(CNN) Sixteen former Watergate prosecutors have told a federal judge he has the authority to sentence former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn to prison despite the Justice Department's effort to toss the case.
The filings add prominent voices to the backlash against Attorney General William Barr's softening of criminal prosecutions against President Donald Trump's associates.
In legal memos sent to the court on Monday and obtained by CNN, the former prosecutors essentially laid out the legal footing they believe Judge Emmet Sullivan has to reject the dismissal request and sentence Flynn, who had pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI.
They compared the current situation at the Justice Department to Watergate, the scandal and criminal investigation that led to the President Richard Nixon's resignation.
The group, calling themselves friends of the court or "amici" in legal parlance, "experienced the 'Saturday Night Massacre,' during which an honorable Attorney General and an honorable Deputy Attorney General resigned or were dismissed rather than obey the instructions of a self-interested President to frustrate the work of an independent Special Prosecutor," they wrote to the judge.

Certainly understand and feel your frustration FRiend.
We do however have recourse and we are winning through prayer and President Trump.
Let’s not surrender that. Let’s double our efforts and let elected representatives in DC and at the state level know we demand better and stronger penalties for intel interference in our country’s elections.
The “just like Watergate” scandal was the Obama administration’s politicized abuse of power, attempting to produce an internal coup based on what they knew was a hoax - which it’s holdover DOJ officials continued right into the early days of the Trump administration.
Please go to your altar and pray to your false letter god and “Trust Wray.”
Adults are trying to have a real discussion.
But I can see your MAGAcoalition short pants, snookems.

Not so much a step as a point of evidence. The courts are highly political, and have been so for decades. Since at least FDR court-packing threat.
The legal process is pretty much outcome first, reasoning second. There are sufficient precedents (and few people check if they really stand for the proposition claimed) to justify any outcome the judge or appellate panel chooses.
“You are what we thought you were.”
You won’t find me morning drinking and kneeling at the false god of a letter in the alphabet praying before a “Trust Wray” statue.
Definitely not. “Trusty the Plan.” LMAO!
Absent DOJ prosecution (People of the United States of America), he is all out of options. Powell nipped any Special Prosecutor in the bud in her motion.
This derp lop is just trying to muddy up the DOJ, Flynn, and Trump before he dismisses with a bunch of derp state propaganda submitted as some kind of faux legalism.
Oh, that'll work. /s
Probly not, but I bet I will find you kneeling before something and drinking.
If you catch my drift.
This Judge has been told what to do and how to do it. The issues before him and the law are the least of his concerns. Must tow the RAT line.
Somebody has to play powerful word games though.
What has Flynn pled to after the prosecutor says “no crime?” Assuming for sake of argument Flynn lied, that lie is not material, so there is no crime.
The plea is “guilty to the information” (there was no indictment). Okay, fine, but the information is fatally flawed. The facts in the case don’t support a finding of materially false statement. That’s what the Gov’t Motion to Dismiss lays out, with facts and evidence.
My thoughts too. How do you force them to prosecute?
Are you seriously discouraging FReepers from putting pressure on the judge while at the same time the derps are pressuring him?
I think you're a dirty spy for the bad guys.
Anti-Q, Anti-Flubro, Anti-Flynn. You're on the wrong side of every issue. But you support Trump. Sure you do.
Something about you reeks, shillbot.
I look back and Nixon looks like Mother Theresa compared to Obama the most corrupt POTUS EVER!! This bastard weaponized our ENTIRE government!!
Nope, I am not a worshipper of stupid grifters who claim an alphabet letter is worthy of worship.
No matter how wrong those people calling themselves a letter are, I won’t bow.
But hey, “Trust Wray.”
Hes black.....untouchable.
Correct. The more the facts come out the more this becomes an issue in the November election. Democrats are not going to enjoy seeing the Gestapo tactics of Comey and Obamas DOJ. They will look like fools. The DNC media does not want to cover this now, they will be forced to.
This is just meant to keep the LIES about Flynn in the news.
WHO would hire ANY of these CROOKED Lawyers??
