Remembering Mike Flynn

March 12, 2026March 11, 2026

TYRANNY

America is still blue — as only 23% of the world is.  (You go, Mongolia!)

Let’s keep it that way.

INSANITY

Wars start over perceived slights.  Look at someone wrong in certain circles and you could get killed.  Mock someone at a Gridiron dinner or call them “deplorables” at a fundraiser and you could wind up with the unthinkable situation we find ourselves in today.  Kill someone’s evil father and shoot off his legs (or whatever we did) and he might not be amenable to your idea of a “quick excursion.”

Did Trump not know about the strait of Hormuz?  Or that the millions of unhappy but defenseless Iranians are no match for 200,000 heavily armed killers?

I don’t see how this ends well, or soon, for anybody except the Russians and Chinese.  Putin wins again.



RUSSIA

MAGA believes the Russia stuff is a hoax because Trump tells them that it is.

Trump believes Russia didn’t interfere with the 2016 election because Putin told him so.

As a patriotic American, he claims to have more faith in Putin than in the CIA and FBI. (Not that he doesn’t know the truth, of course.)

Witkoff believes Russia isn’t helping Iran fight us because Putin told him so.

When there’s too much evidence — the 400-page Mueller report, for example — it can simply be dismissed.  Who would ever read anything so long?

Shorter — though no more likely to be read by MAGAns — was Jim Stewartson’s post yesterday.

There you had Mike Flynn sitting next to Putin in Moscow — as haven’t we all? — and later being appointed National Security Advisor in the first Trump administration — and later being pardoned by Trump after pleading guilty of lying to the FBI — and out of all this came a defamation lawsuit against Stewartson that MAGA eagerly backed with millions of dollars.

Stewartson has won, but you know the old curse: “May you be party to a lawsuit in which you are in the right.”

It’s an interesting story.



ARE WE NOW THE ENEMY OF THE WORLD ORDER?

The first lesson of war is ‘know your enemy’ – and Britain’s enemy now is Donald Trump, argues Simon Tisdall.
