Michael Flynn Dragged for Claiming Trump Could 'Rerun' the Election Using 'Military Capabilities'

In the first year of his presidency, outgoing President Donald Trump fired his national security advisor, General Michael Flynn, for lying to investigators and the Vice President about his interactions with Russian government officials.

Flynn pled guilty for these lies as part of a deal with Special Counsel Robert Mueller, but his trial was upended earlier this year when the Justice Department attempted to get their own case against him dismissed.


Last month, Trump pardoned Flynn and now the General is fomenting the President's lies that widespread voter fraud coordinated by Democrats tipped the election to President-elect Joe Biden.

In a shocking move for a United States General, Flynn has urged Trump to suspend the Constitution and enact martial law in order to secure another four years in the White House despite losing the 2020 election.

Flynn repeated these claims in a recent video, saying Trump to deploy the military to force a new election.

Watch below.

In an appearance on the right-wing media outlet Newsmax, Flynn said:

"He could order, within the swing states if he wanted to, he could take military capabilities and basically rerun an election each in those states. It's not unprecedented, I mean these people out there talk about martial law like it's something that we've never done. Martial law has been instituted 64 times, Greg. ... We have a constitutional process ... that has to be followed."

Flynn assured that he "wasn't calling for that" but emphasized the "Constitutional process" without acknowledging that the election is a Constitutional process as well—one which was followed and the results of which have only been reinforced after mountains of litigation, political pressure, and lies from the Trump administration and campaign.

People were disgusted at Flynn's suggestion.







They were horrified that a general calling for the overthrow of a democracy he vowed to protect got to the highest levels of government.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
