Rep. Swalwell tweet:

Flynn is a disgrace to the uniform he once wore, a puppet of our adversary, and a threat to our national security.

Michael Flynn tonight on Vladimir Putin: “The guy’s a very strong leader. He’s been in charge for a long time. And he’s not going to put up with the nonsense he’s seeing in Europe.”

"What nonsense in Europe?" The freedom of millions in Eastern Europe who were under the oppressive thumb of communist dictatorship since World War 2 ended?

We must deal harshly with this traitorous activity or it's going to get worse. These people are insane, and they have no soul.

Justice matters.

We should expect more from the military, they have to know this guy is a traitor, he has voiced it, he has committed acts of treason, is his brother so powerful that he can stop those who know and understand that he must be recalled to face court martial?

What is going on????? Damn it!

Everything about Flynn says "asset." His fear that Putin might expose him for treason has turned him into a complete and total traitor.

I don't think having Mikey as a brother leaves one able to possess a SCI clearance. They frown on hanging out with enemies of the State.

if the leaders of our country give in to his demands, as Rump was eager to do while in office. Putin found his weakest link and played him for all it was worth, and will do it again with the next chump who finds him as charming as Flynn seems to.

"Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall."

Typical. The party of Lincoln turned their backs on freed African American slaves in 1876 in order to make a deal to hang on to the presidency. The Republicans are embracing Communists and Fascists at the same time.

To active duty and court-martialed him. I mean, it seems to me that they should have plenty of reasons to - as well as evidence that he's violated numerous of articles of the UCMJ. This traitorous fuckstick is still subject to it as a retiree, and he needs to be made an example of, because you know there have to be others just like him, that just weren't as outspoken/visible as he was/is.
