I only believe 80% of what I see posted at that place.
But I’d like to know why the President hasn’t issued an executive order to the FBI commanding them to create and preserve an audiovisual recording of their interviews, like every other law enforcement agency in the civilized world.
The sworn oath of an FBI agent is worth nothing any more. Less than nothing, in fact, if there is a question as to whether or not the Deep State and Democratic Party might benefit from it.
Sullivan I think is stuck on the issue of Flynn’s guilty plea. Had Flynn made a plea of innocent, the Judge might have had more grounds to act against the wrongness of the prosecutors.
you are so right.
In the future, corruption will be defined
by “Judge” Sullivan and the utter seditious
evil he created by being IN
on this entire sedition - and ignoring
the fraud before the court.
Judge Sullivan = improriety on legs
Re # 13:
Flynn’s strategy was very simple and straightforward. Plead guilty to a minor offense, get a guarantee of no incarceration and no prosecution of his son, stop the stress of ongoing litigation and financial bleeding, get a pardon from the President.
His follow-up strategy has been legally incoherent and self-defeating. All the benefits he received by pleading guilty are gone, and all the perils are back, including the possibility of indictment on other charges.
And Powell’s publicity campaigns are only helping Powell to hide her disastrous representation. They are further hurting her client.

You have heard right.
Plead the 5th.
It is there to protect the innocent from the black booted thugs. And one thing for sure, if there is not evidence the FBI will create it.
“Attorney Sidney Powell joined Larry O’Conner on WMAL on Friday morning.”
In the very first sentence Larry O’Connor’s name is misspelled and his afternoon radio show is incorrectly referred to as a morning show.
Not very promising.
Judge Sullivan called Flynn a traitor on the first day of the day of trial. He took it back hours later after it was all over the news. But what was he thinking in the first place? The only rational reason would be that he has Trump derangement syndrome.
But Barr a fool for letting this continue. This trial over the length of time probably cost the government millions of dollars. The government should just concede and cut their losses. It’s a petty crime why spend millions. Go after real bad guys.

Editing = maliciously revised
Stand her against the wall and shoot her
She forfeited her right to live
Agreed. Judge Sullivan could have stopped this at any time. He could order the release of all the withheld information. He could order the production of Agent Pietka(?). He is fully on the DS side. Van Gracken and Weissman should be in prison.
True, however, I believe this is an extenuating case involving fraud, threats, lying, set up, etc. How many court cases have been changed from normal circumstances to give justice to an injustice done to a citizen.
If a defendant takes a plea deal and pleads guilty and goes to jail and later it is found there was fraud in the evidence does the case and charges not over-turned?
Yes totally agree.
How right you are.
In today's world, where every 4th grade student has a recording device, both audio as well as visual, that fbi agents doing interviews that can result in someone's freedom on the line, that they are still making up written reports of their recollection and their impressions of the guilt or innocence of the person being interviewed.
Remember, the fbi can lie to the person, but if that same person 'lies' to the fbi, they go to jail.
That I don’t know only that I’ve read and have been told that it is very rare and difficult to get a case over turned once a guilty plea was entered. I’ve read of some prisoners who were told to plea guilty by bad lawyers or pled guilty after falsely confessing to a crime after undue duress from cops without a lawyer present. They had their cases over turned, though some of them spent decades in prison first.
It might be harder for Trump to issue a pardon to Flynn in such a case though he could still do a commutation of sentence.
Agreed. An attorney’s first duty is to represent the interests of her client.
Back in about 1995-96 time frame two FBI agents dropped in on me unannounced. They were investigating the alleged theft of some crude oil in Missouri. All of our crude oli was produced in South-central Mississippi.
The particulars of the case aren’t important here. The behavior of the agents is: 1) they came unannounced, 2) they did not infer in any way that I or my company was suspected of anything, 3) therefore there was no mention of my rights, Mirando or otherwise, 4) neither agent took any notes during the interview, 5) there was never any indication that anything was being recorded, 6) they did not inform me that it was a crime (felony) to lie to a FBI agent (I was unaware of this fact), and 7)they completed their task and left. If either prepared a 302 it was done after the fact and was dependent totally on the agent’s memory unless they were recording the conversation.
I never heard anymore about the matter from anyone. I have often wondered how they can use anything anyone says against them that is contained in a 302 without the suspect having been read their Mirando Rights.
The FBI should be required to record every 302. This would eliminate any opportunity for the FBI to railroad people like Gen. Mike Flynn.
It would also keep the FBI agents honest. They would not be able to accuse someone of lying to them unless they can prove it.
General Flynn was stupid to talk with the FBI without legal council present - either his is the NSC legal council depending on what was being brought up by the FBI agents.
Sullivan is not stuck on “Flynn’s guilty plea”. Sullivan has admonished both sides. He knows if he releases the actually “exculpating evidence” the DS is cooked. The withdraw of a guilty plea is very common. It is now an excuse. The events with the FBI and Flynn are criminal. The lawyers for the DOJ are fully involved. The lawyers for Meuller’s Team are guilty as sin. Judge is hoping this goes away. For some reason he won’t dismiss. Either way Flynn needs all this information for his civil suit. should last another 5 to 7 years. Lawyers covering for lawyers.
Biden has the mind of a child. Probably all that’s left after all the deep state programming.
