RUSH: Look, folks, I know where you’re coming from, I know how frustrated you are, I know how you want heads to roll. I’m the same. This judge, Emmet Sullivan, what he’s trying to do to Flynn. I’ll tell you exactly what he’s trying to do to Flynn. He’s trying to prolong this and engineer this. You know, Flynn has pled guilty. Judge Sullivan is gonna pronounce sentence on that. He is gonna sentence him to jail because of Flynn’s guilty plea.
“But, Rush, but, Rush, he can’t do that, he can’t do this friend of the court amicus stuff because Supreme Court –” He’s gonna do whatever he wants. He’s gonna force a pardon from Trump. That’s what this is. He is not gonna let Flynn get away with the DOJ dropping the case. He’s gonna do everything they can to sentence Flynn based on Flynn’s original plea that he withdrew, that he had lied to the FBI.
Now, we know why Flynn entered the plea. They were ruining him and they were then promising to ruin his son, like they did to Manafort. Like they tried on Roger Stone. Like they tried to K.T. McFarland. But I think they’re trying to prolong this because some people even think that the judge, Emmet Sullivan, is trying to extend this case for months in the hope that Trump is not reelected, that a Democrat is elected, like Plugs. You gotta a new attorney general in there, you got effectively a new the Department of Justice and they withdraw their withdrawal of the case and they reimplement the case on Flynn.
These people — folks, I’m gonna tell you what is happening here – there are so many different ways to look at this, and there are a lot of people with theories, but I think somebody is scared to death what Michael Flynn knows. I don’t pretend to know what it is, don’t misunderstand. I think somebody is scared to death what Michael Flynn would say, might say, could say. I think there is an all-out effort to intimidate Flynn into just shutting up. Whatever goes down from here on forward, he stands mute, he says nothing. And I think these people that are scared to death of what he knows and what he might say are all stockpiled as former Obama administration officials.
We’ve never seen anything like this before, no matter who you talk to, with any experience whatsoever as a lawyer up to whatever level — DOJ, U.S. attorney’s office, federal judge, Supreme Court justice — nobody’s ever seen anything like this. Nobody has ever seen a judge openly thwart the Department of Justice and their desire to not prosecute a case and withdraw it and basically throw it away.
There’s partisan politics here as well. I’m sure there’s a lot of people fed up that Mueller came up empty. I’m sure there’s a lot of people ticked off that Andrew Weissmann came up empty. I’m sure that there are a lot of people in the Obama administration saying, “My God. We gave these guys unlimited money. We gave ’em the media. We gave ’em MI5. We gave ’em MI6, we gave ’em embeds, we gave ’em spies, we gave the FBI, we gave Comey everything they needed to nail Trump and they still couldn’t do it.”
I think they’re still ticked off that they couldn’t do this. You know who the most clean, pure, innocent guy in Washington has to be? Donald Trump. Donald Trump has been anal examed from every angle for three years and they haven’t found diddly-squat. And they are livid. Flynn is the epitome, having Flynn’s case, that was gonna be the big conviction or the big get is having Flynn plead guilty, have Flynn get sentenced, have Flynn go to jail, have Flynn wiped out as a message to anybody else in the Trump orbit, “This could be you.”
And then William Barr comes along and essentially says, “You guys have no case. There isn’t a case here. There never was a case.” Now everybody knows there was no collusion. The bottom has fallen out of everything Obama set up, including now we know that the director national intelligence Clapper and then Comey and Brennan were all testifying under oath. They never saw a shred of evidence regarding Trump and Russia collusion, despite the fact that they’re lying daily, multiple times a day for two to three years. And that is all known now.
They essentially tortured a confession out of Flynn. No, it wasn’t the sort of torture used by the Spanish Inquisition, or the KGB, but it was torture nonetheless ... psychological torture. It’s disgusting, and odious, and barbaric, and it has to end.
The Gulag Archipelago, in the USA.
I knew an elderly woman in Russia who had been a dancer; one night during Stalin’s purges the Cheka showed up, dragged her away, accused her of masterminding terror attacks. She replied that she had never done any such thing, knew nothing of such plots but they kept hammering her. Finally they responded, “we know its garbage, you know its garbage but we can go easier on you if you just sign this confession and admit it. She did so, got sent to the gulag but not Siberia and survived. Just how is this different from the way that Gen. Flynn has been treated by the FBI, Justice Dept. and now this “judge”?
Freepers other threads have said that Flynn is under a gag order, however once released by Sullivan, he is free to speak.
One story that is passed around (no way to rate the facts to it)....is that various things were done during the Obama period within the Intelligence community, and significant amounts of money went into the accounts of White House insiders. Flynn apparently knows of the deals and one of the things that he wanted to clean up (prior to his firing by Trump) was this.
Now, you could go and ask questions over Libya, all these weapons shipped out (going to Iraq and Syria for the civil war business), then ask about the Saudi money used to make the deals possible, and who got paid for ‘free’ weapons staged out of Libyan hands...handled by the CIA folks....and ending up in the hands of ISIS thugs.
...including the Stinger that brought down a CH-47 in Afghanistan that was traced to the CIA.
I want to see President Trump give General Michael Flynn the Medal of Freedom Award at the next SOTU in 2021.
And no one else knows? Only Flynn? Can't PDJT find out about things like this?
You have to remember that “Dirty Emmet” Sullivan delivered the 60th Senate vote for Obamacare with his dirty judging on the Ted Stevens prosecution.
Those ‘people’ may be powerful enough to insure that General Flynn will have an unfortunate encounter with an end-of-life scenario.
General Flynn, being a Marine, isn’t worried about his own security. However, we ALL ought to be worried about the information he could take to his grave.
General Flynn, if you haven’t done it already, get EVERYTHING you know about the recent treasons and seditions memorialized in a SAFE place.
PLEASE!!!
My gut feeling is Trump has the goodies already, Flynn is a hero going through all of this while at every turn we become more and more informed at just what our government is!! WE already knew but many independents are having a real eye opening education!!
Democrat politician and democrat media dismissing and approval of the unmasking of Flynn AND the entire russiagate hoax actually gives the Trump administration permission to launch a similar fake investigation on Biden, or whoever democrats nominate.
No one else seems to want to open up this Pandoras Box. If there was around 2-billion ‘gifted’ around and the White House insider ‘take’ was a quarter-billion, it might be curious to ask questions (money laundering, foreign accounts, etc).
You certainly can’t depend on the FBI, or Senator Lindsey Graham to stumble upon things like this.
And now they want to hold him in contempt for failing to withstand their pressure. It blows my mind. Charging someone for being entrapped is like running down a pedestrian in a cross walk and then suing them for damage to your car.
HOWEVER, Sullivan is delaying(stalling) the release of Flynn. (keep him from talking until after November).
... from a stockpile under the control of the SoS HDRC.
Flynn was actually Army. I wonder if the rat bastards want him to commit Arkancide?

If he knows something he should go ahead and leak, everyone else has in this case
