America’s So-Called National Security Adviser

By THE EDITORIAL BOARDFEB. 10, 2017

From the start, Michael Flynn, a retired army lieutenant general, was a disturbing choice as President Trump’s national security adviser. He is a hothead with extremist views in a critical job that is supposed to build consensus through thoughtful, prudent decision-making. The choice is now growing more unnerving every day.

A conspiracy theorist who has stoked dangerous fears about Islam, Mr. Flynn was fired by the Obama administration as head of the Defense Intelligence Agency and led anti-Hillary Clinton chants of “lock her up” at the 2016 Republican Convention. He raised eyebrows by cultivating a mystifyingly cozy relationship with Russia, which the Pentagon considers a major threat.

NY Times, reporting information obtained in turn from WaPo, from disgruntled outgoing administration's employees.

Watch the evening news, for coverage by Clinton News Network.

(But omit reference to Hillary and her "reset" with Russia. Was it successful, or not successful?

Did we finish the Obama/Hillary era with better relations and results regarding Russia, or worse?

Results matter, not propaganda from biased sources.

Hillary got people killed in Libya, telling false stories.
