as they feel the noose of public knowledge tightening. With each new leak of info, corroborative account, or media revelation, the stakes are raised internally for who will be sacrificed to the masses so that their organism of treason may continue to infect our democracy and institutions. Flynn (who seems horribly inept) seems to be the first Patsy, and it looks like Bannon is serving him up on a platter for us; likely hoping the ensuing media circus will continue to obfuscate the more integral gears that are working behind the scenes. They are buying time and making public sacrifices while their power is cemented and their plan comes to fruition. My guess would be that Flynn was set up to be this initial fall-guy from the outset by Bannon... After Trump, he's the most blatantly stupid of the bunch, so I can see how he could have been easily led to the slaughter by the dark arts of Bannon.
