Sullivan has jurisdiction but the writ can take that away. He’s ordered to explain in a short time (9 days now) and then he’s pulled off the case.
If he rules which he won’t as there’s not enough time, whatever ruling will be quickly overturned as if it never happened. Flynn will still be able to sue those who broke the law in wrongfully prosecuting him. Furthermore, Wray just today opened an investigation into how the Flynn case was handled. That signals a criminal prosecution lies ahead.
The problem Sullivan has is Flynn has the goods on both Hillary and Obama, so his gag order must stay in place until the election when vote fraud will be ratcheted up like never before.
Sullivan is in the crossfire. He’s doing what he’s told.
Sullivan just hired a lawyer to represent him in this case.
1. What does that mean?
2. Does he pay or Gov’t pay this lawyer?
