    Nope. I'm saying I can't assume that about Flynn. See why I insist that quoting is vital when you refer to something I write?

    BTW, to be perfectly clear, I am pretty sure that Flynn wasn't acting on his own and with no instructions from Trump. But we won't know until the redacted portions of Flynn's plea deal and the Mueller Report are released. And they should be if Trump pardon's Flynn. Because it will no longer be an ongoing investigation.

    It's not Sullivan's job to prosecute people, that's up to the DOJ. Stop trying to discuss and make assertions about a foreign judicial system you know nothing about.

    Why does he have to quote you speak for yourself man. It's an easy question yes or no or are you not sure and you may have said it, that Flynn lied to "protect criminal activity" by Trump. I'd like to know.

    The appropriate DA has said they are dropping the case, Sullivan has no power to start a prosecution or force one prosecutorial decisions are made at the DOJ not in the court.

    Sullivan doesn't need anything, the case has been dropped by the DOJ. He has the evidence of how his court was duped by the prosecutors and their prosecutorial misconduct. He certainly doesn't need to invited partisan groups to submit their attacks on Trump and Flynn nor to have an OBVIOUS partisan and bias'd judge hold some fake prosecution.

    Because I don't know what he's talking about. BTW, I think he can carry his own debate. I don't think he needs cheerleaders or any hand-holding.

    It's REAL simple did you say Flynn lied to "protect criminal activity" by Trump. Do you believe he did, you DO know what YOU think. I'd like to know.

    Flynn pled guilty.

    He admitted he was a criminal.

    Sullivan is going to rule against Flynn and Trump.

    Does 33 years of service put him above the Law somehow?

    He is not prosecuting anyone. He has been asked by Flynn to allow Flynn to recant a plea of guilty given to the Court. The US Law requires that the Judge examine all the circumstances before he allows that to happen and he may well not allow it to happen.

    I said what is on my posts. Nothing more, nothing less. You can scroll up and read them, if you're that interested.

    So... you ask me what I believe. The answer is yes. It is most definitely my belief that there were lies by Flynn intended to protect Trump. But we won't know for sure till the redacted portions of Flynn's testimony and of the Mueller report are revealed. Is that what all that was about? If you want to know what I believe, all you have to do is ask. You appear to like going around in circles.

    Oh... and you thought that that ends it! I see your mistake.

    Is that what they tell you in the echo-chamber? Alternate realities are hilarious!

    Why the dancing over a simple question did you say Flynn lied to "protect criminal activity" by Trump. Do you believe he did, you DO know what YOU think. I'd like to know. What cover up of what crime, if there were crimes in the Mueller report Congress would know about them Mueller would have told them. He did not.

    Why do you ask me what I said? If you're that interested, look it up!

    Either you or I would need to look it up. But you're the one that's interested. Not me.

    .
    What the hell ???? I just answered that question two posts above yours

    Was the font too small for you?

    Or is it that I blew out of the water some sort of "narrative" that you had prepared? And that's why now you act like you can't read?

    Then what's he doing? He hasn't been asked to do anything by sign the paper dismissing the case and the DOJ has requested, they have made the decision he should not be prosecuted.

    Too late. Flynn pleaded guilty. It is no longer in the hands of the DOJ. It is now with the Judge. As I posted previously, things should work in this order:

    1. Flynn seeks to have the plea recanted. He has done that.
    2. Judge decides whether he will allow the recanting.
    3. If he does not, sentencing follows.
    4. If he does, then:
    5. DOJ may withdraw the charges.
    6. If it does, Flynn walks.

    So when you said, "I assume he didn't lie to protect criminal activity by the President who pardoned him", the "HE" in that is Flynn? That wouldn't make sense, as he wasn't pardoned.

    Pardon him from what? The charges have been dropped.

    Surely you've read the transcript by now so do tell us, what in the transcript of the call even hinted anything your accusing Flynn or Trump of? Seriously, asking them not to retaliate, is that what bothers you?

    Judge Sullivan said everything we need to know about the call is in the mueller report and publicly known.

    I don't make predictions but so far, yours have been way off. But your point was that it's over because the DOJ dropped the cases. Looks like that went up in smoke.

    He had submitted one and now the charges have been dropped, the entire case has been dropped due to prosecutoral misconduct. Citizens are protected here against such abuses. The DOJ is not taking it back into court.
