Flynn and his company filed the registration paperwork describing $530,000 worth of lobbying before Election Day on behalf of Inovo BV, a Dutch-based company owned by Turkish businessman Ekim Alptekin. In an interview with The Associated Press, Alptekin said Flynn did so after pressure from Justice Department officials.

So just to be clear: Flynn performed over a half-million dollars worth of lobbing on behalf of Inovo BV before election day without registering as a foreign agent. And he has only now filed the paperwork?

Being as that’s illegal as hell, you may wonder why he isn’t being prosecuted. Yeah, me too.

And let’s not forget how Comrade Chaos has praised the authoritarian excesses of Turkish President Erdoğan.
