Michael Flynn Boasts Maybe He'll 'Find Somebody In Washington' With His New AR-15
Flynn, the former national security adviser pardoned by Donald Trump for lying about his Russia contacts, made the jaw-dropping remark after he was gifted the gun at the “ Church of Glad Tidings ” in Yuba City, California. Church members roared with laughter and clapped when Flynn suggested hunting humans in the nation’s capital.
“We were trying to come up with a rifle that we thought was appropriate for a general, so we went with an old-school Woodland camouflage ... one of our top-quality guns,” said Jason Parker, who works for a gun company. The weapon he presented to Flynn appeared to be a Woodland Camo AR-15 .
A smiling Flynn responded loudly: “Maybe I’ll find somebody in Washington, D.C.”
It’s hardly the first time people have called for a court-martial of Flynn, a notorious QAnon disciple who continues to collect a hefty military pension, in spite of his criminal conviction.
Retired four-star Gen. Barry McCaffrey last month blasted Flynn for calling for a Myanmar-like coup in America at a QAnon conference in May.
“This is putting the country at risk,” McCaffrey said on MSNBC . “I have never heard anything like this ... in the last hundred years. This [is] completely irresponsible, provocative language.”
McCaffrey predicted then that the U.S. Department of Justice was going to be “hard-pressed not to consider whether this language is criminal in nature.” But no action was taken.
Last year, Flynn retweeted a call for Trump to keep the White House by force , and reportedly urged Trump to use the Insurrection Act to declare martial law to stay in power.
Twitter critics were appalled at Flynn’s threat with his new rifle. One accused the Yuba church of “ arming domestic terrorists .”

What a scumbag! Although any one allied with The Turd Reich is out of their goddamned mind.
This rifle/gun whatever - was given to him by a church - what a church!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They stand for god, guns, and assassinations!
They all clapped and cheered when the scumbag said it.
Flynn belongs in a mental hospital.
Yup! Including any of his supporters/enablers.
Yeah...I think you're right.
Agree. Something seriously wrong with him. One of the last people that should have a gun.
Also I don't see how that is legal in California, to just give someone a gun.
“Maybe I’ll find somebody in Washington, D.C.”
Maybe someone will find him instead.
I wish a jail cell would find him.
A jail cell needs to find just about every member of the prior #45 criminal enterprise of an 'administration'.
His brother can be his cell mate as he is one of the seditious traitors at the capitol.
Do you think they would get it on with each other?
Totally.
The perfect example of Trump followers.
As a career military officer the general should know that violence begets violence. For sure the church here should be familiar with the Bible passage about reaping what one sews.
They would claim persecution...
Other than by political and/or family connections and patronage, how did this lunatic ever make general rank? He never should have been promoted past Colonel!
Maybe it's a form of early dementia?
Is this another rare instance where we agree Ed?
Must be a strange month...
Were there 2 full moons this month?
Either that or it's leap year.
A church that gives away assault rifles as gifts and cheers allusions to murdering politicians. I wonder if Jesus is okay with that.
Yeah, WWJD?
