Sadly, if they had not sued, and won, months ago, this case would probably be over.


Sadly, the “Barr” DOJ assaulted General Flynn for over a year before deciding to dismiss the case. Many of Mueller’s thugs went back to their comfy perches in the “Barr” DOJ and continued their misconduct without any substantive reply from Bagpipe Bill.

if Flynn is freed the cabal including O & Joey will be exposed as Flynn’s know where all the skeletons are hidden for the moment

I keep hearing this said, but I have yet to hear anyone explain why Flynn can't expose what he knows right now. He could have done it even before the DOJ asked to drop the case, certainly can do it now without any fear of retribution. Sullivan can't do anything to him for exposing wrongdoing. so why must he wait until his case is final?

Barr ought to investigate Judge Sullivan for corruption.

A pardon indicates no such thing. If there is a miscarriage of justice, a pardon is a remedy and clears the person of any record.

Judges are now prosecutors.

How quaint.

Again with the fake “bigly” meme.

President Trump would never say something so ignorant sounding.

He says “Big League”.

Can someone explain that to me? I get that Flynn is consumed with the progress or lack thereof of the case, but, why can’t Flynn be talking to Ratcliffe NOW, while Sidney is handling the legal muck? If he knows where all the skeletons are, then why keep it in his head? As far as I know, there’s no ‘Flynn can’t talk to anyone in the government on unrelated stuff’.

My question is, why hasn’t he talked about that? Is he under a gag order?

My thought too. Maybe he is saving it all for his book.

So walk in day one and say, “The prosecution rests”. Have Flynn’s lawyer move for summary judgment as the DOJ has failed to prove its case and move on. If you need to waste everyone’s time......

I have never understood why Barr tried to dismiss an adjudicated case, rather than filing a motion to dismiss based on facts discovered subsequent to verdict . Someone please clarify.

It was Biden’s idea to charge Flynn.

And Biden has said his Justice Dept would pursue Flynn.

Sullivan wants to hold this over to Biden Justice Dept.

Racist Sullivan believed every wild conspiracy theory about Trump.


His family posts repeatedly how my they hate Flynn and Trump.

That was my thought exactly -what can Sullivan do now? He’s a judge not a prosecutor

Obviously Sullivan is not going to dismiss; he'll sentence Flynn to prison.

The mMerica/American-hating Democrat/Left Party must keep this going so Trump has to pardon Flynn on election eve.

“How do you get sentenced when the case was dropped by the prosecutor?”

And where the defendant withdrew his guilty plea.

This road can go a few different routes, but at the end of every route, Flynn is a free man.

Case won’t be dropped. Sullivan is going to give Flynn about 3 years for lying to the court.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

so declas showed 2-3 fibbers agreed that flynn did not lie? correct?

fibbers put pressure on flynn to plead in order to avoid his son being prosecuted, too.

so, the lie that judge sullivan is trying to punish general flynn for telling was when flynn said he was guilty by copping a plea to save his son?

The Swamp is planning on Biden Presidency, people.

Just like Kevin Clinesmith sentencing was moved to after the Election.

"That’s kinda how I see it. Sullivan can’t win in the end. He’s only going to look petty and partisan."

He already does. He's just digging himself a deeper hole he'll never get out of.
