Heck ... this weeks circus revolves around the sentencing hearing for a crime where the plea deal was made MORE THAN TWO YEARS AGO.
Re # 16: your posts have been the rare instances of sanity on the Flynn case. But very few people want to see it that way, and so they won’t.
The problem was that the proof of government fraud and misconduct was not available BEFORE the guilty plea, because the government and the FISA courts themselves have spent four years stalling and preventing their misconduct from becoming available.
Furthermore, at the time of the guilty plea, the Mueller gestapo was actively threatening to make up charges against Flynn’s son.
Sullivan gets fair too much credit for being intolerant of government misconduct. He actively presided over the destruction of Senator Ted Stevens career and reputation before finally overturning the conviction after his political carrer had been ruined, in the face over overwhelming evidence over government fraud and misconduct that would have easily led an appeals court to overturn the conviction and admonish Sullivan. And now he lets the Flynn persecution continue into its fourth year.
