Keith O’ is on the money as usual. Flynn must be taken out as quickly and dramatically as possible. Unless DOJ is waiting on further developments to make its case against this piece of garbage even more air tight and, possibly, deserving of more severe penalties, there seems no point in delaying.

I wonder how Harry Truman would have handled Flynn’s treason? No, actually, I don’t wonder. His first call would have been to Justice. His second to Defense. He would have asked both to take action immediately unless there were compelling reasons to delay. And he, not they, would have decided if those reasons were actually compelling enough to forestall indictments against Flynn or not. Truman fired a 5 Star General for insubordination. Would/will Biden move on Flynn as quickly and forcefully?

Biden is doing his part, has accomplished a great deal out-of-the-gate, but there is so much more to be done.

That's just one more reason that the former guy deserves what's coming to him.
