Trump’s Birds of a Feather, Flock Together…
As Donald Trump’s main lackey in Nevada, Adam Laxalt is now shouting from the rooftops about his endorsement from the former Trump aide who pleaded guilty to a felony, Michael Flynn. Flynn and Laxalt’s political love for each other comes as no surprise as BOTH lie blindly for their political patron, Donald Trump, and for their own political gain.
Laxalt And Flynn: Fueling The Deadly Insurrection On January 6th
Flynn appeared to cheer on the events of January 6th, saying there was “no reason” why the United States should not have a coup to overthrow the federal government, before trying to back track. Like Flynn, Laxalt is a Trump lackey who was a leader in the “Stop the Steal” campaign that helped fuel the deadly insurrection at the Capitol on January 6. Laxalt has never condemned the violence, and his only public comment on the violence was to complain that the insurrection hurt Trump.
Laxalt And Flynn: Cashing In Politically With Foreign Criminals
Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his Russian ties and had previously run up against federal law enforcement for failing to register as a foreign agent. Just like Flynn, Laxalt has been embroiled in a national corruption case involving foreign actors who tried to funnel foreign funds to his campaign. Court documents revealed that Laxalt had extensive communications with the Trump associates involved, which marked a brand new pay-to-play scandal for Laxalt, who had a history of corruption from his time as Attorney General.
Laxalt and Flynn: Tying Themselves to Trump No Matter What
Flynn has been so loyal to Trump that he ultimately was given a Presidential Pardon to escape his legal trouble. Like Flynn, Laxalt is entirely dependent on Trump’s support in order to succeed and is now basing his campaign for the U.S. Senate around Trump to make sure he wins his primary.
Statement from Nevada Democratic Spokesperson, Andy Orellana:
“Cheerleaders for Trump’s Big Lie that fueled the events of January 6th and members of Trump’s corrupt inner-circle: Adam Laxalt and Micheal Flynn are two peas in a pod. Nevadans know that Laxalt and allies like Michael Flynn are too dangerous and extreme for our state because they’ll push any legal boundaries to get ahead.”
