schiff have some Russian info. Still waiting for that from Schiff.
Seems like we go through this outrage every time there is a president leaving office.
I'm sure if you dig, you can find me getting outraged at an Obama pardon. I know I was about some of Clinton's. Now, I just couldn't care less. It is a power of the president. It is what it is. But, it is also the other side's right to make as much political hay out of it as they can.

Faux outrage.
You guys (party-before-country-Dems) are insane. You target individuals to find crimes, instead of targeting crimes and arresting individuals. Then, you get outraged when someone dares pardon one of the victims of your criminal behavior.
Faux this, Ned. There is a reason Stone solicited his pardon.

Question for the 2 drama queens in this thread - how does Flynn being pardoned have an affect on

Just so we're clear, this is a man and an admin that promoted the slogan, Lock her up to help gain
the Whitehouse.

(no message)
Flynn should have been found as treasonous as he did use his position
as an intelligence officer in the gov't then National Security Advisor to the Whitehouse - though his guilt was that of lying of which he was convicted (a felony), Marc Rich was for finance violations and his pardon
forced a federal investigation into Clinton's actions.
Flynn is a traitor to the United States.
I'm sure you don't see the difference.
And no, I don't think Clinton should have pardoned Rich.
Treason pretty strong words there. Decades of service but now he's a traitor. Gotcha
Does the FBI set-up on him bother you at all?
Or don't you see the difference? Probably not. It's past your level comprehension.
