Same here. I totally agree with you. All of them are truly fleecing us. It’s so disgusting and despicable to see this happen everyday while our so called leaders are not doing anything.😡
Agree 100%. He is a fucking nutjob to boot!There are a few Generals that go rogue. He is one outstanding example of the kind that was willing to play footsie with the Russians! Disgrace to the military!
I agree with you about Flynn, but not the uniform.
I found the Army to be the most corrupt and wasteful organization I had ever dealt with. That remains true today. Republicans always whine about government waste, fraud, and abuse, but I can't image any government department or agency even beginning to approach the levels of waste I saw in the military. That shouldn't come as a surprise, since the DoD's budget is basically a blank check. We attack Iran and waste an incredible amount of money that could have been better spent providing health care to Americans or using it to try to replace the support that was cut when Doge gutted USAID. But what does the military do? It asks for another $200 billion like they're asking for a dollar to put in a vending machine. Nothing to see here, just a bunch of good ol' boys wasting vast sums of money that could be used for truly beneficial things.
My job in the military was as a technician on a purely defensive missile system. I had no moral qualms about that because it could only be used in the event we were being attacked. But the waste was unbelievable. Perfectly good spare parts that I was ordered to "shitcan" because we had another spare and it was against regulations to have two spares at the same time. But, as I pointed out to the person who ordered me to throw it away, all I had to do was attach a tag to it with the words "Serviceable turn-in" and everything would be fine. The next time there was a run to the supply source the item could be turned in and nothing was wasted. That kind of issue happened over and over. A warrant officer turned up the pressure in one system until it blew up the part, which was like most parts in the system quite expensive. The warrant officer knew what the maximum pressure was, but he was curious to see how much pressure it could hold before failing. He did that because he knew that anything he destroyed would be replaced, no questions asked.
It makes my blood boil that people's SNAP benefits, which are crumbs to begin with, are being cut, healthcare costs are soaring, climate change is escalating fast and our taxpayer dollars are being spent on tax breaks for the rich, wars, and to compensate the likes of Flynn.
The karmic debt these fucks are amassing are going to land them in some really dire straits next time around. It is the only thing that keeps me sane...picturing them all coming back as mothers with 18 mouths to feed in a Mumbai slum. Is too late for us to sign on to The Hague? It sure would be nice to get a court to weigh in that contains no Republicans or Democrats, just legal scholars.
OK, that was just my latest comment from the fantasy world that I have to enter to try to come to grips with the impossible to believe stupidity and ignorance of Trump.
Unfortunately, by the time I became aware of Adam and his exceptional contributions, I had already signed up for my quota of paid Substacks. I am reconsidering my paid subscriptions and Adam will be the first I will add.
I'm assuming his life may have been made more difficult by airport delays. The hope is that the airports he's using are not suffering seriously from delays.
He's found an important niche for himself in the Substack world during the time of Trump. I'm sure that the job he does will continue to be valuable when and if we are able to get rid of Trump and the Republican majorities, but Trump and the thoroughly corrupt Bondi DoJ make his work more interesting, more important, and absolutely necessary. I find most of the reporting the MSM do regarding court cases and decisions to be generally weak and often more frustrating than helpful. Adam is following the phony above the fray approach of the New York Times. I've always been amazed that the Times could write an article about a SCOTUS case and not even both to tell readers which justices voted which way. To me, that has always been an important part of every SCOTUS decision, and, although it shouldn't matter, it really does now more than ever, who appointed a district court judge or appellate panel of three.
Long before Trump and the hyper-partisanship we have today, it still did matter which SCOTUS justice voted which way. For example, years ago when justices such as Brennan or Blackmun or John Paul Stevens were on the court, it was important to know how they voted especially if they voted in an unexpected way. When that happens, it is important to know why. What was their reasoning?
I agree, he is a traitor. I wish there were a way that the people of the United States could have someone represent us and sue for our taxes to be given back.
FUCK Micheal Flynn, he is a TRAITOR and an embarrassment to the uniform I once proudly wore!
Same here. I totally agree with you. All of them are truly fleecing us. It’s so disgusting and despicable to see this happen everyday while our so called leaders are not doing anything.😡
All our tax money for all legal issues of Trumps time in office (both terms)! It's not out of DJT's pockets 🤬!!!
Mike Flynn had a major role in the training of Proud Boys from Florida who went to January 6th.
Agree 100%. He is a fucking nutjob to boot!There are a few Generals that go rogue. He is one outstanding example of the kind that was willing to play footsie with the Russians! Disgrace to the military!

Yeah read the book the Fort Bragg cartel
Pardoned by the traitor-in-chief!
They are just right in our faces handing out taxpayer monies to his cronies because they pled out to crimes they committed!? WTF!?!??
It makes my blood boil that people's SNAP benefits, which are crumbs to begin with, are being cut, healthcare costs are soaring, climate change is escalating fast and our taxpayer dollars are being spent on tax breaks for the rich, wars, and to compensate the likes of Flynn.
wtf.
He should not get any pension $ from the military, either! Fuck FLynn!
He's a fucking traitor!
shit. Flynn is just the worst of the worst.

Thank you for explaining yet another corruption issue. No bounds with this regime. BUT, Adam still has great hair.
fucking god damn it to fucking hell
OFFS!!!! And didn't he get a bundle some years back already????
I'd like to help Adam out, but he's so damn lazy.

Adam is an incredible and enthusiastic legal journalist; he has been able to break down the legal jargon for laypersons like myself.

These lawless GOP pigs are literally working together to loot our government! FDT! FMF! FGOP!
I agree, he is a traitor. I wish there were a way that the people of the United States could have someone represent us and sue for our taxes to be given back.
Thanks Allison and Adam!
Cra-cra-crazy “legal” goings on.
Great discussion!
Disgusting.
Why don't we let Trump stand trial with Jack Smith's evidence and see if he (Trump) is convicted. When he is, we don't have to pay anything
