Law prof Jonathan Turley calls Sullivan’s stunning move in Flynn case ‘discomforting’ and ‘unnerving’

[Billiejeens]

Fox News’ Judge Jeanine Pirro isn’t the only legal expert pushing back on U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan’s controversial decision to keep the case against former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn alive despite a request from the Department of Justice to drop it.

In tweets posted late Wednesday, legal scholar Jonathan Turley, a professor of George Washington University Law School who participated in the impeachments of both former President Bill Clinton and current President Donald Trump, described Sullivan’s moves as “increasingly discomforting” and “unnerving.”

Jeanine Box Of Whine is not a legal expert, not a judge.

And Rand Paul is actually not a doctor, either, even though he continues to call himself one.

And Trump is not a billionaire, either. In fact, he’s broke and in deep debt.

Turley is a hack who has been compromised. Did he take a trip overseas and maybe hire an escort that worked with the KGB? Highly likely.

Jeanine Pirro was only a judge for two years in Westchester County Court 30 years ago.

Seems you are on the wrong side of the facts, again.


A Republican, she was the first female judge elected in Westchester County, New York.

More libtard projection: Sullivan is the actual political hack who does his master's bidding. The only reason for not dismissing the case against Flynn is to provide cover for Obama's misdeeds.

What?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_University_School_of_Medicine#Notable_faculty_and_alumniSomebody needs to tell the Duke University School of Medicine that they need to update their records. They have mistakenly listed Rand Paul as a graduate.

Man, you are speculating like a motherfucker.

Pirro's a hack. Just stop.

Sullivan's a cranky old guy. Flynn swore under oath he was guilty. To let Flynn off now, Sullivan would have to say .... ok, it's ok you lied to me. I think it's unlikely for a Judge to do that.

It's not unheard of to get to withdraw a guilty plea if the govt didn't disclose exculpatory evidence, but that's not exactly what they didn't disclose. Rather not everyone in the FBI was on board with charging Flynn.

I think the best resolution would just be to sentence Flynn with no time to serve and let it fffing go.

Cases are tossed out all the time on technicalities because law enforcement did not have probable cause.
I had a DWI tossed out 20 years ago and the judge HAMMERED the cop and the prosecutor.

Was i guilty technically? Yup. Did they entrap me? Yup. Did the judge do the right thing? Yup

And to be clear he ripped me a new one as well but hearing him tear into them was worthwhile

Turley has become the Right's go-to legal wingnut.

Cuz everyone else views Billy the Bagman's unprecedented reversal on the Flynn case
‘discomforting’ and ‘unnerving.’

2,000 former DOJ, FBI officials call on Barr to resign over Michael Flynn case

Barr is using the Justice Department to further Trump's personal and political interests, the letter said.

[task0778]

From the OP:

First, he issued a highly “unusual” order Tuesday opening Flynn’s case up for outside comment from demonstrably partisan actors

A day later he appointed a retired Clinton-era judge with an apparent to ax to grind against Flynn to argue against the DOJ’s motion for his case to be dismissed.

He then directed retired New York federal judge John Gleeson “to recommend whether Flynn should face a criminal contempt charge for perjury — apparently for declaring under oath at two different court proceedings that he was guilty of lying to the FBI, before he reversed course in January and claimed he had never lied,” according to Politico.

It sure looks like this judge wants to screw Flynn over, any way he can. And appointing a biased judge to argue against dismissal is to me extraordinary. Did prosecutors coerce a plea deal out of Flynn by threatening his son? From what I've seen ever since Trump was elected, nothing is out of bounds for these guys, get Trump and his associates for ANYTHING seems to be the only goal. Not justice, not national security, just get Trump by any means possible no matter how unscrupulous.
