Wake the **** up! This doesn't happen! THE most critical position in regards to our national security....and he is in bed with Russia? Anyone still believing this conman's bs is just crazy in the head.
He either did a horrible job vetting his NSA, or he is in the same position

Why was Flynn playing to Russia during the transition? What motivation would he or anyone on team Trump have in working that relationship prior to taking the oath?
Tell me if any of this makes sense.
Reporters question to Trump today: What did Flynn discuss with Russia?
Trump: He was just doing his job. If he didn't discuss sanctions with Russia, I would have instructed him to discuss sanctions with Russia.
Reporters question to Trump today: Why was he fired?
Trump: Because he misled VP Pence.
But yet that happened several weeks ago. Between January 23 and January 26th, the DoJ notifies the
White House counsel, Donald F. McGahn II, that Mr. Flynn had not been truthful about his interactions with Mr. Kislyak and that he could be at risk for being blackmailed by Russian intelligence. Mr. McGahn then briefs Mr. Trump.
On February 9th, Mr. Flynn tells The Washington Post that “while he had no recollection of discussing sanctions, he couldn’t be certain that the topic never came up.”
On February 13th, Kellyanne Conway, a counselor to the president, says that Mr. Flynn misled Mr. Pence about the phone call, but that Mr. Flynn still “enjoys the full confidence of the president.” Mr. Spicer says the
president is “evaluating the situation.”
On February 13th, Flynn resigned.
I like you but you've lost perspective. He was doing his job and it's no different than any transition team. How many more news headlines and formal statements from the IC have to be released stating no wrongdoing before you realize you've been clickbaited?
"This is my last election ... After my election I have more flexibility," Obama said.
"I will transmit this information to Vladimir," said Medvedev, Putin's protégé and long considered number two in Moscow's power structure.
Maybe he thought the Russian Dude's *** was "cute" boom and he was just trying to arrange an accidental rear ender without any Christian Fundamentalist homophobes catching wind of it and making a stink about it on self righteous CNN?
A Man's gotta have another Man's *** whenever he gets that "itch" don't you know?
During the transition? While the President-elect has yet to be sworn in? Exactly what I'm wondering, and the entire issue here
Of course during the transition. He has to have a relationship with his counterparts everywhere. Every NSA director has done the same.
boomer exactly what is it that Flynn did that was so terrible? Spell it out chapter and verse if any Law was broken, or any "secrets" were divulged to his Russian counterpart?
Trump said he didn't have enough trust in him...he doesn't have legitimate reasons for saying that?
Just what are you so suspicious of?
Trump asked him to. Why does it have to be anything more than what his Boss says? Trump didn't give us all of the details, but that was his reason.
Why does it have to be anything more than what Trump said?
I'm at disney with the fan, so I'm a little behind. But I think I've read Trumps reason....bs reason. There's got to be more to it than that, who is being willfully ignorant Dave?
Why does there have to be more to it than that? Because that is what you want to believe. If the FBI is not charging him than it would seem to be Trumps decision.
Oh...it's what I want to believe for sure...so I'm biased. But you're just appointed to NSA, why not wait two weeks until there is no issue? Or why doesn't big bad Trump just say exactly what you're saying and let him keep on keepin on? I think there will be more to this.
His job is to have a relationship when he takes over at NSA. Trump has said exactly why he let him go. Time to move on
You realize all transition teams make contact right? It was just reported that one of Clinton's aids was in contact with the Chinese the week of the election to start working out stuff.
This thread is the perfect example of how the media can start a narrative and control the narrative, while low information voters form a strong opinion based off of biased reporting. What I'm politely trying to say is that the media made a story out of a non-story and millions of people like boomboom took the bait.
None of you on the Left trying to make such a big deal out of this can say exactly what Flynn did that was either illegal, treasonous, or unconstitutional.
Trump says he (Flynn) wasn't upfront with the Veep about everything discussed with his Russian counterpart. They obviously know what he said and it didn't square with what he initially told the VP.
Yet, somehow that's not good enough for you Trump deniers.
Just has to be something else more sinister don't you know?
Tell us more about how they aren't taking shale gas out of the ground in Ohio.
Tell us more about calculus.
Tell us all about that A you got in Differential Equations.
Tell us about how the Senate will eliminate NAFTA.
Tell us more about design speed.
Tell us all about Donnie's 55% approval rating.
Tell us how the "EPA" came up with the Stream Protection Rule.
Tell us about how the Stream Protection Rule is the worst rule ever.
Everytime I see that word Dave it makes me think of something that's a grossly distorted view from a scene in the movie "Pinball Wizard" with Elton John....the horribly bizarre or flat out terrifying.
First I have to stop laughing.
