This Michael Flynn case could backfire on Barr big time

WASHINGTON — The federal judge overseeing the case against President Trump’s former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn appointed a hard-charging former prosecutor and judge on Wednesday to oppose the Justice Department’s effort to drop the case and to explore a perjury charge against Mr. Flynn.
here is why

Well the judge decided to select a former Judge to state in his Court the
Reasons why Barr's efforts to release Michael Flynn should be revoked .

This Former Judge's task is to state legal reasons why Barr the Department
of Justice should not attempt to spring
Michael Flynn from jail .

My take is that the Judge in this case wants a Professional Legal Person to cite before his Court , reasons why Barr & the Justice Department are wrong in trying to Spring Flynn from jail .

I also believe that by doing this Trump , Barr and the Republicans , will be unable to factually state that this Former Judge is biased against Trump , Barr ; Flynn et al .

They would be unable to factually state that this former Judge is biased against Trump , Barr and the
Justice Department .

Obviously , if this former Judge produces a credible case in his role
of stating reasons why Flynn should be still in Jail , it is likely that
he can persuade the Judge , to put Flynn back in Jail .

My take is that this Hearing is going to be Televised Life on TV and also Radio . That being the case , Everyone will be able to have their opinion on the Case .

My take is that this is a brilliant move by the Judge , He has taken a person who to use an American expression :

" Has no Dog in this Fight !!!! ".

Well the Barr decision will get more scrutiny than they bargained for. Flynn plead guilty under oath and now he wants to withdraw his guilty plea. So if the judge follow Barr’s wishes and dismiss the case against Flynn, couldn’t the judge turn around and charge Flynn with perjury for lying to the court?

Not only that, the judge is allowing outsiders to file amicus briefs stating why charges should not be dropped, and over 2,000 former prosecutors, Republicans and Democrats have banded together to file such briefs.

We have not heard the end of this yet. Instead of getting better for Flynn, it seem they could get significantly worse…. Interesting conundrum

Yes I agree with everything You stated
in your second entry. What I find amazing , is the fact that Flynn was not coerced into pleading Guilty .

HE HIMSELF STATED THAT HE WAS GUILTY !!

What I believe people need to do is
not to be distracted by the machinations , and noise , of the Defenders of Flynn .

The fact is that The Republicans are
trying to distract the People in America , by coming up with a lot
Side Shows , to attempt distracting
People from seeing and seeking the Truth .

By appointing a retired Judge , in the Flynn Case , the Judge has taken the case to a higher level , and there can be no credible case made by
Trump and the Republicans regarding
partisanship .

My take is that the Judge by doing what he has done cannot be accused of
being biased or being a partisan in the case .

Now I believe that over 1,000 former
persons who worked in the Department of Justice , have written a letter stating emphatically that Flynn should still be in Jail .

Obviously this Trial is going to be Public , therefore the People in the
United States will themselves make a judgement regarding Michael Flynn .

You know what I find amazing, even though I shouldn’t – is the fact that all the FOX people who are proselytizing to let people go back to work ---- every one of them are broadcasting from home ---- let that sink in

That's just goes to show how dumb the MAGA MORONS are. Not even the blatant obvious hypocrisy get them to use a single brain cell. shock

The problem is their entire soma, including brain cells are programmed the same way – so they can’t respond any-other- way.

I am not sure if I am hoping for the backfire ----as Barr would say --- I don’t know – I am not that ideological – I just like equity ---justice --- the Flynn thing seem like double, double standard --- if he is not guilty then he should not be punished – if he is and his layers can get him off - I am fine with that --- it shouldn’t be the AG --- it just seem unjust

You are absolutely correct , they remain in the safety of their homes , while their Listeners are out there in
danger of getting the coronavirus .

My take is that You are stating that
Barr has metaphorically put his thumb on the Scales for Flynn .

 
carl0002 2020-05-16 00:36:27 

This could get interesting. There are now calls for release of the transcripts which DOJ has refused to release in the past. Even to the judge in the case. Barr released a whole set of documents last week that the judge had said they should not release. Yet he still refused to release the tapes and or transcripts of Flyns treachery. If the call for release of Transcripts gets loud enough. This could force DOJ's hand and if they are released and it becomes bare to all what Flynn was saying on those tapes, It could be detrimental to Flynn, Barr and Trump though nothing sticks to him as we know he would just lie his way into something else or start a war or something.
So this could become very interesting. Talk about backfiring. If those transcript are released the blowback on Barr and his cabal of corrupted lawyers will be devastating.

Backfire my rass. Trump team now has the ammunition to destroy Biden and Obama.

 
POINT 2020-05-16 13:27:07 

Knowing Trump if HE had any information
on former President Obama or Former Vice President , HE would have already released it .

Patience my friend. Trump is smart, the big story will be released closer to the election.

The Democrat nest of snakes in the previous administration are finally being forced into the light of day. Yes, the American people do deserve to know the facts, not least of which is Mr. Obama's and his cronies are corrupt, ruthless and greedy from the very top down.

enuff talk. print the facts and lock up Obama and his colleagues. justice doesnt get better close to elections you know.

and perhaps locking up those corrupt Obama officials and Obama himself could bring us closer to a vaccine.

This may turn out to be a classic case
of :

" OUT OF THE FRYING PAN INTO THE FIRE "

For Flynn ,the President and the Republican Party . I have absolutely no
doubt that this matter will still be
lingering when the General Elections
comes around .

Obviously it aint going to bode well for the President, Barr , and the Republican Party . The Democrats are
going to be very vocal about this
charade .
