The judge is clearly a dumbass. Treason has a very specific definition in the American Constitution, and our law. Making war against the United States, and giving Aid and comfort to an enemy. Who does this dumbass judge think we’re at war with? And how did Flynn assist an enemy of the United States?

Another affirmative action judge if you ask me

"...the judge cited Flynn’s lobbying on behalf of Turkey as an aggravating factor he was considering in sentencing Flynn –

That sounds a bit like a bank robber's sentence being impacted by the fact that he also once had a restraining order for domestic abuse.

Is there a transcript of the court proceedings from today? I cannot believe what I am seeing.

The failure to file as a lobbyist for Turkey under the Foreign Agents Registration Act hardly makes Flynn the modern-day equivalent of Benedict Arnold. It makes him the Republican version of Tony Podesta, who is enjoying his retirement in his home in the upscale Kalomara neighborhood of Washington a few doors down from the former President Obama and his family.

It's a great quote, but I look at it differently ...

Working as a foreign lobbyist while serving as a national security adviser for the presidential campaign of Donald Trump -- of all people -- makes him 'effing retarded.

Basically, the judge seems to be saying, “He’s innocent of what he is pleading guilty to, but there are other, more severe things that he might be guilty of doing. And none of what he is accused of doing relates to Trump or Russia.

Every player in this fictional tragedy wants to be THE star of the show... here comes the judge now trying to up stage Comey for air time on MSM to see who can be the biggest clown. Am sick of it all and ashamed of the republicans’ inaction... only questionable lip service.

Judge to throw the book at Flynn triggering a Trump pardon - so Trump becomes the target again? All part of the Dems plan.

Just heard Joe Digenova about 30 minutes ago on the Howie Carr Show (out of Boston).He was surprised and disappointed by Judge Sullivan today.He said that while he was a young federal prosecutor years ago judges would never have allowed him to get away with what Judge Sullivan is allowing Mueller & Pals to get away with.

They got to the judge

Btw Turkey is a member of NATO and a US ally
How can consulting with them on US policy be considered “ treason”?
Think anyone else in the USG advocates one way or the other on issues affecting Tufkey?
Is Adam Schiff registered for the policy pushing he does for Ukraine?
Is Joe Biden or his son?

It sounds to me like the judge is protecting Flynn. By throwing things out there and getting Meullers minions to deny them he is getting rid of a lot of innuendo

Sullivan is a deep state fraud in the same mold as Justice Roberts.

If I was Flynn I'd be scared shitless.

Sullivan can't be trusted to do the right thing.

Sullivan is working Flynn's strings being puppeteer for Mueller's puppet show .

Showing how incredibly crooked our “justice” system is & Trump has done basically nothing to fix it, because he’s surrounded himself with snakes (like the Serpent in Eden) telling him lies.

This may provide a better summation of what happened today.

No it does not. Flynn was a Democrat, and never a Republican. Two Democrat versions, no Republicans.
