#1 Nb Covington is Eric Holder's firm.

#2 Shanghaiing someone in D.C. generally has few if any consequences. Appears no one ever figured on a Sidney Powell turning up. I hope she drives it squarely up their fat FBI and intelligence community arses.

#3 I hope she doesn't take lonely walks in the evenings.

#5 Here's an idea, promote Gina Haspel to DNI and appoint an acquitted General Mike Flynn as her replacement at the Agency.

#7 /\ The 'Deep State' is not simply a fraternity of loosely associated, like minded globalists and pipe smoking academicians who share a flare for political intrigue.

#8 The damage they have done to not just our foreign policy but our democracy is incalculable.

They tried to overturn a presidential election. They are beyond the law-- they've captured the legal and law enforcement establishment itself. They're making the US into a banana republic.

#9 Covington & Burling LLP attorneys sold out their client.

#10 What JohnQC said - we're supposed to believe a top-flight law firm simply forgot about this stuff?

Maybe they had the Awan Bros doing their IT.

#13 #9 Covington & Burling LLP attorneys sold out their client.

Yep: down the river.

This was deliberate. A white-shoe Manhattan firm as stories as Covington doesn't make mistakes of this magnitude.

This smacks of Hillary's emails. Holder was probably involved...

#14 I hope LTG Flynn is exonerated and the case dismissed with prejudice. Once that happens I suspect he will recover the financial damages to his life in the civil suits that follow. What I also suspect is a searing, white hot anger to destroy the bastards who did this to him to keep him out of the NSC and Trumps ear. From his time at DIA he knew far too much about the Obama ValJar cabal and their crimes. I pray he guts the lot of them.

#15 The only remaining question is whether this was:
a) a wide-ranging conspiracy with multiple aware principals, or
b) a series of corrupt decisions by individuals, not working in concert but all following the local DC mores of corruption and self-aggrandizement.

If you voted for b) you need remedial current events 101.

#17 The timing of this disclosure suggests that some of these emails were to or from the prosecutors which presumably were revealed to exist by the disclosures to Powell from the other side.
If so, they were probably withheld to cooperate with the government agents involved, and were done so against the best interests of their client. This could be seriously bad for them.

#19 Let's see if anything comes from this. I'm betting nothing will happen based on events so far!
