Too bad the military doesn’t grow a pair and recall Michael Flynn for a court martial. If anyone ever deserved to have the book thrown at them it’s Flynn.

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.
