Michael Flynn Wins Russian Atomic Medal of Honor



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.
