Showing Original Post only (View all)Michael Flynn to Q-Anon group: "I want to know why what happened in Myanmar can't happen here?" [View all]
Link to tweet
Here is video of former general and National Security Advisor Mike Flynn calling for a Myanmar-like coup to replace the sitting U.S. president with Donald Trump. The talk of war is very real.
Dallas Sunday
To be clear he is calling for the army to overthrow the Presidency of the Republic and shoot anyone down who resists the coup.
Myanmar recently be like:
Over 800 protesters dead and 4500 detained for having the temerity to protest the illegal overthrow of the duly elected president.
A retired general of the USA Army is calling for that... There must be some legal recourse for this shit?! Can someone be court marshalled once they have retired? For bringing the army into disrepute maybe?

Following their actions of the last 5 years, we don't even know what is American, anymore.

Because presidential pardons are, for the most part, pretty much untouchable.

Biden should recall Flynn to active service, then the military could take appropriate action.

He has a brother "Charles". An important and apparently mute and invisible guy on January 6th.
