#1 Flynn is no potted plant. If I had to guess [and it is only a guess] I suspect Mike Flynn and his deputy were beating the Iraqi warning drums a bit too hard. Their great sin however, may have been the attempted transformation of DIA from a featherbed for beltway senior grades to a more relevant organization focused on the warfighter. Plumpish old dem voting, greybeaver SES's have no desire for overseas tours I assure you. Their greatest daily challenge is making their way from the DIA cafeteria to the elevator and back to their offices with take-away boxes. DIA should be at the very top of the flush list.

#4 This administration has zero tolerance for debate, disagreement, or dissent. This is the mark of a tyrant. There is an old Irish curse appropriate to Bumble: "Gurab ecen mer dot munad in airecht!" In other words, "May you become so insignificant that it be necessary to point you by finger (preferably the middle finger) in a crowd!"

#6 This administration has zero tolerance for debate, disagreement, or dissent.

There can most certainly be no debate on that issue. I give you the IRS as current example.
