Mike Flynn Was Always a Fraud.
'The fall from grace of retired Lieutenant General Mike Flynn is one of the strangest sagas in the annals of Americas military and intelligence services. Just one year ago, his star could hardly have been more ascendant, named as the National Security Advisor to newly-elected President Donald Trump. However, he flamed out of that job in just 24 days, a record. Then, last week, he pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about discussions with top Russians, leaving his reputation is in tatters.
How all this happened will be debated for years as the full saga of the Trump White Houses secret ties to Moscow unfolds and Special Counsel Robert Muellers investigation moves forward like a steamroller, slowly crushing all in its wake. Flynn, the military intelligence professional turned felon, will feature prominently in that sordid story. Now that hes cooperating with Mueller against President Trump, copping per his plea deal to a relatively minor charge that he may serve no jail time for, Flynns role has changed, but its no less important.
Just how deeply enmeshed Flynn was with the Russians is now coming into focus. Public embarrassments like appearing at the 10th anniversary gala for RT, Moscows propaganda networkincluding sitting at the head table with Vladimir Putin, Russias presidentwere just the tip of the iceberg. That Flynn took Kremlin money for that controversial appearance should have hinted at worse misdeeds.'>>>
