Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, the director of the DIA, apologized, as any government official in his position would. He seemed to be aware that he was playing out of his league. He sent a public affairs officer out with the agency’s regrets. “I’m not going to deny that [the briefing] exists,” she said, “and it was bad. It was inappropriate for sure. Neither the agency nor the leadership has condoned anything that was in that briefing.” The clear message, as reported by U.S. News & World Report, is that Jane is free to be as plain as she likes, with neither make-up nor painted nails.
