We are seeing good things in recent days and this news is especially welcome. Because of all the obvious questionable activities by biased Justice Department officials in the Michael Flynn case AG Barr has appointed someone outside the deep state loop to look into the questionable activities and decisions which led to the apparent mishandling of the Flynn case.

Michael Flynn: William Barr appoints outside prosecutor to review Russia case
 
stooges gonna stooge.
 
Good. If the prosecutor is legit, he'll likely find that Flynn got a sweetheart deal to plead down to just lying to the FBI. Perhaps the charges against his son can be brought back up, send them both to prison for years.

Michael Flynn: William Barr appoints outside prosecutor to review Russia case

You're so naive that it absolutely takes my breath away. Do you understand the meaning of that, do you? The mission of the FBI is to protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States. There are thousands of men and women who took that oath to this nation. THOUSANDS of prosecutors and investigators that could do any type of investigation. They have THOUSANDS of resources that cross nations and span continents.

Think about this with a logical mind. Why would Attorney General William Barr have any need to go 'outside' the department in order to do any investigation? The professionals, THOUSANDS of them, are at his disposal. Here's a clue. Because the 'outside' prosecutor did not take an oath to the United States. It's because the 'outside' prosecutor will do what William Barr tells him to do. It's because the 'outside' prosecutor will do the bidding of Donald Trump and Bill Barr, not the United States and our constitution.

Actions such as this -- William Barr's attempt at brandishing power and usurping the powers of the Judicial Branch of government are blatant and should be obvious to any person with a logical mind. It's because of people like you marke, that the democracy of this country has been lost.

Seems as if the only people that think Flynn's case was handled improperly are Flynn's lawyers, Trump and Barr. This will go no where. Flynn needs to be disposed of promptly and sent off to prison.
 
This is merely another Bill "Roy Cohn" Barr attempt to serve his master at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue corrupt political wants.

Not a chance of that happening under Barr. He'll bury any conclusion that he finds inconvenient.

I agree with you entirely. The Justice Dept has been turned into a political weapon specifically for Trump to use to free his anti-American, criminal friends and prosecute his personal enemies. Bill Barr took a sledgehammer to the walls of the institution of the Justice Dept. Unfortunately there's no stopping them now, it's too late. The only two remedies under the U.S. Constitution to remove a rogue president is either impeachment, which won't work, and though the election process. The 2020 election will be the last chance American people will have to rid this country of this rogue president.
 
Barr is trying to dig his department out of the hole they've dug for themselves. Flynn is tied up in so many perjury knots, their only hope is to revive the old "perjury trap" excuse.

I see we have some supporters for a fellow who was working for a foreign government while joined with Trump. Very noble.

The bad thing is he let McCabe off the hook for lying.

The leftists want 9 years for Stone for less than that.

Left wing talking points. They like totalitarian regimes.

Don't be silly. Barr is not going to appoint a prosecutor from the swamp to investigate possible prosecutorial misconduct of members of the swamp. Barr is doing his job the right way and the legal way and for that democrat cultists want him impeached. That should surprise nobody who has been paying attention.

Your opinion does not harmonize with the opinions of tens of millions of Americans. The judge in the case has already indefinitely suspended sentencing. I think he knows he had better not dirty his hands in this unfolding fiasco as Barr turns his attention to the misconduct of justice department officials in the case.

Michael Flynn: William Barr appoints outside prosecutor to review Russia case

If the government (DOJ/FBI) acted properly then no one should oppose a special prosecutor to take a 2nd look at this case.
If they did not there should be accountability for those who acted in bad faith.

Michael Flynn is a tragic example of the greed that is rotting American democracy like an internal cancer.
In the process of writing a political/espionage novel, I did extensive research into America's Defense Intelligence Agency, a major intelligence agency component of the DoD.
In 2012, LT. General Michael Flynn served as the director of the DIA. He was in charge of 16,000 military and civilian employees worldwide.
In his role as DIA Director, Mr. Flynn, a graduate of West Point, was charged with informing national civilian and defense policy makers about the military intentions and capabilities
of foreign governments and non-state actors such as ISIS. Flynn was privy to the most sensitive national and international intelligence and briefed the Senate Armed Services Committee,
during the Senate's Worldwide Threat Assessment hearing. After leaving the Army, this world-class military intelligence leader chose to seek riches in the service of Donald Trump.
Mr. Flynn made a decision to become a shill for Trump's election.
Flynn turned his back on his career-long pledge to honor and defend the constitution of the United States from all enemies foreign and domestic when he sat with Putin at dinner parties and enjoyed his
meetings with his new found Kremlin friends. Tragically, one of America's military leaders chose to become a liar to gain Trump's favor.
The fact that this transformation from military hero to convicted felon seems OK with most Trump supporters and elected Republicans is proof that this rot has damaged America deeply.
Those of us who support truth and honesty are fighting the lies, corruption and ethical rot in order to save our nation from spiritual decadence.
 
And if he finds that Flynn got ****ed over, he isn't legit? :lamo

He won't unless he's being paid off by Barr.

The problem is Flynn lied.

Either he lied to the FBI about talking to the Russians or he lied when he allocuted his crimes to the judge. How do you get around that?

When a plea deal is made, both sides get something and both sides give something. For his part, Flynn agreed to cooperate with the DOJ and tell all he knew regarding the Russians and the transition. You can bet your ass that the DOJ got this out of Flynn BEFORE he was allowed to allocute his crimes before the judge. The DOJ in return agreed to drop other charges that Flynn could have been prosecuted for and to recommend a light sentence to the judge who would sentence Flynn.

When a defendant breaches a plea deal, EVERYTHING he gave the prosecutors prior to the breach is fair game, including everything Flynn said in allocution. It can all be used in court. All dropped charges can also be reinstated. If Flynn wants a trial now and gets one, the jury will hear his allocution, his detailed admission of guilt he made to the judge. If Flynn now claims he did not do the crimes, he will be charged with perjury because he was under oath when he lied to the judge. Perjury carries the same penalty of that of the original charges, whatever they are. DOJ prosecutors are not stupid. Plea deals are structured in such a way that clever defendants with sly lawyers cannot game the system.
 
If the government (DOJ/FBI) acted properly then no one should oppose a special prosecutor to take a 2nd look at this case.
If they did not there should be accountability for those who acted in bad faith.

The FBI had better find those missing notes which are critical to their case. If the 'lost' notes are not found. and it is almost inexcusable for those kinds of notes to be lost, the FBI will be found incompetent at the very least, if not criminally liable for doing Flynn wrong.
 
If the government (DOJ/FBI) acted properly then no one should oppose a special prosecutor to take a 2nd look at this case.
If they did not there should be accountability for those who acted in bad faith.

However, if this handpicked "special" prosecutor has been given his marching orders by Barr/Trump that he is expected to find that the DOJ acted improperly, then how does that serve justice? If you really want an objective review, you call for a congressional select committee, a completely bipartisan group to select a special prosecutor. It would be someone that both sides feel can be trusted and objective.

As it is right now, Trump's handpicked guy can be expected to conclude and make recommendations that are 100% in accordance with what Trump wants.

Of course, that is fine with Trump's base. Whatever Trump says goes.
 
The TrumpBarr mafia will be stopped in their tracks.

Ehhhh. I'm not so sure. Look at the Christians just on this board that are all in. If THAT group is okay with porn stars, corrupt charities and mafia tactics then Trunp has a good chance of winning again.

And it's all because of Mexicans. Let's just hope that Jesus hasn't come back and is attempting to cross the border into the current Rome (the United States).

Who wants him impeached? Have you got any documentation of that? It wouldn't do any good to impeach him anyway. Trump is the problem.
