The DOJ decision would appear to put an end to that process.
Earlier Thursday, the top prosecutor on the case, Brandon Van Grack, abruptly withdrew from the case, without explanation, in a brief filing with the court.
Breadcrumbs were being dropped in the days preceding the decision that his case could be reconsidered. Documents unsealed a week ago by the Justice Department revealed agents discussed their motivations for interviewing him in the Russia probequestioning whether they wanted toget him to lie so he'd be fired or prosecuted, or get him to admit wrongdoing. Flynn allies howled over the revelations, arguing that he was essentially set up in a perjury trap. In that interview, Flynn did not admit wrongdoing and instead was accused of lying about his contacts with the then-Russian ambassador to which he pleaded guilty.
Then on Wednesday, the DOJ released a mostly unredacted version of former acting Attorney General Rod Rosensteins August 2017 scope memo, outlining the authority then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller had for his investigation. That document revealed for the first time that Muellers authority went significantly beyond what was previously known.
Rosensteins memo was known to have authorized Mueller to probe any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump, and any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation, and any other matters within the scope of [obstruction of justice laws].
But the new document made clear that Rosenstein authorized a deep-dive criminal probe into the Trump campaign that extended well beyond Russian interference efforts.
The memo revealed that Mueller was, among other things, looking into whether Flynn committed a crime or crimes by engaging in conversations with Russian government officials during the period of the Trump transition.

Thanks Albion Wilde.
Time to put the noose around Hitlery's neck, and Mueller's, and Rosenstein's, and Obama's.
Or alternate theory:
He intentionally plead guilty to force the release of incriminating evidence against the derps, as we saw yesterday and will see again tomorrow.
How do you get evidence into the legal system and the public domain?
Thanks for the thread, and all you do here. However its a damn shame to see all these Qookie people launch out of the woodwork as if their Messiah had anything to do with it. I guess JimRob needs their donations but many rational people are being driven away lowering the value of the site, Feel free to reply privately if you have any ideas. Thanks.
Thanks for your insightful comments, despite the juvenile nature of this thread.
Is there any merit to the claims that Flynns lawyers withheld exculpatory evidence from him, and the court? If true, wouldnt he have a legitimate claim to false representation, and at least recoup the fees they charged, if not damages? Sorry I dont have a documented reference, but the MSM basically refuses to print any such information. Thanks again,
Ah, the head Qook himself. Like the master of deceit, glowingly proud of the carnage he hath wrought here. And still looking to bring more.
Hi bagster can you please explain to the rest of us what the hell Golden Eagle is talking about with the our messiah comment THANK YOU
Gave up on the mods deleting my post and finally decided to reply eh.
Keep your Qookiness in your little designated litterbox and well get along much better.
Mods? I didn't respond for a while because you aren't as important as you think.
Keep your Qookiness in your little designated litterbox and well get along much better.
What makes you think I wanna get along with you?
You come up with the craziest theories.
“I dont wish folks to choose hell via suicide.”
I think the demons within them have already established where they’ll spend eternity. They still have time to accept Christ as their Savior. Even if they did, they’d still need to pay the same price all traitors are supposed to pay, in which case their final destination would not be Hell.
Bottom line: They need to die for their crimes.
Well put.
I’d still agree also with their paying for their crimes regardless.

Good question.
Yep - if the “Pardon Flynn now” folks had gotten their way, nothing would have been as good as it’s gonna be...but they won’t learn a damn thing from being so impatient and ... wrong.
Oh BS. If Flynn was pardoned then the court docs would have been unsealed. Same same.
Amen, my brother/sister in Christ!
He didn't have Sidney Powell two years ago; he had the crooks who helped the persecution instead of defending him.
You are very welcome!! This is the best news for quite some time!
