To let him know that after the inauguration, Trump will have more flexibility.

Uh, yes. Barack Obama was, and remains, the President of the United States. Michael Flynn is nothing at present.

Haha, somebody is drunk and got a little courage up to night, huh?

Welcome back from your crybaby hiatus, More. I like the natural reverence you bestow on your betters.

This is not correct. He's the President-elect's National Security Advisor

It's a cool business card I admit. Still - nothing.

What do you mean, nothing? He is the senior advisor to Donald Trump, the President-elect, on National Security issues.

Is Steve Bannon nothing? Reince Preibus? None of these are cabinet positions and needn't be approved by the Senate

If you can point me to any legal authority of these individuals to act on behalf of the United States before inauguration, I'll listen.

Better yet, authority supporting their ability to undercut existing US foreign policy prior to their boss taking office?

I think your outlook is intellectually lazy. He has no official power but will soon. Nothing strange about him getting ready to work in a little over a week. (or 3-4 if youre counting from 12/29)

So you have proof that Flynn undercut US foreign policy during his communication?

I'm sure most media would love an interview with you; along with some security agencies, given that it would appear that you eavesdropped on a incoming government official.

Try the company twitters. I'm sure they'll respond quickly. Or is your post entirely speculation?
