I think the intelligence of journalists can be considered average.

If I remember correctly, in Jan or Feb Flynn filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea which Sullivan has not yet ruled on. Why? Most likely in order to drag the case out closer to the election so the headlines would say “Flynn sentenced to 3 years”.

The order by Sullivan for Flynn to stop filing motions that included newly released exculpatory evidence piecemeal, but instead to wait until the DOJ completed releasing newly discovered evidence was another way to avoid being forced to grant the motion to withdraw the guilty plea.

This has always been an exercise to slow down Flynn’s sentencing until close to the election. Even his court date for 16 July was for that reason. Once the Amicus files his report/brief he will then ask for counter briefs by Flynn. Then the Amicus will ask for interviews/depositions from select DOJ members of the former prosecution team. A fight over that will ensue with more delays for briefs to be filed.

This will go on for months and then, right before November, Sullivan will sentence Flynn to a long prison term. 24/7 news coverage and slandering of PDJT as having tried to interfere with “justice being served”.

My opinion.

I am still worried about the unpredictable Roberts. Which is fundamental, Flynn’s freedom or Roberts’s view of the SCOTUS’s “reputation?”

Artical authors:Two left wingers offer their opinions. Can't fault that although I disagree.

If you've never heard of PD or are unsure where it stands, check out this:

That opinion is from Influence Watch.

It doesn’t matter how much evidence the judge has because he does not judge the evidence, the jury does. He doesn’t get to present the evidence, the prosecutor does.

I find you overwrought and sensitive. Did I really need to preface my post with a “not directed to you label”.
