They’ll still be calling it a conspiracy theory when people are serving prison time over it.

The BS is flying all over from the MSM. Easily predictable. Not until they see “the bodies hanging from the trees” will their tune change, if ever...

Flynn better get not only “made whole” but made “whole plus owning a protectorate island with a mansion and a stunningly-hot women’s volleyball team.”
