Politics BREAKING: National security adviser Michael Flynn has resigned.

[MarAzul]

I don't care how it was leaked

To me, that is the main issue here. I don't really give a rat what's up between Trump and Flynn. It's the inner workings of the government that are broken for what ever reason.

Maybe it wouldn't be leaked if Trump was respected. Trump's made his own bed on that one and then some. He's also disrespected the intelligence community multiple times. I'm not justifying the leak, but Trump shares some significant blame for creating a culture where people would be actively trying to undermine him. Also, if there is a lot of smoke showing that Russia basically controls Trump, some might describe the leaks as the work of true patriots. It all depends on your perspective.

Why not? And if you don't care about that, why do you care if someone tells the public about it?

Trump and Flynn are the government (well, not Flynn anymore).

Have you ever heard the expression "the buck stops here"?

And that would be Sedition, pure and simple. Looks like house cleaning to be done ASAP.
When does the new Directors come on board? Soon after many rat's asses to be severed I expect.

And to someone who doesn't see politics in red or blue...
The main issue is all of it.
No one should get away with breaking the law.
Yet red's and blue's alike have shown they're blind as a bat as long as it favors the party they support..

And if the law breaker here get his deserved reward, we all will be better off for it.

Never gonna happen, Pence will just pardon Trump like Ford did for Nixon.

I think he meant that if Trump profits hugely from the presidency, some of that wealth will trickle down to us little people.

You can forget about it! It never trickles down that far.

Were the original tea party participants patriots or traitors? What about George Washington? Depends on your perspective.

Traitors. Duh!

[MarAzul]

What about George Washington?

Are you kidding? That was all out, lay it all on the line rebellion. You have to win or your fucked type of commitment required.

they were alt patriots

Sly is being a little less than Sly. Of course your leaks are entirely different than somebody else's. That doesn't even require Sly.

Whoever applied the orange make-up in 2016 did a better job. Another vote for privatization of government.

Well, he was pissed when they told him Nixon had more Time covers than him, so this should make him happy.

Reportedly Flynn will not face charges for lying to the FBI even though lying to law enforcement is a felony. This was the MAN who said if he did 10% of what Hillary Clinton had done, he'd be in jail. He's done not 10% but about 10 times. But IOKIYAR (it's OK if you're a Republican).

Good news, congress is going to open a new investigation on Hillary's email server.
