   Anyone have a reflection on what happened to this General who was persecuted for being associated with Trump.
   What should happen going forward?
   Where is the accountability?
   
   The Obama administration has a black eye and a stain on his legacy.
   Along with the IRS scandal, and the Benghazi affair, and the Iran nuclear deal, this was another example of how President Obama has politicized our government and its various agencies.

   Ok.  So apparently you have no recollection that after Trump won the election that Flynn called Russia to inform them not to worry about the sanctions that had put into place for election meddling because as soon as Trump takes office, Trump will remove them....which he did?

      Sounds like he spoke the truth to Russia.  Would you rather he had lied?

      FLYNN: And please make sure that its uh - the idea is, be - if you~ if you have to do something,
      do something on a reciprocal basis, meaning you know, on a sort of an even basis. Then that,
      then that is a good message and we'll understand that message. And, and then, we know that
      we're not going to escalate this thing, where we~ where because if we put out- ifwe send out 30
      guys and you send out 60, you know, or you shut down every Embassy, r mean we have to get
      this to a - lefs, let's keep this at a level that uh is, is even-keeled, okay? ls even-keeled. And
      then what we can do is, when we come in, we can then have a better conversation about where,
      where we're gonna go, uh~ regarding uh, regarding our relationship. And also, basically we have
      to take these, these enemies on that we have. And we definitely have a common enemy. You
      have a problem with it, we have a problem with it in this country, and we definitely have a
      problem with it in the Middle East."

      Another example of how folks can read the same words and come away with different versions of what those words said.
      
      I didn't read those documented transcript words to say what you said they did. Also, what Obama sanctions did Trump remove?

      Could you point out in the transcript where Flynn said that? I do realize CNN and MSNBC have reported just those very words. However, he never said that. It's these kinds of misleading statements that have you apparently dislike the president. you may want to do further research on the transcript or just do what media hopes you will do spread mistruths. And no Trump never removed any sanctions on Russia actually there is no other president that has put more sanctions on Russia.
      
      That's a fact. please read link to obtain knowledge on Trump's sanctions and other actions on Russia.
