What is Michael Flynn doing in the Oval Office Talking About Declaring Martial Law

The American People should start becoming acquainted with the term sedition.

It is a word that means "conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or monarch."

Michael Flynn, the former three-star general and National Security Advisor for Donald Trump who was recently pardoned by his patron for lying to the F.B.I. is guilty of sedition.

For days he has been advocating the views of a fringe organization called Veterans for Trump that have voiced support for Donald Trump to declaring martial law, suspending the Constitution, and overturning the results of the 2020 Presidential Election.

Instead of being shunned from the White House as an embarrassment and persona non grata, General Flynn and his attorney, Sidney Powell (the same lawyer who was once on Trump's legal team conveying the craziest theories of voter fraud that no court would entertain,) found themselves with Rudy Giuliani on the phone, according to reporting from the New York Times, in the Oval Office apparently discussing ideas with Mr. Trump to:

  • Appoint Ms. Powell as a Special Counsel to investigate voter fraud.
  • Declare martial law as Flynn has been suggesting for a couple of weeks.
  • Confiscate voting machines, through Executive Order, to prove voter fraud.

White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and Counsel Pat Cipollone, according to the New York Times, "repeatedly and aggressively pushed back on the ideas being proposed..."

Apparently, Ms. Powell called the White House advisers "quitters."

While it is comforting that Meadows and Cipollone did the right thing in condemning what Powell, Flynn, and Giuliani were proposing, it is also telling that a crackpot attorney and disgraced former General and National Security Advisor were able to get through the White House entrance and make it into the Oval Office.

It would be like Ronald Reagan inviting Oliver North to discuss helping Anti Communist Forces in South America after Iran Contra or Richard Nixon inviting the Watergate Plumbers for a photo op after the break-in.

Michael Flynn is a person of low character, little to no mental stability, and a traitor.

He should be charged with sedition after January 20, 2021, for his advocating Martial Law so his patron could not pardon him again.
