Michael Flynn Resigns as National Security Adviser
Summary: Michael Flynn, a retired general and National Security Adviser stepped down due to "mislead" vice president pence and other white house officials about his phone calls with Russian ambassadors. Flynn is in a very power place in government and the dangers of possible corruption from the Russian government are very concerning. Little is currently know about the nature of Flynn's phone calls with Russian ambassadors, although there is much speculation of it regarding the harsh trade sanctions the Obama administration out on the country.
Course content: Recently we've been talking about things that convince people into joining partys. I can see how a possible breach in national security might shake the already weak Trump administration. It's still to early to understand the full implications of this.
Opinion: I personally believe that the Trump administration's strong ties to Russia are disconcerting. Russia is a hostile country, with very little freedom who literally kills people who dont agree with the government. Russia is a country who's interests are strongly opposed to that of the US and this current administration seems to be ignoring that.
