I was a little surprised by the Pardon of General Flynn.
He deserved to be exonerated. Completely.
And I think POTUS held off as long as possible to see that happen.
But him Issuing the Pardon means something changed.
A line has been crossed and the appearance of the event no longer mattered.
At some point theopticswill cease to matter.
And I think we are very close to that point.
