Hey, remember the 2016 election? You know the one. It was that two year long waking nightmare that ended with a puppet of the Russian government being elected President of the United States? Yeah. Good times. Well, a large part of that campaign involved Donald Trump constantly attacking Hillary Clinton over the way she used email while she was Secretary of State and claiming that her mishandling of classified information not only disqualified her from the Presidency, but also that it meant he would "lock her up" if he were elected.

Of course, it didn't matter that Hillary was cleared by the FBI of doing anything illegal. Bloodthirsty crowds had decided she deserved to be locked up and Trump encouraged them. Now our new Glorious Leader has already backed down on his threat to jail his political opponent (what a guy!), but it hasn't stopped him from making top administration picks that show how deep his hypocrisy goes.

Enter Michael T. Flynn, Donald Trump's pick for National Security Advisor. Now Flynn has already come under fire for his penchant for spreading conspiracy theories online (just what you want from your National Security Advisor!) but now it comes out that, despite being one of the loudest "lock her up!" Trump supporters during the campaign, the Washington Post has discovered that Flynn himself had previously and inappropriately shared classified information with foreign military leaders.

The U.S. military opened the investigation into Flynn in 2010 after receiving a complaint from an unnamed Navy intelligence specialist, according to the documents. The intelligence officer charged that Flynn violated rules by “inappropriately” sharing secrets with “various foreign military officers and/or officials in Afghanistan.” The documents do not reveal the nature of the information. But former U.S. officials familiar with the case said it centered on slides and other materials containing classified information about CIA operations in Afghanistan.

Now, Flynn was not reprimanded after the investigation, because it was decided that he had not intentionally revealed the classified info and there was no harm done. But of course, that shouldn't matter, right? After all, when the same facts were said about Hillary Clinton, Flynn and Trump wanted her jailed. Hypocrisy, thy name is the Donald Trump administration.
