And oh oh yeah! Flynn is now under investigation by the FBI over the hacking scandal and it may be more encompassing over the Trump dossier with the Russians...

A polygraph test is an archaic instrument that not one of you failed musicians would ever play. Didn't you ever watch Perry Mason, numbnuts? Even a fictional character knew they were shit and to this day they're not even admissible in a court of law.

Ha! Just in from the NBC "fake" news:
"The White House (i.e., Grumpy Trumpy) kept Vice President Pence in the dark for weeks about the warning it had gotten about national security adviser Flynn from the Justice Department, Pence's press secretary, Marc Lotter, said Tuesday. Pence did not find out until Feb. 9. Trump was first informed about the Justice Department's concerns regarding Flynn on Jan. 26, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said at Tuesday's daily press briefing."
Once again, here's the linky dinky for you fucking retards:

Loyalty doesn't mean much with Trump. He's not going to think twice about getting rid of anybody, including Bannon, if the perception of them tanks to the point where it reflects poorly on [Trump]. This wouldn't be unique among presidents, either. Trump rewarded those who helped him get to the dance, but Trump doesn't owe his election to Preibus, Bannon, or Conway...certainly not Spicer.
At some point Preibus and Spicer will leave. Sooner rather than later, I can't say. Those two positions have a high rate of turnover by their nature.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Despite, according to some, Flynn's poor professional reputation he garnered while working at the DIA, I find it hard to believe he was so stupid to lie about a conversation he had with the Russian Ambassador weeks prior to Trump being sworn in. I mean, Flynn initially denied the conversation even took place, then lied about what he did and didn't talk about.
The timing of the conversation was curious, as is Flynn's wishy-washy claim that he can't be certain as to if the Obama sanctions were discussed. This isn't some conversation he had at DIA several years ago, mind you, where it might be credible for him to claim he couldn't remember the particulars. In addition, if it was the case that Flynn lied to Pence about all of this, Flynn had to go.
I find it hard to believe Flynn spoke with the Russian Ambassador without any prompting from someone above him, but beyond the basic skeleton of what I mentioned above, I don't know anything beyond the bare bones of the story.
We'll have to wait for this all to unfold, I suppose.
Not a great start for this administration, from what I've seen so far. I take no relish in any of this. In terms of general competence, I would have expected more from Flynn, who at least had some experience in government prior to hooking up with Trump. Really ham-handed, and this compounded on top of all the other flubs doesn't paint a picture of a group of people who know what they're doing.
It's still early in the administration, and doubtless there is a learning curve. If fuckups like this keep piling on, more Republican congressman will start to turn away from the Trump Administration. One hopes Trump will be able to get the situation in hand, and not restrict the dismissals to Flynn if that is what is necessary to right the ship and have things roll out better: thus far, the people surrounding him aren't serving him particularly well from what I can see. Too much overreach and too much hubris far too early. Then again, maybe the staff are just reflective of their boss: it seems like everybody's foot is on the accelerator and nobody knows where the brakes are. Maybe that's the intent. Whatever the case, the optics look terrible. It would behoove them to get their legislative goals passed quickly, because more ineptitude is going to make that harder and harder to do. Is this behavior characteristic of how Trump ran his businesses?Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Oh the whole Flynn thing is being blown out of proportion because some on the left want to spin it into supporting their Hillary lost to Trump because Putin rigged the election narrative. They are out to try and paint a picture of Trump and Putin being buddy buddy. The media is going to paint all sorts of pictures and people are going to believe what they believe. I think the country is pretty much divided now. Nobody is going to persuade anyone either way. Who knows why Flynn really resigned. Who cares. He was an employee. He's dispensable. I wish more people in Washington would resign. Many of them are incompetent or do nothing. The courts are politicized and legislate from the bench. Most the presidents are corrupt buffoons. The congress is a joke that never checks a bad president. The glory of it is there has been no money put aside for the government pensions. Some people won't be getting one and that will either be a sad or glorious day. Oh and the way we are going we will default on our debt. That will be fun too. So people can have their fun with this Flynn episode. More fun to come...No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

I think he's sucking more than toes these days. I've never seen him look that flamingly gay before.
err... not that there's anything wrong with that. There are a lot of things wrong with Dick Morris, but that's not even in the top 50.Eat Us And Smile
