Congress Criminal Referral Clinton, Comey, McCabe, Lynch, Strzok, and Page to DOJ

Maybe. I was gonna say Trump

As for nothing to lose, the Trump haters (both left and right) always assume the worst - and still haven’t gotten anything right the past 4 years.

I’ll let it play out and see what actually happens.

I don’t know anything about Bartiowhateverwhatever but would be a little surprised if Trump fed her that over somebody else whose name starts with H and rhymes with insanity.

She also married a Billionaires son. But I agree, the lady knows her stuff and is sharp as a tack.

Well, if Trump pardons him, that’s not a withdrawal of the plea.

If Trump orders DOJ to agree to withdraw the plea and the Judge allows it, I’ll still honor it. It’s technically covered even though it’s not in the spirit of what I said. It’ll be a lesson in precise language.

I don’t think a pardon will be necessary. Just my gut feeling

Tucker says one of the people who have seen the new documents handed over to @GenFlynn’s defense team said they have “never seen a clearer cut case of entrapment.”

I just want you to soak this in for a moment.

Basically the defense team said they have never seen a clearer cut case of entrapment.

Good movie.

As I recall that was a case of mistaken identity, not entrapment.

EXCLUSIVE: Dossier Author Christopher Steele Had Previously Undisclosed Meetings With Lawyers For DNC, Clinton Campaign

April 27, 2020

A lawyer representing the DNC and Clinton campaign provided Christopher Steele with information in 2016 regarding an alleged secret communications channel between the Trump Organization and a Russian bank, the former spy told a British court last month.

That now-debunked tip, from Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussmann, set off a chain of events that led to Steele publishing a Sept. 14, 2016 memo accusing the founders of the bank, Alfa Bank, of having “illicit” ties to Vladimir Putin. A week after Steele wrote that memo, he had another meeting with Sussmann’s colleague, Marc Elias.

Steele disclosed the previously unreported meetings with Sussmann and Elias during testimony in a defamation lawsuit filed against him by the Alfa Bank founders, according to a court transcript obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Steele’s testimony about Sussmann and Elias provides insight into how deeply involved the two lawyers were in the Trump investigation, and suggests they helped shape Steele’s investigation into possible Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Perkins Coie, Sussmann and Elias did not respond to requests for comment for this story.

Elias, who served as general counsel for the Clinton campaign, hired Fusion GPS in April 2016 to investigate Donald Trump. Fusion GPS in turn picked Steele, a former MI6 officer, in June 2016 to investigate Trump’s possible ties to Russia.

Steele would go on to produce 17 memos alleging that the Russian government had blackmail material on Trump, and that members of his campaign were conspiring with the Kremlin to influence the 2016 election.

Many of Steele’s most explosive allegations have been debunked in the 40 months since BuzzFeed News published the dossier. A Justice Department inspector general’s report said that Steele’s primary source of information disputed many of the allegations in the dossier. The IG report also said that the FBI and U.S. intelligence community received evidence in 2017 that Russian intelligence operatives may have fed disinformation to Steele.

The IG report also dealt a fatal blow to the Alfa Bank theory peddled by Sussmann.

Will Flynn be "exonerated" by the Court? Not a chance in hell. Will Trump pardon him or will Bill Barr force the prosecutors to drop the case? Probably. Will the red hats construe the latter as exoneration. Without a doubt they will.

“What is our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute [Flynn] or get him fired?”

The judge has to be involved in the decision to drop the case at this point. Pretty sure he can sentence based on the probation report and the defense arguments without further input from the government.

Flynn bears the burden on his motion to withdraw. So no need for the government to rebut that, either.

If the case were pretrial, Barr could dump it by just not putting on proof (although highly unlikely a judge would deny a motion to dismiss.)

Some judges will accept any agreed terms put before them. Others won’t. So small chance Barr orders it shut down and everybody from DOJ to the Judge goes along with it.

Smaller chance Flynn wins motion.

Best odds are still that Powell gins up so much indignation from the base that they beg Trump to pardon him after the motion is tossed and he is sentenced.

I will admit, the last two days had me slightly nervous. Feeling more confident today. (Somebody should add this to the record of **** to embarrass me with if I turn out to be wrong.)

JMO.
