Attorneys for retired Gen. Michael Flynn asked a judge Friday to dismiss his criminal conviction immediately, saying new evidence belatedly turned over by federal prosecutors proves the former national security adviser to President Trump was framed in the Russia investigation.
“This afternoon, the government produced to Mr. Flynn stunning Brady evidence that proves Mr. Flynn’s allegations of having been deliberately set up and framed by corrupt agents at the top of the FBI,” Flynn’s attorneys said in an eight page filing
Brady evidence is pretrial information that could exonerate a defendant.

Back story of how Barack Obama attempted to use an executive order to prevent Donald Trump from fully becoming President and how Trump cleverly got around it.
On January 13th, 2017, a few days before Trump took Office, Obama issued an executive order saying ALL 17 US security agencies could have total access to each other. In other words, they were free to engage in collusion...and that’s exactly what they did. Pres Obama’s maneuver of January 3, 2017-——his signing of NSA Data-Sharing Order Section 2.3 out of AG Lynch’s office ——is the coupe d’etat to blow out The Deep State.
Obama’s original ex/order contains some unusual language particularly the convoluted language WRT “The Strategic Delay of Section 2.3 of Obama’s Executive Order 12333.”
NOTE WELL: Prior to the formal signing of Section 2.3, greater latitude ALREADY existed within the White House in regards to collection of information – especially in relation to the Trump Campaign. However, once signed, Section 2.3 granted broad latitude to inter-agency sharing of information.
But by the time Obama’s new executive order was signed on January 3, 2017, all that information was already in the possession of Obama White House.
Thus, Susan Rice’s January 20, 2017 email to herself takes on an even greater significance b/c no one was ever supposed to know about the REAL meaning of Obama’s retroactive actions.....until Rice stupidly laid it all out in an official email.
When Susan Rice stupidly wrote a memo to herself, she inadvertently confessed to a series of crimes that added the time line and inferences about what the outgoing Obama administration illegally concealed from incoming President Trump and his aides.
After-the-fact memos are rarely a good idea....they reveal things the author never intended——as did Susan Rice in her now-infamous email to herself on Trump’s inauguration day.
Obama’s FBI, DOJ, ODNI, CIA and intelligence officials flipped a finger at protocol....and even worse ....they were intentionally dishonest with incoming President Trump and key members of his new administration.
Obviously their lack of honesty was a serious issue.......but flipping off established protocol had serious ramifications.
This was a “justification memo”......outgoing National Security Advisor Susan Rice (soon to be replaced by Gen Flynn) needed to explain why there have been multiple false and misleading statements given to the incoming President Trump and all of his officials.
Rice’s justification memo was intended for use AFTER the Trump-Russia collusion/conspiracy narrative collapsed; if the Pelosi impeachment effort failed.
Rice’s intellectually facile “By-The-Book” reference -refers to both she and then-President Obama being told by CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director Comey, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, that President Trump was the subject of an active counterintelligence investigation to determine if he was under the influence of the Russian government. But they NEVER told candidate Trump about it.
Even the timing of Rice’s Oz-ish memo, written 15 minutes prior to the end of the Obama administration, is ex-post-facto useful as evidence of the author’s intent.......as Suzan stupidly confesses to a host of crimes.
What people miss about Susan Rice and her need to write that last memo is her attempt to craft a record of a ‘COUNTER-INTEL’ operation that was ongoing and that Obama had instructed that everything be done ‘by the book’.
What they dont say is that during a counter-intel investigation, it is permissible to lie, or in official terms ‘to disseminate disinformation’.
As long as the Obama spying was characterized as a counter-intel operation, it was legal to have words and actions left in place that might be discovered as untrue.
In other words, Rice’s final memo was an attempt to carve out a last minute get-out-of-jail pass for all those involved in the spying.
Rice likely foresaw that (her replacment Gen Flynn) and Congressional hearings might uncover false and perjured statements on the part of persons in the spy operation to which the response would be “So what? It was a Counter-Intel operation.”
This is why it was IMPERATIVE for Barr and Durham to investigate the ORIGINS because if the origins revealed no predicate, no basis, no genuine probable cause for launching a counter-intel operation, then Rice’s feeble stay-out-of-jail memo would fall apart.
I was making fun of his suggestion to delete a post. That technology is currently unavailable.
Barr seems to be an AG......quite out of the ordinary. Read on.

The unseen hand of Barr and Durham is all over the recent filings by Sidney Powell, Flynn’s atty.
These are the altered 302s that we have all been hearing about for the past year that nobody has managed to produce.
How did Powell suddenly come by them?
Earlier, Powell produced in a court filing not only the fact that that Mifsud’s Blackberrys contained Brady material, but she had both the device and the sim card serial numbers of both Blackberrys. Who could have possibly given her that information, given that Durham only recently came by them?
If one starts from the assumption that Mueller was mentally incapable of running his investigation and that Andrew Weissmann was in fact the guy in charge, and that the prosecution of General Flynn is being handled by Weissmann’s minions, everything begins to fall into place. Andrew Weissmann’s criminal tactics are all over the Flynn prosecution.
By exposing the corrupt prosecution of Flynn, Barr and Durham have not only an opportunity to bring justice to General Flynn, they help build the public narrative of a vast criminal conspiracy that included Andrew Weissmann and his enabler, Rod Rosenstein, James Comey
............(remember he bragged about setting up Flynn), and Andrew McCabe (“First we f*ck Flynn, then we F*ck Trump”)..................
And by channeling this evidence through Sidney Powell into the Flynn case, Barr and Durham get it introduced into the public domain through court filings. Plus, by having the evidence introduced in the Flynn case, the argument that Barr’s investigation is simply revenge by President Trump is shot to pieces. And who better than Sidney Powel to handle the gutting of Andrew Weissmann? She has literally written the book on his corrupt tactics: Licensed to Lie.
Powell’s efforts in the Flynn case are only tangentially about exonerating and bringing justice to General Flynn. In a much more profound sense what she is doing as an integral part of the effort to expose the criminal conspiracy to subvert the office of the Presidency of the United States.
Obama’s seditious conspiracy is in fact an attempted coup d’etat. Barr and Durham — and now with the help of Sidney Powell — are without question handling the prosecution of the most important criminal case in the history of the United States.
In this construction, General Michael Flynn is fighting the last and indisputably most important battle of his distinguished military career: The battle to save our Republic.
If Flynn had just pled guilty and went away you’d have a point. The problem here is that Flynn is trying to get the case dismissed after he not only pled guilty, but stood there in front of the judge at least TWICE and stated — under OATH — that he was guilty as charged.
If anyone thinks getting the right attorney doesn’t make a difference should look at this case. Sidney Powell got into this case late and had nothing to work with at the outset. Plus, Flynn had already pled guilty.
She has done a great job of holding the prosecution’s feet to the fire.
It would be but nobody is DC is ever punished for anything.
DC is an Accountability Free Zone.
I just want to see all these swamp traitors go to jail.
sidney powell - flynn weissmann - susan rice memo bkmk
Not going to happen.
They simply can’t go after any of them without exposing all of them, and I do mean ALL of them.
Not ONE of our elected or appointed stood for the Constitution and ALL allowed an ineligible usurper into office.
President Trump is virtually alone in DC as not being complicit in the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
Thank you. I’ll look for that. Do you recommend a link or good source?
I want to believe there are good, clean and intelligent people still in the The Swamp. Or otherwise, we have become like China or Russia, where everyone in the massive government has some skim, scam or advantage going, has done something immoral or illegal to climb the greasy pole - and because everyone’s compromised, its used by the regime as a kind of political mutually assured destruction.
See post #24 by Liz. Powell may be doing even far better than it looks at first blush.
thats cool. Often Id like to delete my own posts too!
Do not expect intelligence from people in government, particularly the deep state. The deep state holds on to power through devious ways, not by honest hard work, intelligence, skill and doing good for the people.
and because everyone’s compromised, its used by the regime as a kind of political mutually assured destruction.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That is exactly where we are.
Obama is not a natural born citizen.
BOTH parties wanted to neuter the natural born citizen requirement so they could both run ineligible candidates.
Once Obama was sworn in, he had carte blanche, as evidenced by the myriad crimes committed during the usurpation that are going unpunished.
This is the same judge that allowed the federal government’s politically motivated prosecution to destroy the career of the late Alaska Senator Ted Stevens. Stevens was exhonerated of all charges, only after the false convictions destroyed his changes for reelection.
Emmett Sullivan is a shameful disgrace of a human being, as are much of our federal judiciary.
Just don’t talk to them at all.
I can explain that.....he is a self-proclaimed LIFE LONG DEMOCRAT (he saw nothing bad until Obama was SO BLATANT in wrong-doing)....then he went to work for Trump...and VOILA! A TARGET was placed on him!!
Just watch. The judge will deny the motion and say that he may have been framed, but he lied and THAT is what he is convicted of.
And of course, he did not lie anyway.
Wait how did this happen and why did US Attorney Timothy J. Shea turn over this evidence to Sidney?
Oh yeah, Shea was appointed to review the Gen. Flynn case by AG Barr.
The guy that some people around here say is doing nothing.
