The Chickens could be coming home to roost once again for the bullshitters at CNN:


Judge Hands Down Big Win to Gen. Flynn, Will Allow His Family to Sue CNN

CNN may have the opportunity to write another check for doing its job poorly, this time to relatives of former Trump national security advisor Michael Flynn for labeling them followers of the QAnon conspiracy theory.

You’ll recall CNN reportedly wrote a very large check to former Covington High School student Nicholas Sandmann last year after falsely claiming he had confronted and sought to belittle a Native American gentleman during a protest in Washington, D.C. It was actually that man who had approached and stood toe-to-toe with the teenager.

Sandmann was wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat, and the establishment media read into the encounter what it wanted to see. But when video of the incident started circulating, CNN, The Washington Post and other left-wing outlets had to backtrack.

On Thursday, a federal judge allowed a case brought by Flynn’s brother John “Jack” Flynn and sister-in-law Leslie Flynn to proceed against CNN.

Of course, CNN “news” coverage seems to go off the rails when it deals with any subject or person even remotely tied to former President Donald Trump.

Continuing on their current Fake News path, CNN is doomed.

Flynn himself has, at the very least, spent a LOT of time around Qanon members, and there's video of him taking their oath (although he denies that's what it is, other people who definitely are members say it is). The only real question is whether he's a member or just an ally.

Reportedly; but the terms of the settlement have not been made public. I sincerely doubt the check was anywhere near as large as you think it ought to be.

Didn't think they were an actual organization, with oaths and membership rolls.

I don't know as much about it as I could, but there is even a hashtag, #TakeTheOath - and Flynn used it on July 5, 2020. The oath in question is the standard oath of office taken by all officeholders, followed by "Where we go one we go all".

Believe it or not, Flynn's lawyer claimed Flynn - a rock-ribbed Trumpie who was considered as Trump's running mate - was just quoting an engravement on a bell on John F. Kennedy's sailboat. Yeah, and I've got a bridge I could sell you for a song...
