along with a criminal investigation that no one knew anything about.

Plus the countless hours he spent with Mueller's team. I can imagine he gave up a lot of names.

But one hopes that you are correct.

He may regret his conduct for a variety of reasons.

It would be a nice gesture if Flynn publicly and personally apologized to HRC for his conduct.

Fortunately it looks like it will remained confined to flurries. I hate Michigan Winters. I stick around for the Spring, Summer and Autumn, which are usually pretty spectacular.

His cooperating with the Special Counsel to save himself doesn't change who he is.

They make you stand up in front of the court and accept responsibility as part of a plea deal in criminal cases...I would have required Flynn to make a public apology to the Nation for his crimes.

Trump and the Bushes are un-American fascists. The same with Flynn, he is still a traitor.

Evil people don't become nice.

The threat of years of prison is more than adequate excuse to explain a temporary change of behavior. If it is. Betrayal of morals, code of military ethics, and duty to nation came easily enough when Obama fired Flynn. And that was before Erdogan offered Flynn $15 million for this:
