For @brianstelter

Guess why @realDonaldTrump is talking about @GenFlynn?

I'll give you a hint:
For the first time in American history, we will see a former president and his former vice president charged with conspiracy.

18 U.S. Code § 371.Conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud United States
If two or more persons conspire either to commit any offense against the United States, or to defraud the United States, or any agency thereof in any manner or for any purpose, and one or more of such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy...
"each shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

If, however, the offense, the commission of which is the object of the conspiracy, is a misdemeanor only..."
"...the punishment for such conspiracy shall not exceed the maximum punishment provided for such misdemeanor."

And conspiracy is almost certainly just one charge.

It won't be treason, but it's going to be something doable.

AND.

My prediction is that they'll plead guilty.

You guys didn't even know the scope of Durham's CRIMINAL investigation.
And the law scholar Barack Obama just said that Flyn had been "convicted of perjury."

So much stupidity in three words.

Flynn wasn't convicted of anything.

He PLEADED GUILTY.
And Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI.

That's not perjury.

Neither Professor Obama nor anybody in the press know what perjury is, apparently.
Perjury is when you knowingly give FALSE TESTIMONY during a LEGAL PROCEEDING after SWEARING AN OATH to tell the truth.

How can you guys hope to win in November when you're all drooling cretins?

I'm amazed.

HAPPY but amazed.
You have no idea what happened, what is happening, and what will happen.

I did an experiment that I copied from a British scientist.

I sat on the paving stones in my garden and trained the lizards to run up on my knee to get treats.
After winter, when they came out of hibernation, I sat in the garden, and the lizards mobbed me.

THEY REMEMBERED.

Lizards are smarter than you and Obama.

For you, every day is a brand-new experience.
At some point, EVEN THE IMPERIAL JAPANESE SURRENDERED.

Trump is sailing through the worst crisis in our history.

So haul OBAMA out of his Swiss chalet-Dracula castle for help?

And he's disoriented, just like Biden.
Just give up, already.

The bewildered sorrow is Tucker Carlson's nauseating shtick.
When you and @donlemon do it, you just come across as villainesses in a Russ Meyer film.
Nobody picked up on what Trump said on May 8, 2020, during his roundtable with House Republicans.

He said that some Democrats like Pelosi and Schumer can't be changed. Their hate has made them permanent impediments.

What's the logical conclusion?
No more second chances.

Trump has warned you people over and over that he caught everybody in the act.

You've convinced yourselves that he just stumbled into his job by sheer luck, and now we're going to "return to normalcy."

Why, no. We're not.

TRUMP IS NORMALCY.
The Democrats don't even have a nominee yet, so of course Trump isn't showing his cards.

Wait until the Dems have settled on their fall guy and gal.

Nobody in the press watches combat videos from the Middle East, so you have no idea what our allies have developed.
Sustained fire was always a problem, because when you shoot too many bullets, the barrel of your weapon gets so hot that your aim is impacted and the weapon can actually be damaged.

The Saudis solved that issue.
I don't even know what those weapons are.

Watch the impact of a round on the earth.
IT WAS SO HOT THAT IT CREATED LAVA.

And you can't see it happen at normal speed.

That's what Trump is going to do after the Dems pick their doomed nominees.

Prepare for the lava, kids.

END.
