This week's declassification of a memo written in January 2017 revealed that the Obama Administration Department of Justice and the FBI knew that Trump's National Security Advisor Gen. Michael Flynn was neither a liar nor a Russian agent. Nevertheless, this information was concealed and Flynn was persecuted by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team and coerced into agreeing to a false plea of "lying to the FBI."
Revelation of this exonerating evidence supports the recent DOJ decision to withdraw its prosecution of Flynn and dismiss the charges. However, trial Judge Emmet Sullivan is appealing the dismissal of charges to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. "At this point it doesn't matter whether the original charges against Gen. Flynn are true or false," Sullivan argues. "He agreed to plead guilty. Allowing him to withdraw that plea is akin to allowing a poker player who has folded to a bluff to try to replay the hand. He may regret his decision not to call the bluff, but he is not entitled to escape paying the price."
The Court of Appeals has given Judge Sullivan and the DOJ ten days to present written arguments of 3,900 words or less on why the case against Flynn should or shouldn't be dismissed.
In related news, the FBI says it won't release evidence related to Seth Rich's murder and Hillary Clinton's emails until after the November elections. Director Christopher Wray contended that "it would be unprofessional for our agency to provide information that might reflect poorly on one political party prior to voters going to the polls. In this regard, I am adhering to the behavior modeled by my predecessor James Comey when he derailed the prosecution of Hillary Clinton for illegal transmission of classified information over unsecure media prior to the 2016 elections."

.You mean O’Dumbo, The Corrupt knew all along ? The absolute WORST POTUS in American history. MORON !
A judge is supposed to be impartial. Judge Emmett Sullivan is anything but impartial. The DOJ has dropped all charges, meaning that there is nobody prosecuting him, but democrat Emmett Sullivan wants to become his prosecutor. When there is no charges against a man, how does a judge hold the man? General Flynn will be exonerated in the end, but democrat Emmett Sullivan wants to keep this going for it’s effect on the November 2020 election. He is a real slob.
People have this all wrong. They prosecuted him for lying when he said he was lying before the Court. They knew he wasn’t telling the truth because they had the transcripts but there he was signing documents that he lied. What a liar.
