Don the Con started his long con in the media around November 1, 1976 before most here were born. He was still Swedish then. He's no better at the truth now. And I think his fingers are still just as sticky.

if it's OK for a boy to say he is a girl, I don't see a problem with someone claiming whatever ethnicity he chooses.

So which side's political agenda was ANTIFA formed to advocate? Are they fighting for low taxes and school choice? It's a liberal advocacy group, Paul.

Ha, glad you know what fake news is. I will stick with what retired GENERAL Michael Flynn said... as well as soldiers involved in the effort to find him. Not to
Mention officers who told cnn that we suffered 8 additional casualties at combat outpost Keating due to resources dedicated to finding your hero.

So to defend your case you’re citing a man convicted of multiple felonies who just got absolutely torched by a federal judge today in court even going to far as to question his patriotism and if he was a traitor.
You don’t need to respond, it all makes sense now.

That same federal judge then said in open court, as did the prosecutors, that Flynn didn't commit treason, and the same judge said explicitly, that he wasn't implying Flynn did.
But since you feel that judges saying something automatically has credibility, how about the judge striking down Obamacare? That must be just as credible, right? Or else you're a partisan hypocrite?

Only because I’m part Swedish and it’s just more of his con, or should I say alternative facts

Flynn has pleaded guilty to very serious federal crimes. The judge who rules on the ACA has been ridiculed by both sides of the aisle. Once again you seek parity where there is none.

Jeff,if you read beyond that you would realize there are many others who substantiate this claim. I doubt any of us will ever know the real truth.

So you can't accept the Truth ...
Soldiers die in combat for all kinds of reasons that's just the risk in combat we take when ever we go on patrol... I find it odd armchair generals now put a good death bad death scale into play..
FYI
One-Third Of US Casualties In Afghanistan And Iraq Were Non-Combat Accidents
An analysis of Department of Defense Trauma Registry data published in the medical journal JAMA Surgery found that 34.1% of total casualties and 11.5% percent of all deaths from January 2003 to December 2014 occurred in non-combat conditions.
also
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said in a congressional hearing, “I have seen no evidence that directly links any American combat death to the rescue or finding or search of Sergeant Bergdahl.”

Hey, If she wants to say she's a girl, more power to her.
though she should have realized that pesky "X" chromosone would have come out during that DNA test anyways.

Like I said, varying accounts and we can both believe what we choose. Regardless, bad deal.

Liberal lawyer Alan Dershowitz has along piece today, spelling out how egregious it was for the judge you love, to accuse Flynn of treason.
So you say judges are credible, unless they are criticized by others, in which case their rulings are meaningless. Do you apply that logic consistently, or only when it serves your personal narrative?
