He had better learn to communicate by code talking or else the Obama intelligence agents will be listening and leaking.

A couple of months from now, we will all look back on this as a really good thing. Kind of like during the election campaign when Paul replaced Cory, and then Kellyanne replaced Paul.

Harwood, the Anti-Flynn.

Flynn is 100% Neocon and Intel community boy. If he or Petraeus gets it, that pretty much tells me Trump didn’t intend to actually change Americas foreign policy direction.

Being a seal means you can swim and operate a weapon. It tells us nothing else about a persons politics. Hell, one seal went tranny.

So yeah, you can beat it.

Before appointing the next candidate, Trump must have the FBI find the leaks that surrounded the Michael Flynn affair. Nothing is more urgent right now. But what will we do with him/her when caught? A slap on the wrist or a simple firing will not suffice.

Won’t matter. The GOPe wanted Flynn out because he was a Trumpist first and foremost. Rinse & Pence appear to be working for them and not Trump, IMO. Whoever Trump now picks for the NSC spot will not have the influence Flynn did as an earlier support of Trump. And that is exactly what the neocons who took down Flynn wanted.

Worse it means the CIA has Trump by the balls and they effectively own the government. If Trump dumps the Muslim ban then we’ll know they’ve effectively in charge and letting endless waves of 3ed worlders is not far behind.

Nonsense. Are you drinking tonight? Will you say the same when the GOPe come for Bannon? Because that is where we are headed if Trump does not bring the out of control GOPe to heel ASAP.
