Hey thanks. Can you point me to the ongoing court order ? That would definitely seem to circumvent the weasel words in the plea deal.

I wonder how long it will take for Flynn to have his case heard? I hope that it will be expedited.....the judge will be on the hot seat....if he dismisses the charges, he will have indicted Mueller. If he does not dismiss the charges, he will a lot to explain.

My guess that as head of counter-intelligence he ran the cover for the CIA drug smuggling, gun running and human trafficking.

We need to see RNC ads on TV, all across the country. So much good and REAL news to report, about POTUS.

We have to counter the left/FakeNewsMedia.

RNC certainly has the $$ to produce and air these ads.

Arkancide vs witness protection. How do you opt for witness protection when the deep state knows where you are? Many in the know between a big rock and a very hard place.

Playing Texas hold ‘em with President Trump. The President is forcing them to go all in or turn. His security team is loyal while the deep state teams are all compromised. May God place a hedge of protection around our leaders and their families while they hold fast to the truth and the rule of law.

*** “Entirely a setup - completely a framing of an innocent person, to destroy them for political purposes” ***

I am not disagreeing at all ... The very same Excerpted words/sentences on paper and words in a long interrogation/interview can be reported (leaked) or recorded in writing that can mean entirely different things. (gasp, I am not good at this)
There are ways to say the same thing using different words and then there are ways to say the same thing to mean different things.
(My oldest Son is a Nationally Ranked Debater and it is like second nature for him to take any line and twist it into anything he wants you to believe it is and then twist it around to mean the exact opposite and then to anything in-between all the while quoting anything you say in defense, disagreement or agreement to fit the needs of his argument)

Truth is they were Bankrupting Flynn and Threatening his Family all the while dangling the carrot... They have unlimited funds, don’t need to sleep like an individual and also unlike an individual they can focus on ONE thing 24/7, leak and use the MSM to their advantage ... On and On
Flynn didn’t stand a chance.

McCabe's grudge against General Flynn dates back to 2014, when Flynn vouched for FBI Supervisory Special Agent Robyn Gritz in her EEOC action against the Bureau. From an April 2015 NPR report:

Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, who led the Defense Intelligence Agency, worked closely with Gritz to find terrorists overseas. He says it's a shame the FBI let go of someone with years of top national security experience.

"She was one of the really, to me, bright lights and shining stars early on that just kinda got it when it came to the kind of enemy that we were facing and the relationship that was necessary between law enforcement and the military ... and I just thought she was really a real pro," Flynn says.

Gritz, now 46 years old, had to sell her home and move in with her parents. The FBI yanked her security clearance, and she thinks they've been black balling her for jobs in the field. That's how she ended up selling makeup. She recently moved to a better paying position answering phones at a call center.

A June 2017 article in Circa links McCabe to Gritz's troubles:

Flynn’s intervention on behalf of Supervisory Special Agent Robyn Gritz was highly unusual, and included a letter in 2014 on his official Pentagon stationary, a public interview in 2015 supporting Gritz’s case and an offer to testify on her behalf. His offer put him as a hostile witness in a case against McCabe, who was soaring through the bureau’s leadership ranks.

The FBI sought to block Flynn’s support for the agent, asking a federal administrative law judge in May 2014 to keep Flynn and others from becoming a witness in her Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) case, memos obtained by Circa show.

The deputy director’s testimony provided some of the strongest evidence in the case of possible retaliation, because he admitted the FBI opened an internal investigation into Gritz’s personal conduct after learning the agent “had filed or intended to file” a sex discrimination complaint against her supervisors.

...

For nearly a decade, Gritz worked with the intelligence community to help successfully track down global terrorists or rescue Western hostages, and was even occasionally called upon to personally brief then-Director Robert Mueller on sensitive cases like the disappearance of a retired agent Robert Levinson inside Iran, memos show.

But her career took a sudden downward turn after she went to work under McCabe and his leadership team in 2012, resulting in her first negative rating after years of outstanding performance reviews. She filed an EEOC complain inside the FBI against a handful of bureau executives in 2012, alleging her career was being derailed by sexual discrimination.

General Flynn didn't get along all that well with the swamp rats. From an October 2016 article in Politico recounting Flynn's 2014 retirement at age 56 from the Defense Intelligence Agency (he was fired):

During the ceremony, Flynn would be extolled by Admiral Mike Rogers, the director of the National Security Agency, as “the best intelligence officer of the past 20 years.” But given the nature of the intelligence business that united them, many of the attendees also knew that Flynn’s retirement at age 56 was premature. A well-known maverick, Flynn had been asked to “shake things up” at the 17,000-person agency. He brought a more wartime mind-set and ethos to a sleepy Washington bureaucracy, until the bureaucracy pushed back and Flynn’s gung-ho style was deemed too “disruptive” for an administration determined to put the unpleasant memories of Iraq and Afghanistan in the rearview mirror.

It's really sad DJT was successfully pressured to fire him.

Strzok probably just lied about what was said, to set up Flynn.

No doubt with encouragement from Mueller or his goon Andrew Weissman.

At the time the Flynn controversy erupted, the word was that Flynn was "cooperative and truthful" in his FBI interview. But of course Mueller hadn't yet been appointed and didn't yet know how scarce defendants would prove to be.

“Fruit of a poisonous tree” theory. Convictions, not just pleas are overturned all the time.

If he has already made a plea deal, how can he get the charges dismissed?

It's called withdrawing a guilty plea.

I suspect the tactic works really well when the prosecutor is discredited, the charges are shown to be bogus, and the defendant is going to get pardoned anyway.

Because everything against him was purposely ginned up with illegal warrants and pure political agendas in an institution that requires blind adherence to the law....kind of like the cops up north who were arrested, and the perps let go, because they ginned up fake evidence to obtain a warrant illegally....

If he doesn’t get the charges dropped, he should withdraw his plea and go to court. Expose them all for the cabal they are!!!

Every person or any organization which has been found guilty of crimes because of an investigation by the FBI from Mueller to Comey to the present Smug Thugs will be asking to have the judgments against them dismissed.

“ Fruit of a poisonous tree” Using false affidavits nullifies any information gleaned .

thank you. this does seem to give Flynn cover to withdraw the guilty plea withoutr being hamstrung by its conditions

This is huge and I'm guessing Mueller doesn't need any of it.

Where doubt exists as to the usefulness of the evidence to the defendant, the government must resolve all such doubts in favor of full disclosure.
Accordingly, the Court, sua sponte, directs the government to produce to defendant in a timely manner – including during plea negotiations 1 – any evidence in its possession that is favorable to defendant and material either to defendant’s guilt or punishment. The government is further directed to produce all discoverable evidence in a readily usable form
