During an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity Wednesday night Sidney Powell, a top attorney representing General Michael Flynn against the FBI, said explosive new documents showing agents framing her client are only the beginning.
"The documents I've seen so far in addition to the ones you have in your hands now are even more stunning. It's just absolutely appalling what these agents and then the Special Counsel operation did to General Flynn. It's abuse of their authority at every turn," Powell said. "These documents weren't easily discovered. The emails have been in the FBI the whole time but the handwritten notes, as I understand it, may not have been. We still do not know who the author of those is. They're devastating evidence of lengths they were willing to go to dsiregard all prior protocols, all prior rules, their standard practice in other cases to warn of 1001 violation. All of that. None of that applied to General Flynn. They only had special violations of every protocol known for him because they were determined to take him out."
"I can’t thank Attorney General Barr and Mr. Jensen and Mr. Durham enough for having the integrity and fortitude to get to the bottom of this because that’s what it takes," she continued.
Powell has asked U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan to vacate the case.
Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy broke down the new documents and said it's clear FBI agents put Flynn in a perjury trap.
"I think what we're seeing is a meticulously planned out scheme to try to get a 33-year combat veteran of the United States to say something inaccurate so that they'd have a basis to charge him with false statements or otherwise get him fired," McCarthy said. They did not have a legitimate investigative reason for doing this. There was no criminal predicate. There was no reason to treat him as a criminal suspect."
"For years a number of us have been arguing that this looked like a perjury trap. We're now seeing the paper trail start to catch up with what common sense has said for a longtime," he continued.
Explosive new FBI documents unsealed in Flynn case
And it all circles back to Comey and perhaps higher.

It wasn’t a rogue operation. Comey would never have done this on his own. That is simply not how DC works.
The higher ups know/approve but always operate under plausible deniability.
I think the judge here has been compromised.”
Without a doubt. He’s not as brazen as Berman but he’s deep state. He will find a way to shield the scumbags.
It is clear the corruption at the FBI is deep - not just at the top, or just at the bottom.
I guess that is true of any blue-state culture/organization.
oh let’s not fool ourselves, they were covering their theft of Americas wealth in the plans of self gratitude..That is why they are fighting, it is not just political, the fleecing of our money is infinite. So besides hanging them, remove all wealth from them..This occurs when the fed can raise money, cut it off, fund what we want, tell the world good, we will nuke you if it is war..draw the lines ,
BOTH parties cooperated to violate the Constitution.

True that. And influential GOP senator John McCain was certainly in on it. That’s why his pal Lindsey Graham won’t hold hearings.
Yeah, well this is the land of crooked courts and a jury pool that’s never heard of Nuremberg.
more like trillions in robbed from us and given to our enemies..
It’s not really a stupid opinion. The evidence and those memos which have already been in Barr’s hands is over the top evidence that he could have launched arrest raids. But instead the evidence is released.
A rookie district attorney wouldn’t do that. That tells us that there is probably no forthcoming arrest, and they’ve decided to just play it out in the court of public opinion
p
Exactly; follow the money. When trillions of dollars of graft are at stake, there are no limits to what these monsters will do.
How sad is that, the tribunal in Nuremberg was likely more honest than a Washington DC jury would be. I cannot disagree with you.
So did the author of these notes intentional write them to leave a paper trail and smoking gun?
This man and his family have been through much more than many of us can handle. I can’t even imagine.
That was a chilling interview. Government can, and will, do anything to protect turf.
Another great interview was this morning with the F&F panel and guest Jim Jordan. He’s always passionate about right and wrong, but today it was X10.
“And it all circles back to Comey and perhaps higher.”
Apparently brainstorming meeting related to this occurred in the Oval Office with Comey, Obama, Biden, et al. So your “perhaps higher” statement is true.
It’s truly a monument to Flynn’s character that he hasn’t strolled in the front door of the Hoover building one day with the AK-47.
How does Graham even sleep at night?
How? Dreaming of naked men and McCain is my guess.
I hope this bears fruit, but I am doubtful.
The swamp protects its own.
Dammit.
Sidney Powell is awesome though - and she has beaten the government before. So... maybe...
