You and the rest of the unhappy campers on this thread will never be satisfied until the lynch mob strings them up from the street lamps along Pennsylvania Avenue.

No. We want the case dismissed. Period. It's been 29 days since the DOJ dropped the case, yet Flynn remains stuck. Tell me this is anything other than a delay tactic to damage Trump.

On their side, they are sweating bullets over this order and given their joke of a brief, this is going to be another disaster for them. Marching to victory.

You are delusional, and you are not alone. The Deep State is worried about nothing.

You do realize that the DOJ ie the prosecution is now defending the defendant. They are refusing to prosecute the case. At present there is no case for Sullivan to adjudicate. He is so entirely off the rez that the DC circuit court is likely looking to quickly wrap this up and move on.

The Court of Appeals will grant the Petition for a Writ of Mandamus; and do so quickly.

I hope they do so based on gross abusive prosecutorial conduct; Constitutional Due Process violations; Brady violations; conspiracy to obstruct justice and actual obstruction of justice; violations of Title 18 U.S. Code 241/242.

I hope the COA avoids the issue of the government having absolute discretion to charge or not charge a crime, or dismiss a prosecution for any reason, or no reason, at any time.

Having read the Constitutional and Rules of Criminal Procedure, I just don't see that the Government and Flynn's argument is really strong based on the clear meaning of the written words. Yes, I know that the COA and the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the government can do so,but I think they are mistaken. What happens when the government refuses to prosecute a person for what are clearly serious felonies, even treason and sedition?

When our nation was founded, the was a common law that allowed for private prosecutors, and in some states, there are statutes enacted into law that permit this process if a prosecutor declines to do so. The State of Washington is one of them. Statutes like this address situations when a prosecutor is corrupt. In my mind, that would be very dangerous
