Appeals court orders judge to dismiss Flynn charges
The Hill ^ | 6/24/20 | Harper Neidig

Posted on 06/24/2020 7:48:48 AM PDT by Dana1960

A federal appeals court on Wednesday ordered a judge to grant the Department of Justice's (DOJ) unusual move to drop charges against former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

A three-judge panel on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals approved Flynn's petition to intervene in the case after a district court judge had tapped an outside counsel to argue against the DOJ's move.

When Judge Sullivan dismisses Flynn’s case his gag order on Flynn goes away. Hopefully we will then hear what Flynn knows about the Obozo crime family.

Seems like that would open Sullivan up to charges of contempt of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. They have the final word. They gave him an order. If he tries to go over their head, he should be in contempt.

Flynn may have a hang gliding accident.

“Sadly we have a race war on because of these white haters .”

What race war? Do you see any whites fighting?

If anything I see a lot of self-loathing whites debasing themselves and their race.

A friend who used to work for Flynn thinks he’d be better in a high level intelligence role than at FBI.

He already was Director of DIA.

I’d be good with something where he has strong power to reform the swamp.

I’m shocked to see that Wilkins has so much in common with Sullivan. They be sticking together.

The judge doesn’t have standing to appeal the order

I think Fox News gave him a lot of air time yesterday. I didn’t watch much but those few minutes I tuned in was a few minutes of my life wasted.

Maybe Flynn has information that can assist Durham in putting these bastards in jail! Paybacks are hell!

Flynn would not be a good choice for FBI Director.

Department of Justice's (DOJ) move to drop charges

They just can't help but try to slip a knife in with the gratuitous, prejudicial and utterly unfounded editorializing.

Adjectives invite litigation. Furthermore, it wasn't a "move." It was a motion.

Motions to dismiss are usual and ordinary. They are provided for in rule 48.
