Secret Service Alerted After Michael Flynn Posts Online Message ‘Threatening’ Barack Obama

The United States Secret Service was flagged after retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn posted on Twitter that former President Barack Obama “must be held accountable.”

Flynn was responding to another Twitter user’s message: “Never Forget who these people are and what they did!” 

That led Flynn to reply, “I’m like an elephant, except I’m an Irish elephant. Not only will I never forget, I will never forgive. People must be held accountable.”

“And you all know precisely who you are. [Obama] yup, starts with you,” Flynn said. “You tried to destroy my family as well as [Trump] and his family along with our country…unforgivable,” Flynn added.

Investigative reporter Dave Troy flagged Flynn’s posting with a note calling for the Secret Service to get involved.

“No big deal. Just a Putin-aligned retired general threatening a former president. What do you say@SecretService, does he get a doorknock, or are we no longer in that business? The public wants to know.@POTUS @NatSecCNN“

Flynn has hated Obama ever since the former president warned Donald Trump not to hire the ex-general for a position in his first administration.

“Former President Obama warned President Donald Trump against hiring Mike Flynn as his national security adviser, three former Obama administration officials tell NBC News.”

“The warning, which has not been previously reported, came less than 48 hours after the November election when the two sat down for a 90-minute conversation in the Oval Office.”

Despite that warning, Trump hired Flynn as his national security adviser, only to sack him three weeks later for lying to then-Vice President Mike Pence when asked about conversations he’d had with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. regarding the easing of sanctions on Russia.

It remains unclear if Trump will bring Flynn back once he takes office again in January. Could Flynn even pass a security check or be trusted with classified information?

Of course, considering that Trump himself stored classified documents in unsecured locations at his Mar-a-Lago resort, national security doesn’t exactly seem to be a high priority for Donald or those around him.

Ana Navarro Calls Elon Musk Trump’s ‘First Lady’ And Social Media Can’t Stop Laughing

CNN commentator Ana Navarro says Twitter CEO Elon Musk needs a new title after appearing in a family photo with Donald Trump and his family at Mar-a-Lago.

Navarro’s remarks came after host Anderson Cooper reported that Musk was on a phone call Trump made to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky this week, according to Mediaite.

“What do you make of him joining this call?” Anderson Cooper asked.

GOP strategist Scott Jennings replied, “That doesn’t surprise me at all. Of course, Donald Trump can put anyone on the phone that he wants. I mean, I assume a lot of these calls are congratulatory in nature. So, as further, more policy-driven calls take place, I would expect there to be other policy and administration officials or designated officials on the calls. But at some juncture, Trump won, and he’s got a cadre of advisers that’s obviously gonna include Elon Musk. And so, I don’t think anybody should be surprised by this or alarmed by it either way.”

Navarro agreed that the call was nothing odd but then referenced the photo that didn’t contain Melania Trump but did feature Musk.

“I think it’s a little weird, right? I mean, Elon Musk seems to be everywhere at all times. He’s like, secretary of everything, and at the same time, he’s like First Lady. The other day I saw this picture of him. It was a picture of Trump with his entire family except Melania, but Elon Musk was there. And now you hear about this. There’s obviously also conflicts of interest. This is somebody who has contracts with the Department of Defense. This is somebody who has Starlink that’s a big part of what’s going on in Ukraine.”

“I find it a little weird. But as Scott said, they won. He gets to do whatever he wants, and if he wants Elon everywhere, all the time, that’s what’s going to happen.”

Navarro’s comments set off a wave of laughter and mockery on Musk’s social media site, which continues to lose millions of dollars.

Tucker Carlson’s Comment About ‘Daddy’ Trump ‘Spanking’ The Country Weirds Out The Internet

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson is back again, shilling for disgraced ex-president Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Georgia on Wednesday. However, some of Carlson’s comments raised more than a few eyebrows on social media.

Carlson oddly compared the country to a toddler with a dirty diaper, a teenager smoking a joint at the breakfast table, and a “hormone-addled 15-year-old daughter” who flips off her parents and then slams her bedroom door.

Yeah, because that’s how we all see the United States, right?

The solution to the bad behavior, Carlson continued, can be found when “dad” comes home and restores order amidst the chaos.

“Dad is pissed!”

“And when Dad gets home, you know what he says? You’ve been a bad girl. You’ve been a bad little girl and you’re getting a vigorous spanking right now,” Carlson said. “And, no, it’s not going to hurt me more than it hurts you. No it’s not. I’m not going to lie. It’s going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me. And you earned this. You’re getting a vigorous spanking because you’ve been a bad girl, and it has to be this way.”

What in the hell was that, Tucker?! Smeared diapers and slammed doors, but “daddy” is going to give her a spanking? Sounds like a sick fantasy that might have sprung from the demented imagination of Trump himself, who has been accused of sexually assaulting dozens of women and also expressed a sexual attraction to his daughter, Ivanka, when she was only 13 years old.

Carlson’s bizarre comments set off a wave of revulsion and mockery on social media. Take a look.

Kristi Noem Tries To Troll Barack Obama But Only Succeeds In Owning Herself

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) took time off Tuesday from killing puppies to try and troll former President Barack Obama, but she only managed to humiliate herself for the entire internet to see.

Obama brought up Noem’s name while campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris in Madison, Wisconsin, noting that had been onstage with Trump when the disgraced ex-president ended a rally in Pennsylvania and danced to music for nearly 40 minutes last week.

“She’s standing there with this weird look on her face like she doesn’t really know what’s going on. It’s like a hostage video,” Obama said to laughter from supporters at the rally.

That comment severely triggered Noem, who decided she’d try and get her revenge on Twitter/X, posting, “I couldn’t decide if I wanted to make a joke about Obama’s failed presidency…or his being besties with Diddy…or how it’s his fault we have Joe Biden in the first place… Then I remembered I just don’t care what @BarackObama thinks!”

That was all it took to set off a torrent of mockery aimed at the dog killer.

Trump’s Latest Verbal Gaffes About His Age Have People Suggesting ‘His Brain Is Broken’

Granted, we’ve had this concern before, but it seems former President Donald Trump’s actions and words keep necessitating a return to the issue.

The issue is whether or not Trump is mentally fit to even be allowed in public.

More proof suggesting that the disgraced ex-president is indeed non compos mentis arrived over the weekend when he was speaking at a campaign rally in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and suggested that at 78 he’s not too old to serve as head of state because 78 isn’t that close to 80.

“I’m not 80, and I’m not that close to 80.”

However, Trump’s next verbal gaffe is what set off waves of concern on social media.

“I have no cognitive,” Trump said at the rally. “She might have a cognitive problem. There’s no cognitive problem.”

And then, a few minutes later, Trump repeated that he’s “got no cognitive,” but failed to complete the sentence.

Does Trump have cognitive issues? It certainly sounds like he does, and the latest evidence kicked off a new round of debate and chiding online.
