I love your optimism, but the problem with it is that Barr is over the DOJ. It was Sidney Powell, not Barr that forced the DOJ to drop the Flynn case. Barr was going to let the DOJ hang Flynn. Barr should have been the one who reviewed his own department and dropped the case himself since Flynn is an innocent man!

He did do this. He ordered Jeff Jensen, a United States Attorney and a former FBI agent, to review the case. Jensen is the one who wrote the motion to dismiss.

I will concede that it should have happened long ago, but in the end it happened, he ordered it, and he acted on the findings.

It was too slow for my liking also, but the whole Flynn case has been strange from the outset given that he pled guilty long ago and was awaiting sentencing for an eternity.

I get it. The glass half empty side of me says this should have been done immediately. However, the glass half full side says it was done. It was a huge blow to the crown jewel of the Mueller probe. Today Barr took a grade A dump all over the whole thing.

Barr has the goods. The left will howl and gnash their teeth, but he 1) asserted that he is not partisan and 2) he basically promised us that he will back up his words with what he knows, just as DOJ did with the motion to dismiss the Flynn case.
