Former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who twice pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI but then received a pardon, suggested earlier this month he would use a gifted AR-15 rifle to shoot someone in Washington, D.C.

In a video posted on Twitter, Flynn is seen on stage with a group of people. A man also standing on stage explained he was giving Flynn the gun because "We were trying to come up with a rifle that we thought was appropriate for a general, so we went with an old-school Woodland camouflage ... one of our top-quality guns."
