Now it's becoming completely obvious why Putin decided not to take action when his diplomats were

expelled. When Michael Flynn called the Russian Ambassador he assured him that the expulsions would be reversed and there was no need for Russia to retaliate. Flynn should be in handcuffs. He subverted the actions of a sitting President. The stinky stew is getting deep.

My opinion, but I think I'm more right than wrong.

1. I think you're 100% right.

Our government is in the hands of the Russians. We need to expel these traitors, and fast.

2. Yeap, at this point MiniPoots nominees should be looking at what Putin wants as far as their policy

... and just go from there.

3. Duh....Putin won't need spies...

He owns Trump. Who needs to waste resources on spies when you own our government from the top?

4. Why retaliate when he has a puppet in charge of the most powerful country in the world?

5. Petty payback. Rump got giddy when he talked to Putin after the expulsions.

"He's so smart." This whole scenario, calling the dips home, getting rid of head of national guard,during inaug killing aca. He and Putin are in collusion about the payback. Putin should not be allowed on our soil. Get your pitchforks ready. Shit is coming down.. he's a very sick man. Needs to be tried for treason.

6. This makes me so sick

A thump supporter my husband knows voted for him because another friend of his told him if Hillary was elected we'd go to war with Russia. Now it appears we are going to be taken over by Russia in a bloodless coup.

I can't wait until I talk to him again and call him comrade. His wife though did vote for Hillary.

7. The seige begins fully in days.

We are not safe.

8. You are right.

This stinks to high heaven. It's time for Flynn to be dropped from the general officers communication system or network. He no longer deserves the title or any other polite response you would give to an honored gentleman. Slur comes to mind.

His actions here make me think his relief of command action, while on active duty, demonstrate his flawed thinking here, too.

He, as a private citizen changed foreign affairs as set in place by the CinC. He had no authority. Talk about undermining the chain of command. Would the Navy call this a Mutiny.
