Michael Flynn Jr: You're all goin' down....

On Monday afternoon at 4 p.m., Michael Flynn Jr. tweeted this: "You're all going down. You know who you are. Mark my word...."

Which is, um, intriguing?

Flynn is the son of Michael Flynn, President Donald Trump's former national security adviser and now a cooperating witness in special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and possible collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign.

Intriguing, for sure. Pretty sure this isn't about Mueller or the Democrats. There would be no need to be cryptic about obvious enemies. You just can't make this stuff up.

If this is an indication of Flynn being ticked off at the inner circle, this could be good. Is it possible Flynn Sr. thinks he's been made a scapegoat? Michael "Lock her up" Flynn?

... but weirdly acts like his dad is a persecuted hero rather than a guilty-pleader. So it's hard to know. He's so belligerent all the time, but it's not clear who his "enemy" is.

If this were at another point of time, I might agree that the lack of specific names means something. However, given the timing of this hard far right pitching on the anti-Mueller conspiracies, I tend to think this is him jumping on that bandwagon.

4. Hmmm. That doesn't make sense to me. But it's possible. Who knows?

I hate it when people try to be mysterious.
