#3 ...he's not clueless. He's an authoritarian who wants more unchecked power in the state, using procedure to mask injustice.

#4 ^Actually, just like Sullivan, he knows perfectly well which side of his bread is buttered.

#6 leftists are already saying that after they capture the WH and consequently the DOJ, they can refile the case

#7  they can refile the case

Will they make all the revealed exculpatory evidence hidden again?

#8 Now, Flynn needs to sue his former Defense Atty's for Malpractice/Conflicts of Interest and the DOJ for malicious prosecution, especially Van Grack

#9 Flynn's lawyers also submitted a supplement to his agreeing with the government on dismissing his case. '

'Mr. Obama himself directed that 'the right people' investigate General Flynn,' according to the memo. According to the notes, Comey said said 'Flynn - Kislyak calls but appear legit.'

Next to 'VP' it states: 'Logan Act,' and 'I've been on the intel cmte for ten years and I never,' with no further notation.

'According to Strzok's notes, it appears that Vice President Biden personally raised the idea of the Logan Act. That became an admitted pretext to investigate General Flynn,' according to his lawyer's memo.

#10 Wilkins, an African American Harvard Law School graduate, asked whether dismissing Flynn’s case would mean that judges must also dismiss cases against police if prosecutors offer racist reasons.

Dunno what race has to do with Flynn's case but there it is.

#11 The left just loves legal precedent (stare decisis) except when they don't.

#13 Dunno what race has to do with Flynn's case but there it is.

Their rules are that race has everything to do with everything.

And I keep hearing righties like Kurt Schlichter bloviating about how we need to apply the left's rules to the left. So...

#15 It ain't over 'til it's over:

The decision on Wednesday can be appealed by Sullivan. Or another judge on the D.C. Circuit can call for a vote on whether the case should be reheard, in which case the decision will be vacated and a wider panel of judges will preside over it.

#17 In addition, go after their law licences for trying to frame Flynn.

#19 It's becoming more and more obvious that the biggest mistake this nation ever made was to allow the Democrat Party to continue to exist after the Civil War. They've been fighting to overturn the results ever since. Maybe it's time to correct the error.
