President-elect Donald Trump has fired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn’s son from Trump’s transition team for sharing fake news. Michael Flynn is Trump’s pick for national security adviser. His son, also named Michael Flynn, has come under fire for sharing fake news pushed by right-wing websites. In one such tweet, Flynn wrote, “U decide–NYPD Blows Whistle on New Hillary Emails: Money Laundering, Sex Crimes w Children, etc…MUST READ!” and then linked to a fake news article on the website TruePundit.com. Among the conspiracy theories Flynn has pushed is one claiming Hillary Clinton and other prominent Democrats were running a child sex ring from the back rooms of a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant. On Sunday, an armed North Carolina man was arrested after walking into the restaurant, Comet Ping Pong, and then firing at least one shot. He said he was inspired by the fake news stories.
