Barr’s justice is doing things that have not been done for a long time.
Even when we had an R president.
Not perfect but I like him
Flynn said he lied to save his son’s backside, who, he was told, was going to be targeted for another generally ignored “crime” of lobbying for a foreign government without an official lobby certification. Here he says that he told the truth to the best of his ability. IOW, they construed a lie out of what he said, and his admission being necessary to the Mueller investigation’s reputation at the time, he agreed it was a lie in order to save his son. Noble, actually, on his part.
But, the government committed serious offenses in its investigation and sharing of materials with his defense. The only remedy, says his lawyer, is to throw out the entire case. That is the only remedy to kill his “deal” not to prosecute his son.
I wonder why Barr can’t just look at the case and drop it. These DOJ machinations totally puzzle me. Are the Flynn prosecutors NOT under the direction of Barr???
