General Flynn Drops Bombshell On Mike Pence: “Fake Christian”

Former National Security Adviser Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn has launched his strongest public attack yet against former Vice President Mike Pence, accusing him of betrayal, hypocrisy, and silence amid one of the most turbulent political chapters in recent memory.

In a fiery series of posts shared on X, Flynn did not hold back. “Sadly, it appears a former VP of the USA @Mike_Pence was as bad as they say he was,” Flynn wrote, lamenting what he called “a combination of communism creeping into our government, seriously compromised politicians wasting taxpayers’ hard-earned money, and a bloated bureaucracy that needs radical reform and reduction.”

Flynn, who served briefly as President Trump’s national security adviser before being targeted in the FBI’s controversial “Crossfire Hurricane” probe, cited a resurfaced 2019 thread suggesting that Obama-era officials may have coordinated with members of Pence’s staff during the early Russia investigation. The thread included claims that then–Attorney General Loretta Lynch and Deputy AG Sally Yates “broke all protocols” by running a “backchannel” between FBI agent Peter Strzok and Pence’s office — a move Flynn and his supporters see as evidence of a deep-state plot.

In his post, Flynn urged Americans to “say a prayer that @realDonaldTrump is the leader that can fix these severe problems. I do everyday.”

But the retired general wasn’t finished. Hours later, Flynn followed up with an even sharper message, accusing Pence of personal betrayal.

“To this day, @Mike_Pence has never reached out,” Flynn wrote. “Not once did Mr. fake Christian ever call or message me to say; ‘Mike, I’m sorry for what your family went through.’ NOT ONCE.”

Flynn continued, “He was and still is a big phony. Sorry Mike, I don’t hold any grudges (I don’t live like that) but millions of Americans do (and will).”

The feud between Flynn and Pence traces back to early 2017, when Flynn was forced out of the Trump administration following allegations that he misled Pence about his conversations with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak. Flynn has long maintained that he was unfairly targeted by corrupt officials — and that Pence’s decision to side with the intelligence community helped legitimize what he and many conservatives view as a political setup.

While Pence has largely avoided addressing Flynn directly, the latest outburst underscores a growing rift within the conservative movement. Trump allies continue to see Flynn as a patriot wronged by the system — while Pence, who broke with Trump over the 2020 election certification, remains a divisive figure among the MAGA base.

Flynn’s words come at a time when Donald Trump has solidified his return to the White House and his closest allies are reclaiming key roles in Washington.

“Radical reform and reduction,” Flynn wrote, calling for a complete shake-up of Washington’s entrenched establishment. “It’s heartbreaking how corrupt our nation has become.”
