Fake news. The money was sincerely earned.

How much went to the Clintons for the children taken
from Haiti who were then raped, and had their organs
removed before being put in sealed drums???

Did the MSM even cover it?

I didn’t want to get rid of the Clintons so we could have folks ostensibly on our side pulling the same scams. Two wrongs, as mother used to say, don’t make a right.

I agree. And it’s a given. Liberals don’t expose liberal crimes. I don’t want to emulate their types of bad and illegal behavior. I believe we’re better than them.

And Clinton dodged the draft. He was never in the military. Adultery would have put him out. Likewise, this didn't hang over his head:

"The Defense Department has said retired military officers are covered by the emoluments clause because they could be recalled to military service. The department has also noted that the prohibition on accepting foreign gifts includes commercial groups controlled by foreign governments or others "considered instruments of the foreign government."

General Flynn is gone from President Trump’s administration.

Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland should take his concerns to the proper agency.

Yeah, the last time I remember libs complaining about speaking fees was when former president Reagan gave a speech in Japan for big bucks.

How dare the President do this.

He is asked for some papers on Flynn, and instead of using lawyers to fight this tooth and nail, he just hands over the papers, no problem.

How are lawyers supposed to earn a living if the government is ACTUALLY transparent????

The flaky ness is not Trump’s. It’s Flynn.

Exactly. We knew the swamp is a polluted place. Now we're learning that many folks only had to dip one toe into the quagmire to be sucked in.

I'm having another thought. The military is all convoluted and interconnected with corporate entities. Is this because so much of what should be done by the military is now contracted out to the private sector?

Yet, as every driver knows; three rights (1stAM, 2ndAM, 4thAM) make a left, ne c’est pas?

You are aware that a.) Flynn wasn't on the ballot and b.) Flynn is no longer in the adminstration.

Trying to equate Trump to the Clintons is absurd.

Flynn was a lifelong Democrat. I don’t care if he had some epiphany. For that reason alone the guy was damaged goods.

Plus he was on Turkey’s payroll. Good riddance to bad rubbish. The guy is a douchebag.

Peanuts compared to what the Clinton Foundation received for our uranium.

I think that its because once retired they often make authoritative advocates for corporations. It would be a good thing if they were putting the needs of DoD ahead of their new employer. However, they don’t always do that. In Flynn’s case, he seemed to be cashing in on his former connections with DIA and with foreign countries, Russia and Turkey. At least he wasn’t taking any Iranian money.
