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.
