Michael Flynn Resigns As Trump's National Security Adviser (go.com)
An anonymous reader quotes a report from ABC News: President Donald Trump's embattled national security adviser Michael Flynn, who faced questions about a call to the Russian ambassador prior to the inauguration, has resigned. Retired Army General Keith Kellogg was named acting national security adviser to replace Flynn. ABC News reported Monday that Flynn called Vice President Mike Pence on Friday to apologize for misleading him about his conversation with the ambassador in November. Flynn previously denied that he spoke about sanctions the U.S. imposed on Russia for its suspected interference in the 2016 election, a claim repeated by Pence in January. An administration official later claimed Pence was relying on information provided to him by Flynn. In his resignation later, Flynn cited the "fast pace of events" for "inadvertently" briefing "the Vice President Elect and others with incomplete information regarding [his] phone calls with the Russian Ambassador." You can view Flynn's full resignation letter, as provided by the White House, here.
If Obama and Hillary Clinton had not decided to threaten Russia again to distract from their corruption and incompetence, Flynn wouldn't have had to placate them.
Riiight. The guy hasn't even been in office 90 days and the left has done absolutely NOTHING but wet themselves, have riots, and act like screaming babies. And I remind you that the same bunch doing these "polls" were the exact same pollsters that said "Oh everybody loves HRC, best candidate of the year every year" and were swearing to the last she was gonna win....until more than 75% of the country went bright red.
The only ones giving a shit about this are the media, the same media whose viewership is dropping like a stone because everyone has figured out that they are nothing but fake news and are less trustworthy than a used car salesman trying to sell you an 02 Taurus. Meanwhile the so called "alternative news" get more views from a single video than the likes of CNN (and a hell of a lot more than MSNBC) and the people in all those flyover states, ya know, the ones you actually need to win elections? Yeah they have done tuned out the MSM because Trump has actually been doing what he said he would do during the campaign, something more than you can say for the last four or five presidents.
So please, keep believing the MSM narrative, its gonna make the absolute ROFLStomp of the left in 2018 and Trump's landslide all the more hilarious, because in case you haven't heard rather than learn that the identity politics and oppression olympics bullshit is about as appealing as ass cancer the DNC are doubling down on the racist shit, so much so that if you were to replace the word white with Jew or Black? It would probably qualify for hate speech in many countries. Because that is what is gonna get those millions in the flyover states to vote for ya, tell them they need to STFU and bow down before those these racist fucks deem to be their betters, yeah that is soooo gonna work.
And all of us who pointed out the DNC was rigging the primary (which wikileaks later proved) only to be called "ists" will laugh and laugh, because the corp stooges in the media shat all over their bed when they helped the DNC fuck Bernie out of the primary (which actual real polls showed beating both HRC and DJT by a huge margin) and rather than admit running just another corporate pet and trying to say "But its different this time, she has a vag!" didn't work and the DNC should actually listen to the voters? Will rub that shit all over their faces and claim its chocolate and wonder why nobody listens to their constant "But Trump is actually Hitler!" bleating.
ACs don't waste your time replying, your posts are never seen by me.
Well, to be honest, Georgia did fuck with the Russian minorities; while one might argue against a full-scale invasion, some intervention was definitely in order.
And Ukraine? Ukraine has oil. Taking this by US standards, it's justification enough.

Are you seriously comparing town halls to riots?
Seriously?
And, sorry, Obamacare actually *is* something to oppose. It's amazing how many of my friends lost their insurance and are now paying double or triple for less coverage. And this was all fully predictable to anyone paying attention.
I'm like a lot of folks - not a Trump fan, didn't vote for the guy, but the reaction of the looney left has made me so glad he won.
Do you have ESP?
You didn't vote for Trump because he was more qualified. He wasn't.
Trump's more qualified than some hack of a community organizer. Why do qualifications suddenly matter? Right, he's not on Team Blue.
You didn't vote for Trump because he had better policies: He didn't.
Not getting into a shooting war with Russia and not sucking Chinese cock are both excellent policies. As is a reckoning of NATO, where only the US and - oddly enough, broke ass Eastern European countries - are paying their way.
You didn't vote for Trump because he was a more stable candidate: He wasn't.
Point granted. I agree Trump was not any more stable than a woman hysterically screaming about Ivan and the glass ceiling.
You didn't vote for Trump because he wasn't dangerous: He is.
Yeah, no. It takes a special sort of retard to believe Trump is more dangerous than a woman who wanted us in a shooting war with Russia. Who openly stated her intent to meddle in Russia's political process. Gee, and you fucks wonder why there's fucking blowback from Russia.
You didn't vote for Trump because you want good government: He was always the worst candidate.
Like the old joke about the only thing worse than Democracy...
Right. Trump was the worst candidate, except for all the others.
No, fake news really exists, although it the term has been coopted to mean "stuff I don't agree with."
That's not correct - it's a looney left talking point. The two items that I referenced are *factually* incorrect. The MLK bust was never removed from the White House, this isn't someone's "opinion", it's a fact. Likewise, Trump became President on January 21, 2017. So if someone was detained at the airport in December of 2016, it had nothing to do with now President Trump. It had to do with President Obama. Again, not an "opinion", not "stuff I don't agree with", instead it is "fact".
Both items were passed off as "news" by seemingly legitimate news organizations. Both items are fake news - literally fake. There are plenty of other examples, but, newsflash: Media Matters isn't going to tell you about it.
Do you have ESP?
