Is Flynn In?
Okay, so the story is everywhere that General Mike Flynn has turned on Trump and is singing his heart to the FBI.
In related news, Flynn’s wife has taken out a $20 gazillion term life insurance policy on him with double indemnity for falling out of fourth floor windows, getting shot in front of the Kremlin, or a sudden accidental poison dart attack.
So the guy was right!
Yesterday morning, on AM Joy, a man she often has on [don’t recall the name, sorry] a guy who was in some intel agency and now is a common commentator on the talk shows, said that Flynn would be the first to turn. Then Raw Story said, “Well, yeah,” at 8:00 last night.
Good call, guy on AM Joy yesterday. Keep em coming!
1Methinks I hear the small scratchings of rats leaving the sinking ship. But, alas, the stupid rats forgot their little life preservers. So they’ll drown anyway.
2two crows, Malcolm Nance perhaps? Here’s the twitter universe overall response: https://twitter.com/MalcolmNance/status/845751101429297152
“Beware the Ides of March” has passed, but the spring rainy season could become a hot mess between innocent umbrellas and a hot stick. Another commonality between Donnie and Vlad is that Donnie doesn’t apologize, while Vlad doesn’t accept apologies. With the repeal & replace debacle in the House, Donnie went from being a “closer” to being a big loser. Vlad cannot be happy.
An over heated Vlad cannot be healthy, when he goes from stealthy to full frontal. His efforts with the French elections are out in the open, as France awakens to Marine Le Pen and her nefarious agenda which might have slipped under their radar, until Donnie gave up the game.
Exposed and out in the open, don’t expect Vlad to slink back to the Kremlin to regroup.
3There isn’t enough popcorn in the world for this. ⏳
4The interesting person to watch is Mr. Pence. In order to keep his position as the president should Mr. Trump vacate the position, Mr. Pence cannot afford to be too closely intertwined with the Russian connections. His name doesn’t seem to be linked to the Russians as yet.
5Not to worry, Pence’s day in the sun is coming. So Flynn is singing like, dare I say a tweedy bird. Hay Hun, order more ice, popcorn, and JD. This is going to be a long hot summer.
6Putin’s 8 victims all had ties to Drumpf or Drumpf cabinet members. Just a mere coincidence.
Just to hedge our bets, we should all take out policies on Flynn.
Pence looks like the quintessential Bond era KGB agent.

7Mel, correct you are. Mike Pence. My preferred scenario would be Pence inserting himself in the cat fight between Donnie and Lyin’ Ryan, thus being annihilated in the crossfire. Mike is not in a pretty position. If he fails to take the proverbial bullet for Donnie, Donnie will stab him in the back.
Watch for it. Social media and comedy can do this. Samantha Bee did a stellar job of of exposing John Kasich. Pence is worse than Kasich. Go Samantha, go do it! Not to be ignored, SNL needs to harpoon Pence. Plant a “seed” in Donnie’s head that Pence must go.
Messaging. Remember Pence and Hilz’ e-mail server? The ads write themselves. While hypocrite Mikey was all mouthy on Hilz, he himself was hiding his own e-mail activity as governor.
“J’accuse …!” When the snacilbupeR are accusing, it’s beyond revealing as to what they themselves are doing. As painful as it might be to listen to those wretches, listen we must to stay out ahead of them and their dirty tricks.
Momentum is on our side. However, we also need to be on guard that the DNC doesn’t snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.
😀 All hail the millennial! ;D j/k sort of. Baby Boomers have the numbers, but they’re split almost 50:50 with the reactionary snacilbupeR losing ground. The numbers below age 55 lean heavily progressive. The 55-64 segment could be the the real deciders, after Donnie and Lyin’ Ryan attacked them where they live or die.
8Now if we can only trust the FBI.
9Over the years I’ve read a modest number of books about the rise of Hitler and his eventual destruction. I’ve always been amazed that in an otherwise very cultured and civilized nation such as Germany was, “The Night Of The Long Knifes/Knives” could take place. Now, I’m getting a refresher course on how it could happen. We will just have to wait and see if President Trump actually steps in and participates personally in the blood-letting.
10I doubt Vladimir cares at all about DJT; if he gets anything out of him beyond what he has gotten, it’s all gravy. Vladimir is even happy if everything is known, he just doesn’t want any proof found.
And turmoil here in the U.S. is just fine; it would be enough to ensure that the federal branch is not in position with a will to suppress or thwart his Russian ambitions.
11Mel & Jane & PKM: if i’m not mistaken, Trump did not know who Pence was until Manafort started pushing him for VP. If/when Manafort falls, somebody needs to look into why Manafort was so hot for Pence.
12LynnN, ain’t that the truth. Trust the FBI. Years after the legendary J Edgar, the FBI had at least gained a modicum of respectability, if not trust. Comey seems to have planted a load of quicksand and fertilizer under that progress.
Ah, but as the snacilbupeR love to say on the business end of things, competition is a wonderful thing. 17 competing agencies and counting, the load to the taxpayers continues to compound, not decrease. Yet another example of a failed snacilbupeR fiscal policy. What was it the snacilbupeR say about small government, while inserting their proboscis into every bathroom, bedroom, and doctor’s office?
Fun factoid – one of those 17 competing agencies or some PAC is circulating the rumor that George HW Bush paid for the Donnie golden shower dossier. They cannot even come up with a credible lie. Sadly 43 is incapable of adjusting the shawl over his knees.
13Ah yes, PKM, 43 is old and frail, but I haven’t heard anything about him having dementia. And don’t forget, he has a wife…and JEB (insert Granny Clampett’s voice here) had lotsa monies in his campaign war chest, as I recall. Nothing is certain except that we are plagued with a cabal of scoundrels, and there is no honor among thieves! Should be interesting, but whatever we find out will only be the top of the iceberg!
14Aggieland Liz, I love you for so many reasons, but astute is at the top of the list. While it’s doubtful that 43 could swat a fly off his nose, we would be remiss not to consider that those around him are not above using him, including his own scam damn family.
Among the recent coinkydoinks is Dubya emerging with his bathtub of finger pointing and painting shame.
To be watched. Pols that in any normal circumstances should STFU. Odd contrast is that Darth Dickey Cheney and his limited daughter Liz have been relatively silent.
Let’s hope that they are as discombobulated as they appear to be.
15MeMyself, thank you! As the forces of Gish gallop and gaslighting attempt to bury us with shiny objects, it will be teamwork that keeps us afloat.
Pence. Good observations and instinct, MeMyself. Excellent question to throw out here to the media and our elected representatives. On the face of it, we could accept that Pence was a bone tossed out to the religious wrong. Rumor at the time had it that Kasich was Donnie’s choice, but even he as a snacilbupeR had a few standards and declined.
What is known about Pence and readily available: his record as gov of Indiana, his religious wing nut ties. More recently, Mikey’s little e-mail scandal of his own.
Why Vlad would select Mikey is a deeper question of which there are a few clues. Vlad likes Donnie. Vlad is now openly supporting Marine Le Pen in France. Vlad went to the Vatican. Vlad is (surprise to me) supportive of Russian Orthodoxy.
Maybe a look at Mikey’s tax returns?
16Um, if Donnie and Mikey go down in flames, isn’t Lyin Ryan on deck for the Oval Office?? Seems like the choice is between the rock and the hard place any way you look at it.
17Aggieland Liz, in the circular firing squad of snacilbupeR crossfire, Donnie and Mikey are dead, while Lyin’ Ryan is mortally wounded. Even the hardcore haters in the GOP are visibly unimpressed with the seven year and 17 day failure to repeal & replace Obamacare that Paulie boy floated. They’re not totally as dumb as they look, just slow to realize the Obamacare they hate is one and the same thing as the ACA they love. Think those voters were cranky last November? We ain’t seen nothing yet. But their Easter break town hall meetings should prove entertaining. The small government keep your hands off my Medicare voters are about to go full mental jacket.
