Sounds like this is finally over.
Maybe the order is to certify that the current position of the DOJ is correct, as is its analysis of prior errors and falsifications.
I would not certify that stuff. Its not correct.
You’re the author of this?
The article lists it as Bill Mears.
It is fine if the judge is specific about each piece of evidence he wants such a certification for, and with the understanding that the DOJ is not going to certify any evidence that had ever been submitted in the lengthy case if that evidence is evidence the DOJ now rejects. The only evidence the current DOJ team needs to defend is the evidence of prior DOJ errors which caused it to drop the charges.
A happy thought just occurred to me: we have all been so upset at Sullivan’s intransigence and Durham’s idleness, because we all saw the election as a deadline. But assuming President Trump is reelected, as now seems likely, all that worry goes away. There will be plenty of time to clear Gen. Flynn so that he can take over as head of the FBI.
I think the judge is looking for a way to end the case on his own terms, with the DOJ forced into a humiating admission and laid open to possible sanctions for misconduct. In effect, the judge seems to be redirecting his ire from Flynn to the DOJ.
The whole point was that the evidence against Flynn was NOT true and correct and the DOJ had an obligation by law to drop the charges. If they certify that it is true (i.e. Flynn did lie) then it makes them appear they are dropping a case for political reasons.
I don’t believe the DOJ has any obligation of this sort once they have dropped charges against someone. The evidence is moot and should be ignored by the trial judge at that point. A judge determines the truth of the evidence when presented by not when the prosecutor believes it does not show guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. What law school did Sullivan go to?
Sydney Powell has filed a motion to disqualify dirtbag Sullivan and force him to recuse. He knows he is about to be embarrassed by being recused and now he is trying to preempt
the Appellate court from recusing him and saving face by finally dismissing it. Attorney Sydney Powell lit a fire under his biased ass and the incredible star chamber he set up was going to be exposed. I still think Powell should lodge ethics charges against him with both the DC bar and the Federal Courts administrative body after this is over
Sullivan jumped the shark when he suggested to Sydney Powell, Flynn’s attorney, that it might make sense to wait until after the election to determine if Barr acted appropriately when a new AG was appointed if Biden won. That is when Powell filed the pending motion to disqualify as he tried to backtrack realizing his politization of the case was out of the bag and no way was he going to be able to explain that rationale to the appellate court
It would be curious to know what comes within the definition of “evidence in this case.” Since there was no trial, does that mean whatever material the FBI confronted Flynn with to induce him to plead guilty? It has never been entered into evidence in a court that I know of, unless by Sydney Powell after she pried it out of the Flynn’s first attorneys. Sullivan denied the Defense request for a wide array of Brady material. There were a few documents unearthed by a US Attorney that made it into evidence during the late sentencing phase. Perhaps the DoJ should say they certify anything from that source, and can’t certify anything prior, since Brian Van Gracken seemed to have lacked candor. Please hold him in contempt and refer him for disbarment.
The Deep State judge continues to stall this case issuing non-sensical orders. Begone Rat Sullivan!
I don’t see how the prosecution or defence could ever certify such a thing. It raises the standard from beyond a reasonable doubt to a certainty. Even a full confession doesn’t meet that standard.
And what happens if DOJ does NOT certify by Monday.
You mean certify the evidence as correctly false?
The government (DOJ) has already told the Court and the Attorney General that the entire case was a fraud, without merit. For that reason, the DOJ has determined that they will not pursue this prosection and have requested the leave of the Courts to dismiss the case. Nothing in this case can be trusted, it was a frame up. Sullivan knows that, what he wants to proceed with himself in the role of the prosecutor. Of course, he cannot do that, the Constitution has said that such a thing is a no no.
His Democrat masters told him to delay this case until after the election and this is just the latest rabbit that he has pulled out of his hat (more likely, his ass).
Can they certify this hack Judge as crazy?
When the DOJ submitted its motion to dismiss, the signature of the DOJ Attorney is a certification that the facts listed in the motion are true and accurate. There is no need for another certification.
If this slimy judge is not impeached there is truly no justice in America.
