My jury is still out, but there are arguments to be made on both sides.

The DOJ decision would appear to put an end to that process.
Earlier Thursday, the top prosecutor on the case, Brandon Van Grack, abruptly withdrew from the case, without explanation, in a brief filing with the court.
Breadcrumbs were being dropped in the days preceding the decision that his case could be reconsidered. Documents unsealed a week ago by the Justice Department revealed agents discussed their motivations for interviewing him in the Russia probe—questioning whether they wanted to“get him to lie” so he'd be fired or prosecuted, or get him to admit wrongdoing. Flynn allies howled over the revelations, arguing that he was essentially set up in a perjury trap. In that interview, Flynn did not admit wrongdoing and instead was accused of lying about his contacts with the then-Russian ambassador – to which he pleaded guilty.
Then on Wednesday, the DOJ released a mostly unredacted version of former acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s August 2017 “scope memo,” outlining the authority then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller had for his investigation. That document revealed for the first time that Mueller’s authority went significantly beyond what was previously known.
Rosenstein’s memo was known to have authorized Mueller to probe “any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump,” and “any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation,” and “any other matters within the scope of [obstruction of justice laws].”
But the new document made clear that Rosenstein authorized a deep-dive criminal probe into the Trump campaign that extended well beyond Russian interference efforts.
The memo revealed that Mueller was, among other things, looking into whether Flynn “committed a crime or crimes by engaging in conversations with Russian government officials during the period of the Trump transition.”

How in any world can you claim to be correct???
That quote is OUTSTANDING !
That’s the America I remember . . .
Wonderful news! Thank you, Lord.
Trump needs Sidney Powell on his team. She is excellent. She knows all about the corruption at the highest levels.
Many may be surprised when it comes out later (and it could be much later) that both Barr and Wray worked together to take the Deep State down.
I have also fallen temporarily on occasion for the “Kick Barr and Wray the F out!” only to realize I don’t have the actual facts to support such a screech
My jury is still out, but there are arguments to be made on both sides.
That's my view. And right now, with Flynn's good news, I think Barr has proven himself to be on the side of the good guys.
BottomFeedingRoyals, Atlanta, United StatesJerry Nadler is eating angrily over this.
Death to them is better.
Kill all fascists.
And nobody gives a care about the idiots who still believe that, they are either left wing commie dolts or lazy uninformed voters. They aren’t important at this time imho
I have also fallen temporarily on occasion for the “Kick Barr and Wray the F out!” only to realize I don’t have the actual facts to support such a screech
The facts are plain as day. Wray has been sitting on these the Flynn FIB docs for near 3 years. Barr has allowed Horowitz and now Durham to slow walk their administrative investigations. The proof is in the pudding as they say. Criminal Democrats free as birds. Trump supporters ruined and jailed.
Deep state loses.
Trump wins.
Hallelujah!
Judge Sullivan is NOT one of the good guys.
He should have thrown this out YEARS ago, and didn’t.
Gee, I didn’t know you were also claiming to be psychic. But I guess in the crowd you run with, people would be gullible enough to believe it.
Well, it’s pretty easy in this case. In fact, anyone who didn’t fall for the 4chan con artist like this was their first month being on the internet can also claim to be correct. It’s so easy a caveman could do it!
A pardon would look like an admission of guilt. This clears him and the implication of false arrest and Forced admission of guilt. This gives Flynn the opportunity to Sue the hell out of every body for Millions!
I don’t know the percentages, but there is the swamp side that is determined to take this country down to nothing and hurt everyone in the process.
There is the other side that want to keep out country... and we have to be as strong ... as determined... doing whatever it takes to save this union.. if we don’t use everything and every way possible... we can kiss this union good bye... the other swamp side is never ending and nothing is off limits to them.
If a gun was aimed at your child... would you first see what your rights were? or would do whatever had to.. to save that child..
we are in a war... we cannot let that side outwit us nor use our weaknesses ... we cannot afford weakness or acquiescence of any sort... the future of the whole world depends on the existence of the United States ... a strong nation.. evil waits in the wings .. if we give in.
The LORD’s timing is perfection. We may not see this, but HE has the big picture and RULES.
Thank GOD for the freedom given to Gen. Flynn today.
We pray JUSTICE soon will follow.
Please quit clogging up the thread with your flaccid comments and let us enjoy the BOOM!
