Appeals Court Orders Flynn Case To Be Dismissed | Hallie Jackson | MSNBC
If you’re rich and the government makes a mistake, you’re set free.
If you’re poor, you lose your freedom
Or worse, life
Poor people, not even guilty of the crimes with which they have been charged, are in prison right now because they pled out on the advice of overworked public defenders. They’re sitting ducks because of Covid-19, and because this administration doesn’t care. And Flynn walks as though he were a man morally entitled to be free.
– or worst, get murdered by our very own Police force! There really is two different Justice system in America. One for the rich, powerful & politically well connected & one for poor, struggling & disadvantaged Americans. SAD!
88Gibson LesPaul – IT MUST END in January 2021 or we’re ALL DOOMED!
Up next the election and William Barr have take it over the frist time in America history that the AG is in charge of the result of the election. God help us all
I like Generals who don’t commit treason.
Corruption in high places.
Who you tellin’? Without a doubt Barr has corrupted the Justice Dept. so much, I’m not sure how they’ll recover; even after Trump and his minions are expelled! He’s undermined the entire system by pointing fingers at the FBI, judges, and supposedly the liberal system! It doesn’t matter that he’s appointed more conservative judges than anyone in the history of the country with the help of McConnell, when they actually rule against him he loses his mind just a little but more each day! “Good luck people!” Normally I’d say time heals all wounds, but this is deep and it’ll take a generation to sort it all out! ;-(
There is no justice in America. The innocent will be punished, the guilty will go free.
The rich corrupt will always get away with it.
@Tutan Khamun so did melania trump and eric
@Gypsy Wolf it’s not a dictatorship, the most hit states are run by democrats, if it wasn’t for Trump’s help NY would be a disaster but he gets no credit but you know the truth you just don’t want to believe it so you create illusions to satisfy your hatred towards him
@dixie chicken you mean the DNC paying a foreign agent to dig dirt on their political rival?
@Linda Witt the guy had to sell his house to pay his attorney fees. Strzoks latest notes show this was a total set up.
The AG is an emBARRassment to the legal profession and should be disBARRed
The Durham report is next
Where’d this stellar reputation come from with Barr; even with others like Comey and Mueller? They’ll end up looking “weak as water” and won’t even be more consequential in the history books than “allowing” Trump to continue his reign of terror! ;-(
That is so cute. You are adorable.
Banana 🍌 republic
Exculpatory evidence withheld
He committed treason so now we have a banana republic .VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO .
He’s guilty of being a foreign agent without declaring it. He’s guilty of helping another power pervert out elections. But, as we’ve not been at war (officially) with the powers he worked with, it is not legally treason.
@Mario Lopez Trump did ask China for help, but that is not treason, nor is it Flynn’s crime.
What was treason?
@OnWingsOfHope yeah if the govt was found to have withheld evidence.
Uh they withheld evidence ….. case closed you complete morons
The Banana Republic
The Dukes of Hazard https://sfmkm.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_41.html
He also lied to the judge as he pleaded guilty. They can also get him for that
Could be the actions of a tin pot third world regime.
No
The changes against Flynn were actions of a tin pot third world regime.
😂😅🤣what a shithole country🤣😅
Still 39% voter will vote for Trump!!! what’s going on?
@Ted G Russian BOT
Helsinki July 16, 2018.
Trump: “My people came to me, Dan Coates came to me, and some others, they said they think it’s Russia, I have President Putin, he just said it’s not Russia . I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be. I have great confidence in my intelligence people, but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today.”
On Nov 10 2016, during a White House meeting 2 days after Trump’s election, President Obama warned Trump about Flynn, but Trump proceeded with hiring Flynn anyway. Longtime Trump confidant Chris Christie also directly advised Trump against hiring Flynn.
“If I were president-elect of the United States, I wouldn’t let General Flynn into the White House, let alone give him a job,” Christie said in 2017..
The reason why Trump ignored the warnings about Flynn and his Russian ties are because Trump is a Russian asset too. And he admitted to it in Helsinki.
Flynn’s lies to the FBI prompted the DoJ to warn Trump ONCE AGAIN about Flynn. On January 26, 2017, acting AG Sally Yates, personally informed the White House that Flynn lied to the FBI about his calls with Kislyak, and therefore was at risk of being blackmailed by Russia. But instead of immediately taking action against Flynn, Trump decided to reward Sally Yates for doing her job, and for her due diligence in warning him about Flynn, by firing her 3 days later. Let that sink in for a moment..
nice work of fiction
@Paul Wilson Are you speaking to me?
@Jordan Munk yes i am
Dee Pattison Yep: It absolutely was illegal! What Flynn did, on behalf of lsraeI, was 100% treason
Russian assets are busy on this thread.
Democracy just had a stroke!!!
The swamp is over flowing
Gary Weston
That’s not the swamp!
That’s sewage‼️
And just like the”Poop Train” that
Visits community to community,
it will be a long lasting stench‼️
its draining nicely…as promised, and justice is prevailing 🙂
Alisha Monique
Reminds me of
The fell that tried to sell me a rebuilt transmission
that was full of bananas, instead of the proper fluid.
Yo are so very,
Correct, many of the professionals are retiring.
However, they are brought back as Private contractors,
Consultants, Engineers, Foresters, and managers of all striped
Sites Closed down because there’s not enough inspectors
to keep the system running.
Meanwhile,
Fat tsunamis waits in the sewers, Ready to explode,
The sewage keeps on rising around the crockagator.
And we see all those little things floating upon the surface
Where they get fat, old, Dried out Cheatos and are
Now exploding with the most horrific stench.
Only to sink to the bottom clogging up the drain and the
Magnificent malignant one, a narcissistic Orange Cheato
Is dangling his feet in it.
Only to take a break to enjoy his Golden Showers with Tzar Putin.
WTF is going in our democracy ? The corruption literally makes my knees weak watching this.
@aweffs like what?
@Jordan Munk Lol, your era came and went a few decades ago
Jose Gibilisco unless, of course, if you golf with DJT, friend (who has dirt on him), or one of his Republican cronies! It’s disgusting to see! What happened to law & order in USA?
It’s horrible!!! 😁
Democracy? What democracy?
Isn’t the house supposed to have a panel today on Barr’s corruption of he DOJ? Woooooow.
LOL! It’s great to see how well the checks & balances are working in the US. What a joke! This is the best plutocracy that money can buy.
“Some improper steps ” – er no, suppression of exculpatory evidence.
If Flynn was innocent why did he confess multiple times including in court to Judge Sullivan? Lying to the FBI was a gift charge anyway since he more charges which could have been made.
This is America!!! Absolutely unbelievable!
Ah,
Just like the smell of napalm in the morning air,
There’s nothing quite like the stench of judicial corruptions.
Our system is so, unbelievably fraudulent‼️
Trash wins, as we’re all used to these days.
Truth hurts 😭😭😭😭😭
A 3 star general that served this country for over 30 years who was framed… You are calling an innocent man “trash” because of your political ideology. YOU ARE THE TRASH!
@Jordan Munk Flynn wasn’t framed; he fully admitted his guilt, so you’re not fooling anybody here. And, yeah, he IS trash.
@321snoot ur mother is trash
