Actually, I'm not sure that Flynn isn't committing a crime. Plotting to overthrow the constitution of the U.S. is sedition. Sure, the average person talking shit isn't illegal. But when you are actually proposing it to an unstable president, I'm not sure that isn't plotting a criminal act. At what point does talk become a plot?
What Flynn did was list what the President could do. There isn’t anything seditious about mentioning the authority the President has, particularly since (according to my exhaustive research of looking at two opinion pieces) the President doesn’t actually have that power - in this circumstance - at all.
