The son of top Donald Trump adviser and retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn regularly shares conspiracy theories, expletive-filled posts, and racially insensitive sentiments on Twitter and Facebook, a CNN KFile review of his social media presence reveals.

Flynn's son, Michael G. Flynn, shared stories alleging top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin had a connection to the Muslim Brotherhood, pushed a conspiracy theory that Sen. Marco Rubio was a closeted homosexual who abused cocaine, and repeatedly used expletives to attack Trump's political opponents.

The retired general has been offered the role of national security advisor, a transition official told CNN Thursday. The younger Flynn serves as his father's chief of staff and top aide, attending events alongside his father and working for his father's consulting firm, Flynn Intel Group. The elder Flynn credited his son with editing his book and frequently tags his son in tweets. In a photo on Facebook, the younger Flynn can be seen walking with Trump backstage.

A request for comment sent to Flynn and his son, as well as a spokesperson, was not returned. A spokesperson for the Trump campaign also did not return a request for comment.

Long article, with lots of examples of the insane, vicious garbage Flynn's son has been circulating and promoting.

1. I saw Barry McCaffrey trying to normalize him on MSNBC.

Not happening--that guy is a LUNATIC and he is a disgrace not just to his branch, but to EVERYONE who serves or has ever served in uniform.

People know what a loose cannon he is. He's Lieutenant General Strangelove.

3. I saw that interview too. Barry is no idiot.

I think that he was trying to cover his own ass. He can see the same shit storm coming down the pike that the rest of us sees...

The last thing that he wants to do is get on the wrong side of it while it's on the upswing.

When the downfall starts, he just might speak his mind a little less politically

4. Which makes him flat-out useless as a pundit, really!

IMO, he overstated the guy's talents. Operational skills are a mile away from analytical ones, and I think the LTGEN is a bit outta balance!

I'll be blunt-he scares the living shit outta me!

8. And his son, who is his chief aide is even worse

Something seriously wrong with that family.
Couple of sandwiches short of a picnic.

6. I saw it, too, and McCaff was praising Flynn as one of the best in security

How can he be on Don's side about Russia, then? I guess they are forming some kind of US-Russia share-the-world-power scheme.

2. Oh, great. First Bannon and now this creep.

I will just assume it goes even further downhill from here.

[MADem]

5. It does ....... JEFF SESSIONS, COME ON DOWN!!!!!!!

[dhol82]

7. I don't know how long my stomach can hold out

All the swamp creatures are being paraded about.

9. Ain't that the truth! I am STUNNED at the people this ass is nominating.

People with zero experience--or the wrong kind of experience--in their designated duties. Flynn, especially, is TERRIFYING. That guy makes the Strangelovian generals seem temperate. He does NOT work and play well with others at all--a real loose cannon.
