Tom works hard to tell people that he's an independent, which is a tough sell considering we can see his mouth wrapped firmly around the left's junk.

The attorney that the Sullivan appointed not only wrote a WaPo piece two days ago about how FLynn should be sentenced and destroyed, he also works for the firm that represents Sally Yates. SO one of the bad actors who railroaded Flynn will get to have their own counsel attempt to finish the job on Flynn. Yea, nothing unethical about that. I mean, if you are going to go rogue, go full out. Sullivan has become completely unhinged.

This judge probably deserves sanctions. This is really wrong.

I’d love to see who he and his office have received calls and emails from around DC the past couple weeks. He’s become a political operative.

Sullivan has a window-of-time — probably about 3-4 weeks — to clean up his mess. If he takes any more direct actions against Flynn, I suspect you’ll see the D.C. Court of Appeals step in and either give him some very precise instructions, or just take the case away from him and assign it to another judge.

Note: the D.C. Court of Appeals is currently comprised of 7 Clinton/Obama judges and 4 Bush/Trump judges. But if they have to step in and deal with this, none of that will matter. Sullivan’s on thin ice here.

Sullivan is starting to look like a MLB home plate ump who not only is a lifelong season ticket holder of the home team but a guy who has a wager on the game as well.

The mere appearance of such impropriety should be cause for alarm. If courts can set the precedent that they can rely upon amicus briefs to influence criminal case outcomes that they have a rooting interest in, calling it a Kangaroo Court would not fully suffice.

And I work hard telling your ignorant troll ass that I'm a liberal who sides mostly with democrats because they are closest to my views, but that I do not belong to the party as I loathe political parties which I blame for the majority of the divide an animus in this country. But you're clearly to ignorant to understand this.

And since you are obviously not aware, being independent of a party affiliation (Independent Voter) and being independent in your political views are two very distinct things. For example, Angus King is an independent Senator from Maine. But he's basically a liberal and caucuses with the Democrats. Bernie was the same way until he joined the Democrat Party.

And I'd assert that you'd be hard pressed to find many people who are truly independent in their political views, but don't let that stop your ignorance.

Now proceed to go back to your troll ethos and tell me that I don't know what an insurance deductible is or that I disappear from threads...or take vacations...or fake illnesses. It's about the only thing you can seem to master. Sad.

Don't think this has been posted, at least not in this thread. McCarthy blisterss Sullivan.

"...What was surprising—no, unbelievable—is what Judge Sullivan did on Wednesday: He entered an order “appoint[ing] The Honorable John Gleeson (Ret.) as amicus curiae to present arguments in opposition to the government’s Motion to Dismiss.”

This order was jaw-dropping for two reasons. First, the U.S. Constitution makes clear that the judiciary has no business second-guessing prosecutorial decisions. In fact, the very case Judge Sullivan cited for the proposition that he had the inherent authority to appoint an amicus curiae—United States v. Fokker—made clear Sullivan’s order was lawless...."

Yea, I don't really even know WTF is going on here.

Bringing in outside "opinions" for what?

The DOJ dropped the case and won't charge, the Prosecutor (likely dirty) dropped out, what's the problem here? Isn't this the same judge that coined the phrase "You don't want XXX to sing, I think you want them compose too"?

So he doesn't see that evident here also? They dropped it, is he just hanging onto the forced/coerced guilty pleas?
Guilty of what if there was no predicate in the opinion of the plaintiff (If I've used that correctly, dunno)

This is very odd, even for DeeCee...

Quote:The day has arrived. Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell has declassified who wanted to unmask Michael Flynn during the transition period, which was part of the scheme to ensnare him in a perjury trap set up by the FBI. Flynn had spoken with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. We know this because the call was leaked to the press. This was part of the long campaign of coordinated leaks to get the Russian collusion circus going. Reportedly, Obama gave marching orders for how he wanted the FBI’s probe to be protected once he left, preferably with the goal of preventing the incoming Trump administration from finding out about it. And based on these news documents, former President Obama, along with former Vice President Joe Biden, disgraced former FBI Director James Comey, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and former CIA Director John Brennan, all wanted Flynn’s name unmasked. Katie has more:

The list of Obama administration officials who requested the unmasking of General Michael Flynn during the transition period between the November 2016 election and President Donald Trump's January 20, 2017 inauguration has been released. Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell declassified the list late last week and it has been published by Senators Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson.

[...]

Here are some of them:

-Vice President Joe Bden - One request January 12, 2017

-FBI Director James Comey - One request December 15, 2016

-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper - Three requests

-CIA Director John Brennan - Two requests - December 14-15, 2016

-U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power - 7 requests

-Obama Chief of Staff Dennis McDonough - One request January 5, 2017

Yes, Obama appears to be a starting QB in fanning the flames of this heinous scheme within the DOJ. Besides Flynn, the Justice Department has spied on the Trump campaign, sending informants to glean information from campaign officials under false pretenses and then relaying that information to the third party. And all of this was due to one piece of biased political opposition research, the Trump dossier, which was compiled by an ex-British spy, Christopher Steele, and funded by the Democrats and the Clinton campaign. It was thoroughly debunked with reports from the Mueller probe and DOJ IG report on FISA abuses. The dossier was cited as credible evidence, despite never being verified, in securing a spy warrant against former Trump campaign official Carter Page. Given the breadth of this scheme, it’s no shocker I guess that Obama and his goons were in the driver’s seat. There were strong inclinations, as anything to the contrary would suggest an Obama executive that has truly gone rogue. Nope. We now have confirmation that yes, while the Obama executive went off the reservation, it was done on purpose.

The DOJ’s motion to dismiss the charges against Flynn showed that the FBI knew they had nothing on the former national security adviser. There was no evidence of collusion and the agents who interviewed him said they felt he didn’t lie to them. Still, Comey and his crew proceeded to railroad the man because by this point, the DOJ, now hopelessly political, needed a scalp. They were going to get Flynn no matter what. There a lot of dirty laundry being aired right now. Oh, and it gets worse, even with the Mueller probe definitely saying there was no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion, why did they continue this wild goose chase. It seems after Trump fired Comey in May of 2017, the DOJ needed to give some aura of legitimacy to their trainwreck Russia collusion probe, as Wall Street Journalist Kimberley Strassel aptly noted. We were taken for a ride and then Mueller decided to keep it going. And all the while even the most partisan, anti-Trump Democrats, like Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), already knew there was no evidence of collusion in their respective investigation. If they didn’t have anything, then Mueller sure as hell had nothing. It was a hoax. People’s lives were destroyed. And the American people are seeing the lengths at which the DOJ/FBI can ruin you and what happens when Democrats see their grip on power being lost. The tantrums they throw are rife with illegality and corruption. What else is new? And now, with Biden's name on the list, the Trump campaign has responded, asking it's time to get to the bottom of what Joe Biden knew about the plot to entrap Flynn. Brad Parscale, campaign manager for the Trump 2020 re-election campaign, wants answers:

Joe Biden’s limp claim that he doesn’t know anything about the railroading of Gen. Michael Flynn just got even more unbelievable. Biden is listed among the Obama administration officials who requested the unmasking of Flynn. We already knew Biden was briefed on the Flynn case before President Trump took office and now we know that he wanted Flynn unmasked. Americans have a right to know the depth of Biden’s involvement in the setup of Gen. Flynn to further the Russia collusion hoax.”

The judge is blatantly unconstitutional, the judicial branch does not decide who, what, and when to prosecute.
