    What is up with the Witch Hunt?

    Anything Flynn has that they want, would have been given MONTHS AGO.

    Trying to CONCEAL the facts of the case, or find some way to MITIGATE THEM, maybe?

    Such as withholding exculpatory evidence, maybe?

    Mueller seeks to push back Flynn sentencing again


    Special counsel Robert Mueller on Tuesday sought to postpone a sentencing hearing for President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn.

    “Due to the status of the investigation, the Special Counsel’s Office does not believe that this matter is ready to be scheduled for a sentencing hearing at this time,” Mueller’s team wrote in a joint court filing with Flynn’s defense team.

    The court asked for an update on a sentencing timeline for Flynn by Aug. 24, but the parties asked for that date to be pushed back to Sept. 17. Mueller’s team previously asked for a delay in sentencing at the end of June.



    ~Tuesday’s filing indicates that Mueller’s team could believe Flynn has more information that is useful to the investigation, or that sentencing hearings might reveal parts of the investigation that Mueller would like to keep under wraps.

    Makes sense. Trump seems to hire a LOT of felons. Gotta play it smart.
    Btw: yes Flynn’s still an admitted felon lol

    Or he is still SCRAMBLING to meet Sullivan's PRE-SENTENCING demand of all evidence involved.

    Yet, it seems that's exactly what's happening. I'd love for the request to be denied. It's a lying charge, not a complicated one to prove or disprove or lay the grounds for sentencing.

    The reason is explained in the OP.
    I believe Flynn’s lawyers are signing off on this.

    Maybe Mueller is a little short staffed?? After yesterday, I don't think he could find more then 2 or 3 thousand volunteers willing to jump in on this fun...
