You asked if anyone of consequence, how about his boss? . . . and like Trump STILL talking about the election and Hillary, it's over, there may be hearings, court proceedings (Trump may now be sucking up to Flynn so he doesn't squeal like a pig), and possible further consequences (both of the election and the Trump/Russia alliance), but Flynn is gone. Treason? We'll see.

The President can bring charges of treason?
Really?
Are you sure or have once again thrown crap out there to see what sticks?
Flynn is gone, that's a given.The question is did he commit treason?

I'd rather that he get immunity for his testimony . . . then he could make a fortune writing a book and on the lecture circuit . . . enter President Ryan.

No idea if Flynn is guilty, but I'm curious to see how it plays out, here is the relevant law:

"18 U.S. Code Chapter 115 - TREASON, SEDITION, AND SUBVERSIVE ACTIVITIES

Whoever knowingly or willfully advocates, abets, advises, or teaches the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying the government of the United States or the government of any State, Territory, District or Possession thereof, or the government of any political subdivision therein, by force or violence, or by the assassination of any officer of any such government; or

Whoever, with intent to cause the overthrow or destruction of any such government, prints, publishes, edits, issues, circulates, sells, distributes, or publicly displays any written or printed matter advocating, advising, or teaching the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying any government in the United States by force or violence, or attempts to do so; or

Whoever organizes or helps or attempts to organize any society, group, or assembly of persons who teach, advocate, or encourage the overthrow or destruction of any such government by force or violence; or becomes or is a member of, or affiliates with, any such society, group, or assembly of persons, knowing the purposes thereof—

Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction.

If two or more persons conspire to commit any offense named in this section, each shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction."

When back-pedaling like that, you should occasionally check behind you for obstacles.

Clamoring? You asked a question (that has been asked before). I answered (with the same answer as before).

Brilliant rebuttal. You have convinced us all he is innocent, despite his implicit admissions.

My argument never said he was innocent. although in this country one is innocent until proven guilty.
My question was what treasonous act did Flynn commit?
So far the answer is has been to publish The US Code.
So once again, what treasonous act to Flynn commit?
No answer, lot's of speculation from many, and arguments from both sides.
Once again has Flynn been charged with treason?
The answer is still no.

Yeah and you continue claiming he committed treason....
Pretty serious charge.
Yet he's a free man, no charges filed.
I'm gonna grab a beer and ponder why this man is free to walk the streets...
