(Alex Wroblewski/Getty Images) Former Trump advisor and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn denied claims over the weekend that he supports a Burma-style coup in the United States.
In comments published on Telegram and Parler, Flynn wrote that mainstream media outlets manipulated his words and took them out of context.
“For all the fake news ‘journalists’: Let me be VERY CLEAR,” he wrote, “there is NO reason whatsoever for any coup in America, and I do not and have not at any time called for any action of that sort.”
“Any reporting of any other belief by me is a boldface fabrication based on twisted reporting at a lively panel at a conference of Patriotic Americans who love this country, just as I do,” he continued, adding that he is “no stranger to media manipulating my words and therefore let me repeat my response to a question asked at the conference: There is no reason it (a coup) should happen here (in America).”
Sidney Powell, who filed several third-party lawsuits on behalf of former President Donald Trump and who had represented Flynn in a case, said that the media “grossly distorted” his comments, adding that he doesn’t endorse “any act of violence or any military insurrection.”
Over the past weekend, a number of news outlets including The Hill, CNN, MSNBC, and others reported that Flynn had attended a conference on Sunday where he was asked by an audience member: “I want to know why what happened in Myanmar can’t happen here?” Myanmar is also known as Burma, and the audience member mispronounced the name.
Flynn appeared to respond: “No reason. I mean … it should happen here.” He didn’t elaborate, and the remarks appeared to be off-the-cuff.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
