Revisiting one of Flynn's greatest hits

Revisiting one of Flynn's greatest hits

by digby

Trump's closest foreign policy and national security adviser Michael Flynn tweeted this last summer, obviously very upset that anyone would suggest the Russians had hacked the DNC.  He later deleted it, calling it a mistake:




We've all made mistakes so one might excuse it by saying he just didn't read this one carefully. But he added the statement at the top so it wasn't just a slip of the retweet key. And then there is his ongoing affiliation with the white nationalist "alt-right," which does have some issues specifically with jews.

In any case,  a man who would retweet such a thing, from an account that twitter has now banned, by the way, and add his own paranoid rant on top of it, is unfit to be so close to power in the White House. (Why was he following this Nazi on twitter in the first place?) He's much more suited to a nice sinecure at some right wing think tank somewhere. Can't Heritage make some room for him?
