Ex-judge urges court to sentence Michael Flynn despite DOJ bid to drop case
2020-06-11
[NYPOST] A former judge appointed to oppose the Justice Department’s request to drop its case against Michael Flynn urged sentencing to move ahead in a court filing Wednesday, arguing the government’s request to dismiss the case has only “pretextual” justification.

Ex-Judge John Gleeson said in a DC federal court filing that “[t]he facts surrounding the filing of the Government’s motion constitute clear evidence of gross prosecutorial abuse. They reveal an unconvincing effort to disguise as legitimate a decision to dismiss that is based solely on the fact that Flynn is a political ally of President Trump.”

#6  If Flynn should prevail in Court won't he hang himself, or maybe shoot himself in the back of the head?

#5  Surprised? Missed out the last 75 years of the court granting itself power and purview not under the Constitution. Life appointment means an aristocracy above the people. Got to have the secret handshake to enter.

#3  Flynn has a lot to say once out from under the looming threat of Sullivan But can we get past this national crises of racial terrorism dressed up as protests. If not, his voice will be drowned out by rage and violence.
