| Michael Flynn is already ratting out Jared Kushner and others | |||
Just five days after Michael Flynn revealed that he’s negotiating a plea deal with Special Counsel Robert Mueller, he’s already ratting out his former White House colleagues and notably, the entire thing is playing out in public. The controversy centers around Flynn’s attempt at building nuclear power plants in the Middle East, which turns out to have involved some high profile Trump White House players as well. Michael Flynn was forced to resign as Donald Trump’s National Security Adviser in February, after the media exposed that Flynn had been secretly communicating with the Russian Ambassador about sanctions during the transition period. Since that time, it’s come to light that Flynn had also been attempting to negotiate a nuclear plant deal in the Middle East, as part of his unregistered work as a foreign agent. Now the Wall Street Journal (link) is suddenly reporting that Flynn continued to work on the plan after he was ousted, and he involved the likes of Jared Kushner and Thomas Barrack in that scheme. What stands out here is the timing of this leak. This information could only have come from Michael Flynn. Either he’s leaking this to the media in order to prove to Robert Mueller that he has the goods to take down key Trump-Russia players and thus deserves a lenient deal, or Flynn has already privately given this info to Mueller, and Mueller is leaking it to try to scare the other players into cutting deals of their own. In any case, the timing cannot be ignored. Just days after Michael Flynn decided to cut a deal which would require him to turn over incriminating information on bigger fish in Donald Trump’s White House, suddenly that trail of information is beginning to leak out to major news outlets. One way or the other, Flynn is already ratting out other Trump-Russia players. Look for more of these types of Flynn-originated leaks in the coming days.

| After Democrats snub him, Donald Trump holds berserk press conference with two empty chairs | |||
Earlier this morning, Donald Trump posted a rude, lying and racist tweet about his upcoming meeting with Democratic Party leaders Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. This prompted the Democrats to call off the meeting entirely. Trump never did respond on Twitter, suggesting he was caught off guard. But by the afternoon, Trump delivered his response in the most demented fashion he could think of: he held a press conference with two empty chairs. No, really. Trump held a White House press conference which looked like this:  The two empty chairs had name tags for Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. Republican leaders Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell sat in chairs outside of the camera view. We’d tell you what Donald Trump said during this berserk press conference, but not one word of it was intelligible. At certain points it appeared, in all seriousness, that Trump may have forgotten those two seats were empty, and seemed to believe Chuck and Nancy were actually there with him. At best it was a failed attempt at recreating Clint Eastwood’s infamously failed “empty chair” faux-interview with President Obama. At worst, we may be watching Trump in the midst of a hallucinatory psychotic break. This all came after Donald Trump started the day by tweeting this piece of absurd nonsense: “Meeting with ‘Chuck and Nancy’ today about keeping government open and working. Problem is they want illegal immigrants flooding into our Country unchecked, are weak on Crime and want to substantially RAISE Taxes. I dont see a deal!” There wasn’t a single true or accurate word in his tweet.
