Justice Department dropping the case against Michael Flynn.

The Dirty Donald and Barr Barr Black sheep led U.S.Justice Department is announcing they are dropping the case against Michael Flynn. An unprecedented action in a case where the defendant plead guilty to lying to government prosecutors and actually temporarily cooperated with the government. The fix was in.

 

Certainly not unprecedented when evidence comes to light that a rogue Mueller holdover stooge was withholding evidence and committed a fraud on the Court.

“The Government has concluded that the interview of Mr. Flynn was untethered to, and unjustified by, the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation into Mr. Flynn — a no longer justifiably predicated investigation that the FBI had, in the Bureau’s own words, prepared to close because it had yielded an ‘absence of any derogatory information,’ ” the filing said.

“The Government is not persuaded that the January 24, 2017 interview was conducted with a legitimate investigative basis and therefore does not believe Mr. Flynn’s statements were material even if untrue. Moreover, we not believe that the Government can prove either the relevant false statements or their materiality beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Timothy Shea, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, said in the filing that although Flynn had pleaded guilty to making false statements, ”“in the Government’s assessment, however, he did so without full awareness of the circumstances of the newly discovered, disclosed, or declassified information as to the FBI’s investigation of him.”

"But Van Grack's removal came just days after Fox News reported that explosive, newly unsealed evidence documenting the FBI's efforts to target Flynn -- including a top official's handwritten memo debating whether the FBI's "goal" was "to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired" -- called into question whether Van Grack complied with a court order to produce favorable evidence to Flynn."

"What Van Grack didn’t inform the court about – and didn’t provide to Flynn – was the newly unsealed January 4, 2017 "Closing Communication" from the FBI Washington Field Office, which recommended the FBI close its investigation of Flynn, as its exhaustive search through government databases “did not yield any information on which to predicate further investigative efforts."

an Grack also failed to provide evidence to Flynn’s attorneys that anti-Trump former FBI agent Peter Strzok then immediately intervened and instructed the FBI case manager handling the Flynn investigation to keep the probe open, followed by indicators that the bureau would seek to investigate Flynn for possible violations of an obscure 18th century law known as the Logan Act -- which has never been utilized in a modern prosecution.

Another Strzok text mentions that the FBI’s "7th floor" – meaning FBI leadership – may have been involved in the decision to keep the Flynn case alive.

Instead, Van Grack characterized Flynn’s alleged false statements as critical to the FBI’s “legitimate and significant investigation into whether individuals associated with the campaign of then-candidate Donald J. Trump were coordinating with the Russian government in its activities to interfere with the 2016 presidential election.”

 

Well, that's the Fake News Take. Are you confused on the fact that Crooked Prosecutors are not allowed to lie and withhold evidence so that they can frame political opponents? I'm confused as to why you are not filled with a deep sense of shame.

Dirty Corrupt Prosecutor of ex-Trump aide Michael Flynn withdraws from case amid controversy over documents.

A former top prosecutor for Robert Mueller’s special counsel investigation abruptly withdrew from the case against retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.​

Brandon Van Grack, a special assistant U.S. attorney and the chief of the Foreign Agents Registration Act Unit at the Justice Department, submitted a notice of withdrawal to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Thursday. A reason for his withdrawal was not given.​

Van Grack leaves the case facing rising criticism from Flynn’s legal team and allies of President Trump, who believe he did not comply with the judge’s order to produce all evidence in the government’s possession “that is favorable to defendant and material either to defendant’s guilt or punishment.”​

Trump has said he is considering a pardon for his former national security adviser, and late last month, he said he would consider bringing Flynn back into his administration, noting he was “essentially exonerated.”​

In a sign that’s more ominous still for Dirty Vile Lying Scum Van Grack’s career, and the government’s case against Flynn, he’s reportedly also withdrawing from his other government cases.

 

The fix was in alright, but the newly obtained documentation prove it was the dem sympathizers and the corrupt people in the FBI, DOJ and Obama administration doing the fixing.
Flynn was financially destroyed, his life and career in shambles when he accepted a plea after they threatened to extend the case to attack his family.

Of course, that is OK with the left, because Flynn worked for Trump. That is the only proof they need to declare people criminals. Such people are AINO's- Americans In Name Only.
Devoid of character, integrity, honor, or moral compasses.

 

Now can he sue the feds?

 

And.... like every damn thing his admin did while he was the Preezy, Obama only just found out about the terrible things his administration was doing, when he saw it on the TV evening news, just like everyone else in America did.

Curious how no matter what anyone in America says or does, that Trump's critics don't like, Trump is just assumed to have been in on it, and probably planned it too.

Meanwhile, Obama gets away with simultaneously being brilliant, sharp and all knowing, and at the same time being a clueless, incurious boob, who never knew about anything going on around him.

 

He PLEAD GUILTY twice in front of two different FEDERAL JUDGES!!!

 

I knew a guy with a large complicated agricultural biz, with minerals, grain farming, cattle, land, etc- who was audited by the IRS. After two years, they gave up. I asked him what it cost him- he said nothing, they lost. And then I said but what did it cost you to win? Lawyers, accountants, lost time, etc? Answer.... About 200K. Sometimes people are just beaten down by the system, which has unlimited resources and can outlast and destroy anybody. I've paid more than double the amount of a lawsuit was to win it in court, on principle. You have to ask yourself why not only for the expense, but the time involved. The only answer IS principle. But if you run out of resources, how to you continue? The condition was that if Flynn copped a plea, they wouldn't extend the case onto his family. He took the hit to save them from the same persecution he was under.

If you think that Flynn accepted a plea out of guilt rather than protect his family from the abuse they promised if he didn't accept, then all I can say is that I hope you wind up in a similar position, so you can show us just how far your righteous character will go in sacrificing your family to defend it.

And in the meantime- read the reasons why Flynn's case has been dropped, and why with the new evidence he has grounds for suing for malicious prosecution.
Do you believe in malicious prosecutions for political reasons? It certainly seems the democrats in general do, they have been hard at it for almost 4 years without winning anything.

If you don't believe in justice for everybody- you don't believe in justice for anybody.

 

Yes. Through a corrupt agreement that was a fraud on the Court, they forced Flynn to plead guilty. Corrupt prosecutors can do this to anyone, even the NSA.

‘The Government has determined,’ the Court filing read, ‘pursuant to the Principles of Federal Prosecution and based on an extensive review and careful consideration of the circumstances, that continued prosecution of this case would not serve the interests of justice.’

The disgusting scum running the lawless FBI — Lying James Comey, and Dirty Peter Strzok, and former head of counterintelligence Bill Priestap, among others — pursued a vendetta against Flynn, manufacturing a bogus case against him in order, first, to destroy someone that Barack Obama and his intelligence operatives detested and, second, to pursue ‘Crossfire Hurricane’, the ‘umbrella’ investigation whose goal was to destroy Donald Trump.

They were pretty successful at the first job. They smeared Flynn, then they set him up, sending Dirty Peter Strzok and another agent to have a friendly chat with him at the White House which they weaponized into a bogus ‘you lied to the FBI’ charge. They got him fired from his position as NSA, bankrupted him through ‘the-process-is-the-punishment’ legal feels, and forced him to plead guilty to a felony by threatening his son with another bogus charge.

And I think the current administration and their owned justice department are letting a guilty man walk.

 

We'll flag this post. Obviously if you support the Obama Administration criminalizing politics, you support Trump doing the same.

The Evil Obama administration detested Flynn and targeted him with trumped-up charges that have fallen apart under scrutiny.​

Flynn is a retired Army lieutenant general, who made his mark on modern insurgent warfare by helping revolutionize the rapid dissemination of battlefield intelligence. He was promoted by Spying President Obama to lead the Defense Intelligence Agency. He is also a headstrong man who got himself on Obama’s bad side by questioning counterterrorism strategy, particularly the administration’s weakness on Iran. He was detested by Spying Obama political and national-security officials for calling them out on politicizing intelligence. The FBI was not a fan, least of all Deputy Director Lying Andy McCabe, because Flynn had supported an agent who claimed the Bureau had subjected her to sex discrimination.

After Spying Obama fired him from the DIA post, Flynn became an important Trump-campaign surrogate, which gave him a national media platform from which to rip Obama’s foreign policy. When Trump won the election, Spying Obama counseled him against tapping Flynn for a top administration job. Trump ignored the advice, naming Flynn his national-security advisor. Flynn worked on the Trump transition and incensed Spying Obama officials by lobbying against a U.N. resolution against Israel that the Spying Obama administration, in its profiles-in-courage style, orchestrated and then abstained from voting on. The collusion narrative notwithstanding, Russia rebuffed Trump’s entreaties on the Israel resolution.

Obama’s late-December imposition of sanctions on Russia got the attention of Sergey Kislyak, the Kremlin’s ambassador to the United States, just as the administration figured it would. Kislyak, who has a wide, bipartisan circle of Washington contacts, contacted Flynn, who, as a member of Trump’s transition team, was dealing with a variety of foreign counterparts.

FBI counterintelligence agents were eavesdropping on Kislyak’s discussion with Flynn; in consultation with “Obama advisers,” as The New York Times gently described them. The Times elaborated:

Obama officials asked the FBI if a quid pro quo had been discussed on the call, and the answer was no, according to one of the officials, who like others asked not to be named discussing delicate communications. The topic of sanctions came up, they were told, but there was no deal.​

Asked not to be named discussing delicate communications. That’s cute. The officials did not want to identify themselves because they were committing a felony: FISA intercepts are classified, and disclosing them to unauthorized people, including the media, is a serious crime.

 

The Flynn investigation was a vindictive farce: Even if there had been a substantive discussion of sanctions, there would have been no law violation. But there was no such discussion, just the mere mention of sanctions, prompting Flynn’s proper response: Don’t escalate. Second, the Flynn–Kislyak communication became the grist for an outrageous classified leak for which, to this day, no one has ever been prosecuted.

The Spying Obama administration took the position that Flynn’s conversation with Kislyak could be a criminal offense. This was absurd. There was no illegality in Flynn’s communications with officials of foreign governments. President Trump eventually dismissed Flynn as national-security adviser on February 13, 2017 (after only three weeks on the job), and Flynn was later prosecuted by Special Counsel Mueller.

January 12, 2017, The Washington Post’s David Ignatius published a felony leak from an unidentified “senior U.S. government official,” describing Flynn’s communications with Kislyak after Spying Obama announced the anti-Russia sanctions. Naturally, the classified leak was not the crime that interested the journalist. Ignatius instead focused on an imaginary crime — one that just happens to have been under consideration at that very time in the top tier of the Obama Justice Department: Flynn’s flouting of the Logan Act.

 

Deputy Attorney General Yates was theorizing that it might be possible to prosecute Flynn under this vestige of the John Adams administration (1797–1801), a dark time for free-speech rights. The statute purports to criminalize “any correspondence or intercourse” with agents of a foreign sovereign conducted “without authority of the United States” — an impossibly vague phrase that probably means permission from the executive branch. No court has had an opportunity to rule that the Logan Act is unconstitutional because, realizing its infirmity, the Justice Department never invokes it. In its 219-year history, the Logan Act has not resulted in a single conviction; indeed, there have been only two indictments, the last one in 1852.

The investigation of Flynn was so baseless that Spying Obama officials could not provide Congress with a coherent rationale for why FBI agents were dispatched to interview him as if he were a criminal suspect.

Not only was there no good legal reason to interview Flynn. There was no good factual reason. The Justice Department and the FBI already had a recording of the Flynn–Kislyak conversation. They knew what had been said — that’s why an intelligence official was able to leak to the Times that there had been no corrupt quid pro quo.

Nor was Flynn needed to interpret the call. When agents want a witness to explain unclear or coded parts of a recorded conversation, they play it for the witness and then ask, “What did this mean? What did that mean?” That’s not what happened in Flynn’s interview. Without the recording being played for him, he was instead asked to narrate from unaided memory what had been said four weeks earlier — an eternity for a busy official engaged in hundreds of conversations. This kind of interrogation makes sense only if the agents are hoping to nail him by finding inconsistencies. It’s called a perjury trap.

Because his son was threatened. Face it, once again the Obama era corrupt to the core upper level FBI hiearachy AND Mueller and company have been . . . busted and revealed to the nation as nothing more than thugs when you get right down to it.

 

This is the first time in U.S. history that the government has so blatantly interfered in the pursuit of justice,it sets a new all time low precedent.

 

The prosecution was corrupt. Having a problem with this makes one an evil bad person. This is not an opinion its an undeniable truth to any good person.

 

Because they were threatening to implicate his son if he didn't.

 

There are many people being released from death row because of then innocent project because of people with your apparent mindset.

The Obama admin withheld evidence...be glad the truth came out!

 

Do Democrats Really Want to Celebrate the FBI’s Heinous Abuses Against Mike Flynn?

Pelosi, Nadler and Schiff are havig a contest to see who can more stridently express outrage, but, all this pretend outrage is disgraceful because Flynn’s exoneration represents the restoration of justice, not the perversion of it.

​

As Jonathan Turley, a constitutional law professor at George Washington University, put it, then-FBI Director James

“Comey et al sought to create a crime in the absence of any evidence of criminal conduct. The case has now collapsed and represents one of the most ignoble moments for [Dirty Bob] Mueller. The Justice Department did the right thing in seeking this dismissal. The new evidence not only undermined the legitimacy of the prosecution but the Justice Department itself. For those blinded by this age of rage, the abuse has been ignored and even defended.”​

 

Called Justice
Demon Obama was behind it all along with the new KGB FBI that he destroyed
I hope Barr prosecutors these Lilliputians

 

Flynn is about the most honorable man in the USA
Imagine what a rogue FBI could do to you

 

Show me the evidence......not the mere allegation....that 'they threatened to extend the case to attack his family.'

 

Simple Google search yields many news stories.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/mike-flynn-s-son-subject-federal-russia-probe-n800741

WASHINGTON — Michael G. Flynn, the son of President Donald Trump's former national security adviser, is a subject of the federal investigation into Russian meddling in the presidential election and possible collusion between Moscow and the Trump campaign, according to four current and former government officials.

 

Yep, the fix WAS definitely in. Now, Flynn's life must be restored and the corrupt bastards, who engaged in this political persecution, must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Only then, will there be justice regarding this travesty..

 

The FBI owes him damages for sure and an apology..

Many here also owe him an apology..
