Michael Flynn. Convicted felon. Should he still receive benefits as a retired military general? Should he now be court-martialed?

You are so correct, PO2L R.. But now, are we faced with the de-construction of our beloved Constitution? Sadly, many ex-govt. employees seem to think that the man called "the curse" may become the Commander-in-Chief.

The point is, law enforcement shouldn't be able to legally lie to you.

Where are the morals? A Lt. General is questioned by the FBI, he lied to them (admitted to it) so yea, doesn’t matter who else did what he did it

PO3 Scott McConnell - The actual charge was "making untrue statements," I believe. In other words, it doesn't even have to be a deliberate lie.
As far as having admitted to it, yes, when given a choice between having the entire weight of the government attempting to crush him like a bug or just admitting to this, he chose not to fight a war he couldn't win. Might not have been the way I would have gone, but we have seen what happens to the enemies of the current administration...

SPC (Join to see) -

Well Fort Sumpter comes to mind. Perhaps a reading of the 14th Amendment would be of help here. They knew what they were there for, and it was m not a Winnie roast.

SPC (Join to see) - Insurrection does not mean violence, necessarily, though there was plenty on J6 (just ask USCPD and DCMPD). Blatantly attempting to halt a Constitutional process in an attempt to nullify election results, however, is definitely insurrection.

Regarding General Flynn’s pension. FROM VA.GOV: Veterans who receive VA pension payments will have their benefits terminated on the 61st day after being imprisoned for a felony conviction. : Which means he keeps his benefits because he was not imprisoned he used his get out of jail free pass (pardon). (I do like it but it i what it is unless he gets court-martialed

SSG Douglas Shaffer - But not the shenanigans he's pulled since then. Like advocating violent overthrow of government.

Amn Joseph H. - Are you deliberately ignoring this guy trusted with national security secrets was taking money from an enemy country not automatically a traitor? What about members of Congress and the current President?

I believe every member of the military is a U.S. citizen and the laws of the land still apply to all citizens. Therefore, it would be a violation of our laws to try a citizen twice for the same offense. Yes, I was subject to the UCMJ when I served in the Army. I didn't agree with the double jeopardy then and I am of the same opinion now.

Just sayin'.

In my opinion, While I agree with you SGT Meza, that general fin should not be punished twice. In actuality, he has not been punished at all. He was convicted once and he then used his get out of jail free pass (Presidential Pardon), but that doesn’t relieve him of the military responsibilities annd regulations since he WAS using the cloak of General no one relieved him of the UCMJ articles.it would not be double jeopardy..
