June 19, 2017 – During a security clearance renewal process, Mike Flynn failed to disclose a Middle East trip during which he represented Russian business interests. Rep. Elijah Cummings said of Flynn’s omission, “General Flynn’s actions are part of a broader pattern of concealing his foreign contact, payments, travel and work on behalf of foreign interests.”

@DemocracyMattersALot of all the horrific characters involved in the rise of Trump fascism, Flynn offends me the most. As a 21 year Army veteran it is beyond my comprehension how an Army General could betray his country so completely.

The average of all polls on the day before Trump's conviction had Trump in the lead by 1.2 percentage points.

Then he was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records, and it has been all over the news for more than two weeks.

The result? Trump is in the lead by 1.1 percentage points.

Something is seriously wrong in the US.
