The only problem here is that FISA warrants had no bearing on Flynn's case at all.

If the FBI was illegally spying, which it was, then it seems the whole thing could collapse.
Same agents acting.
Flynn would be in the two hop rule for the Carter Page warrants.
I think this is the larger problem for Flynn:
“On the issue of Mr. Strzok not believing at first that Flynn lied, Judge Sullivan said the retired general was apprised of this before he pleaded guilty.”
There’s plenty of evidence the FBI was up to no good, but that’s a big hurdle to overcome.
True, but any lying discovered by the FBI or DOJ during any of it, tosses the whole case.
Federal agents and other LEOs, that testify in federal court, have to go through a ‘Giglio’ questionnaire. If you “fail” the Giglio questionnaire, you’re not allowed to testify in federal court. Your testimony will not be considered truthful, no matter what. There are lots of federal agents that have been “Giglio’d” and are filling admin jobs until retirement since they’re not allowed to participate in any investigations.
If any of the people involved with Gen Flynn’s case can be shown to be lying, at any time, then any testimony any of them have EVER given can be called into question. To include any other cases that any of them were involved in. I”m wondering if any defense attorney’s are waiting to see how this all plays out and who is/was actually involved so they can ready appeals.
