Folks have talked about this for several years here on DU but in reality nothing has ever been done and most likely never will be. We can complain all we want, and will. There seems to be no will on the part of the powers that be.

questions on live TV, which will happen, just like they did during Watergate and Iran / Contra then we will see what the chips you might say fall.
But I believe that Flynn will be court-martialed, he has basically advocated to the over throwing of a government.....and he had ties to being a foreign agent and he basically lied about that .....but since he was granted a "pardon"....he cannot be tried under the doubled jeopardy clause of the law, for his previous lying to another crime, but this a separate different issue ......but like I said we will see were the chips fall......

... but I have heard the phrase "if you represent yourself you have a fool for a client" many times. You may have a RIGHT to represent yourself, but it's a damn stupid thing to do.


Agree with him on the other points though.
