    No, he resigned because, apparently, everyone in the world is overreacting to nothing. /YF

    This is why partisan politics is stupid.

    "Shit is fine as long as it's our side dropping a deuce!"

    We'll have to see the transcripts of the conversation.

    Sanctions may not have been what Flynn was looking to discuss. If the Russian ambassador brought them up, and Flynn briefly encouraged him to not overreact, before getting back to the main topic, this could really be a nothing burger.

    If someone leaks six things to you and you can prove one, you write that and keep sawing on the others.

    Yeah, such a nothing burger with no lettuce or tomato -- or cheese! -- that he resigned.

    ya know how leaking works, don't ya? why would you play your trump card (hah, trump card, I kill myself) when something smaller will do?

    The furious jacking off over the Logan Act is amusing, approaching in inanity that demonstrated by the Order of the Emoluments Clause.

    Flynn lied to Pence -- for reasons which surpass understanding -- leaving Trump in a near-impossible situation ... but compromised NSAs are easier to replace than emasculated VPs.

    Russia is the geopolitical foe. The idea that our president is planning on doing something with them that he's not willing to tell the American people is something I find very, very alarming.

    If you drag secret business out into the chow hall and let every overstuffed hedge fund manager on the East Coast light it up with their smart phone, then absolutely.

    This fucking moron. Maybe CNN needs to air old Private Snafu films on the morning show so he'll learn something.

    Considering how stubborn and unwilling to budge Trump has been, it would seem quite odd that Flynn would resign over a "nothing burger."

    Kellyanne on the Today Show was rough. She appears beat down physically and emotionally.
