Rod Rosenstein Authorized Mueller To Investigate Flynn’s Son, Sidney Powell Says
dailycaller.com ^ | 9/11/19 | CHUCK ROSS

A lawyer for Michael Flynn said Tuesday former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein authorized special counsel Robert Mueller to investigate Flynn’s son, Michael Flynn Jr.

Sidney Powell, Flynn’s lawyer, made the revelation in an interview with Fox News’s Sean Hannity while discussing developments in Flynn’s case. Powell argued in federal court Tuesday that charges against the former national security adviser should be dismissed due to “egregious misconduct” on the part of prosecutors.

“We know that Mr. Mueller got a letter from Mr. Rosenstein that allowed him to target Michael Flynn Jr., and there was significant pressure to enter a guilty plea while they were hiding all the evidence that showed he had not been an agent of Russia, that there were no Logan Act violations,” Powell told Hannity.

Hannity asked Powell about the possibility that Flynn took a plea deal in order to protect his son from being prosecuted. Powell did not confirm Hannity’s scenario, but suggested it was possible.

“When you put together the fact that Mr. Mueller got the letter authorizing him to target Michael Flynn Jr., and they had seized Michael Flynn Jr.’s computers and electronic devices and those things, it’s not too hard to imagine that that might have happened,” she said.

“I don’t want to speak now to things that are not a matter of public record, but stay tuned because more and more will become apparent as we proceed through the litigation.”

Rosenstein appears to have been the weasel he seemed to be.

This case they brought against Flynn may actually come back to bite coup conspirators. At least one can hope.

Yeah okay. We know all about this now. Therefore what?
You know Barr will use pretzel logic to justify not bringing charges for violating any laws.

I always thought that Rod Rosenstein was a good-ole-boy Deep State Team Player. Some people in high places need ethics.

LOL. Graham promised to haul Comey in front of his committee back in March. Six months ago! And what happened? Nothing.

Yep, some people like Tom Wictor believe that it took a master spook like Flynn to expose the Intelligence Community. Though Flynn has been crucified along with the effect on his wife and family, no one else is putting the coup narrative out here with proof except him and his new attorney Sydney Powell.

Only Flynn and Powell and honest Judge Sullivan are unredacting the missing pieces hidden by Obama’s administration. Frankly, the battlefield wasn’t ready until now. Now Trump is safe from threats to impeach during first years. Our military and manufacturing is being rebuilt. It’s time for all of us to grasp the ugly criminality of the Federal mafioso.

This is what happens when a recused AG leaves a weaselly Deep State hack, Rosenstein in charge.

Hey Jeff Sessions.

Thanks for absolutely nothing!

They say not to judge a book by its cover. And, generally I agree.
But, whenever I look at that guy my alarm bells go off. He just seems to radiate an aura that raises the hairs on the back of my neck. An aura of extreme distrust.
The same for many of the players involved in this entire cabal of silent coup plotters. To include Wray by the way. Why Wray remains the Director of the FBI remains a mystery to me.
That said, I trust President Trumps innate instincts. They seem to be uncannily correct so very often.

Would love to know what Trump said to Rosenstein on Air Force One.

Wictor is delusional.

It is what it appears to be. Flynn wanted nothing to do with this and has been put through hell.
