I fear the dismissal of the Case against the President’s ally, Flynn, at the President’s urging is just Step One of the dismantling of the rule of law in this country.

Step Two may be the arrest and prosecution of the President’s enemies.

Then we are simply an autocracy.

Is the good professor tenured? Because if not, he should contact Amazon. They are hiring.

Comrade Academician Goldman is projecting. He is simply upset that the “right people” didn’t do it first...

Interesting.Good to see that there are at least a few “progressive” lawyers who still have some fidelity to the law itself.Of course Dershowitz belongs on that list and now this guy.

The MSM and the Democrats with their “Russian Collusion” nonsense and their impeachment fiasco have shielded Obama from culpability in his plot to rig a Presidential election and then prevent a duly elected President from exercising his office. Obama is a criminal. Unless there is real justice, Obama and his cohorts will remain free and grinning. What is more, they will do it again. There must be indictments, arrests, trials, open testimony, convictions and punishment. Otherwise the American republic is in real danger.

Jonathan Turley is as much a Democrat as Nicole Wallace is a Republican.

He IS a Democrat who is still fool enough to believe that the Democrat Party has an iota of honor. Wallace is a plant.

Oh, like Obama persecuted his enemies via IRS audits, character assassination, and prosecution (a' la Dinesh d'Souza)?

Obama needs a good curb-stomping. And his wookie too.

Obama:
“And the fact that there is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free.”
BJ Clinton: “Ha-Ha!”

The courts gave us Miranda and it is now time for the courts or congress to modify the 1001 statute in a similar fashion.

This charge was intended to apply to a deliberate lie about a material fact in a legitimate investigation.

This modification would be in line with Miranda - i.e. - the person is warned that 1) there is an investigation and 2) if you lie to investigators it is a felony and 3) the interview will be recorded

What could Turley possible know about Con Law? Doesn’t he know that obama actually teleprompted Con Law a couple of times at a university?

Meanwhile, Epstein, like Ahab, is beckoning to Turley while attached in death to the great white whale of Westchester County.
