Michael Flynn Wins Russian Atomic Medal of Honor
Putin insists former National Security Advisor Michael Fynn travel to Russia to claim the newly-created Atomic Medal of Honor prior to talking to Congress and the FBI.
The Kremlin explained the newly-created award was designed specifically "for high-profile individuals who had earned the attention and admiration of Russian President Vladimir Putin."
Upon hearing the news, Flynn commented, "I am both honored and surprised. I had never heard of the Atomic Medal of Honor before today, and was unaware I was being considered for it."

If not and it's real, I would advise Flynn not to go.
And at all costs avoid 4th floors and car trunks.

Award is a small bullet shaped metal object that fits nicely through the frontal lobe when "presented" by Mr. Putin's representative. Gets rid of need to tell further stories at pesky hearings.
