Midknight Review -- new and revised: General Flynn fipps on Trump or did he?

One might be inclined to believe that "they finally got him . . . . Trump that is, on obstruction charges" except for two very important things:

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical
