“They all had a very open hatred for Micheal Flynn to the point one of the attendees fantasized about Flynn being hung for treason for going on RT.”

What did Flynn do at RT?

The Kremlin's Candidate - POLITICO Magazine - May/June 2016

The Russia narrative, early form.

... Michael Flynn, now a private citizen after a reportedly disgruntled retirement, was not there to gather intelligence. His attendance at the RT gala, before which he also gave a talk on world affairs, appeared to inaugurate a relationship with the network--presumably a paid one, though neither Flynn nor RT answered queries on the subject. Flynn now makes semi-regular appearances on RT as an analyst, in which he often argues that the U.S. and Russia should be working more closely together on issues like fighting ISIL and ending Syria's civil war. "Russia has its own national security strategy, and we have to respect that," he said in one recent appearance. "And we have to try to figure out: How do we combine the United States' national security strategy along with Russia's national security strategy, despite all the challenges that we face?"

At a moment of semi-hostility between the U.S. and Russia, the presence of such an important figure at Putin's table startled current and former members of the Obama administration. "It was extremely odd that he showed up in a tuxedo to the Russian government propaganda arm's party," one former Pentagon official told me.

He went on RT a few times. I’m not aware of anything else.
