For once I agree with Nadler. I would love to see that hearing. Barr will crush them in any tête-à-tête.

Chuckle You just gotta laugh at the sheer nerve of Nadler and Schiff.
I am not even going to waste my time replying them.

Schiff is too lazy to read the filing and hopes everyone else is too.

One question—what about the motivation of the departing administration in dropping stink-bomb sanctions before leaving? That was an overtly political act designed to harm foreign relations with the new administration. It also helped set up the narrative that Trump colluded with the Russians, something they knew to be untrue. Obama must have been directly involved in the sanctions decision.

Dropping charges against Flynn is a gOod start but there’s a lot left to unpack.

Felony crimes were committed by the FBI, friend. Not misconduct.

“Flynn PLEADED GUILTY to lying to investigators,” Nadler also said on Twitter. “The evidence against him is overwhelming. Now, a politicized DOJ is dropping the case.”

Meanwhile, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, said the decision reflected “the worst politicization of the Justice Department in its history.”

The hypocrisy is just breathtaking, isn’t it? L...M...A...O.

I want to see Barr go to testify and then tell Nadler and Schiff that part of the explanation is that Nadler and Schiff will be prosecuted for conspiracy to obstruct the Executive Branch from performing its Constitutional responsibilities.

Nadler and Schiff are going to have more things to worry about (for themselves, and the part they played on the soft coup).

If there’s still justice in this nation, we’d see lots of people in jail. Soon.

Was surprised to hear Judge Napalatino praise the dismissal of the case. He even pointed out it was improperly predicated, and can NOT be relitigated!

The headline: This is RICH. They are expecting the MSM to go off on their (Nadler & Shiff) feigned “outrage” about this, and what a miscarriage of justice is being done.

This is laughable. But, I don’t doubt the MSM will be demanding impeachment of Barr and others, very soon.

Heh. The Nadler and Schiff reactions read like Babylon Bee.

They know the press will hide the contents of the Motion to Dismiss.

Let me trot-out the CYA statement used by every Democrat administration when a controversial decision about a prosecution gets made: The ultimate decision was made on the recommendation of “Career Prosecutors” (you’re not supposed to question the politics or objectivity of those guys/gals).

Bar shouldn't pull any punches when he explains why he dropped the case. Entrapment, frame up, lying fbi agents and lying defense counsel is just the tip of the iceberg. The General Flynn case was a disgrace from the beginning. Nadler and Schitt Face must be afraid that their criminal acts might be exposed soon.

Hey Nadless, invite AG. Barr over for a chat. He’ll eat your lunch for you. Again.

Dems are going to huff and puff today for their base but I guarantee you they do not want a deep dive into L’Affair Flynn. Flynn’s prosecution has served its purpose for the Deep State. They are on to other issues now. The Dems will quietly back away from the issue and the GOP Senate/DOJ/Judge Sullivan will note pursue FBI/DOJ criminality substantively.

Explanation: The DOJ (executive branch) has all authority to do as it pleases with regard to federal prosecutions.
