The Justice Department recently opened an inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the FBI's interview of Michael Flynn while he was serving as President Donald Trump's national security adviser, according to two people familiar with the inquiry. Flynn pleaded guilty to giving false statements to the FBI during that interview, but recently asked to withdraw that plea, further delaying his sentencing. Aired on 2/14/2020.

Bill Barr Installs Outside Prosecutor To Review Case Against Michael Flynn | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Despite Barr’s continuing bald-faced, lying behavior, everything at DOJ is NOT “hunky-dory”.
I recall the judge asking Mueller’s prosecutors if they were sure they didn’t want to charge him with T R E A S O N!
Shelley Ross
While that has the ring of truth.
It remains that
The Donald is still impeached
And
Stone is still a Felon and
Flynn will always be known as a traitor‼️
When Trump is out of office, he’s just another citizen.
Michelle Neville well they owe the people some answers.
@agf1700
tRAMP WOULD BENEFIT THE MOST, BAA, VISITED, HIS PRISON WITHIN 24HRS BEFORE HE WAS SUICIDED, BY THAT PARDONED MURDEROUS SEAL.
EPSTEIN DESPISED tramp, BECAUSE OF HIS PREFERENCE FOR 13YR OLD CHILDREN,
AN ALWAYS SOUGHT THE COMPANY OF THE HIGHLY EDUCATED, MORE WORLDLY, AN SOPHISTICATED, CLINTONS,
HE DONATED A TOUCH OVER 1BILLION TO THE CLINTON FOUNDATION,
AN ALLOWED THEM FREE USE OF HIS
JET THAT TOOK THEM ALL OVER THE WORLD.
MY OPINION, WAS THE CLINTONS, WERE BLACKMAILING HIM,
THEY GOT HEAPS OUT OF HIM. ?????
Constituent A Hey Sheep, Carter Page=Innocent and now suing the DNC and Obama’s corrupt DOJ that illegally spied on an innocent American (but you and the leftist ACLU don’t care). General Flynn, who honorably served our country for 30 years, withdrew his guilty plea because Obama’s corrupt DOJ said if he didn’t plead guilty they were going after his son after bankrupting Flynn with lawyers fees (but you and the corrupt ACLU don’t really care about our servicemen). George Papadopolous was illegally set-up, spied on and entrapped by Obama’s corrupt DOJ and they got him on some bogus lie charge for which he served 1 week in jail rather than go bankrupt trying to fight the unlimited resources of the Feds (but you don’t really care about civil rights as long as it hurts Trump). You leftist brainwashed sheep are beyond pathetic! TRUMP 2020!!!
We are in a lawlessness time dictatorship calling wrong right liying covering up cheating scandal
@William H Still looking for a boyfriend william
@Ace1King1 You”ve just proved Alfreds point
@Ace1King1 Words to the wise perhaps but definitely not words from the wise
@Ace1King1 hahahahahaha
@Ace1King1 If thats a genuine letter then that makes 2 of you
So….review a case where he’s already been found guilty and hasn’t even been sentenced yet? Wow, I wonder how many regular people they’re doing this for. I’m gonna guess 0.
@My Own Private Idaho democrats are no different than republicans- both support corruption
@Karen Brock …there is a world of difference.
Every one of trumps buddies I’m sure.
@My Own Private Idaho corruption is corruption- when you have an acceptance for it you create Trump.
@Karen Brock …I am not saying there aren’t corrupt Democrats. But….don’t even try to equate the level of it in the 2 parties. It isn’t even close. And Democrats will punish wrongdoing of their own.
I am not a Democrat or Republican – but it is clear to me which party is a cult of corruption and which one is not.
Wow dropping the McCabe case and pulling this move on the same day. They aren’t even trying to hide anymore
@Printagic Online agreed wholeheartedly
Why hide? He has no check from congress, his poll numbers are better than ever, the Republican party is 100% behind him. He has can do whatever he wants.
yeah, do think it’s a hostage exchange or something? smh
ohnoitsthatguy
They dropped the McCabe case because they know they would have lost it.
They are pretending that out of the goodness of Trump and Barr’s heart, they did McCabe a favor when they actually did it to avoid losing in the courts.
When these guys do something out of the normal, always look for a selfish motive.
Trump really made the last three years long and hard for no reason. When he’s gone, years from now we will look back and wonder how we lived everyday life this close to a dictatorship.
His trial is over. Lock him up.
Done.
ummm… he was acquitted in said trial, sweaty.
gabor he pleaded guilty
Not talking about Trump, I’m talking about Flynn………sweaty.
Barr to Trump: “I got this Donald the fix is in, just don’t make it too obvious by tweeting about it.”
@Luke Laugh u r the product of a broken rubber!!
Rod Johnson Learn English. Are you an insecure, not terribly bright, 5 year old?
@B.J Cameron You poor gullible lemming.
@Rod Johnson you want facts? Here’s a fact…. The main difference between a garbanzo bean and a chick pea is that Orange Dips#!+ never had a garbanzo bean on his face
William “Cohen the second ” Barr, Trumps personal lawyer, Will change every sentence for his friends!
He can’t. No matter what he or Trump says, it’s entirely on the judge. That’s why it’s RIDICULOUSLY STUPID that Trump even tried it.
Mikael H …………. William ‘Roycohn’ Barr !
As long as Flynn remains in an active case the longer all the dirt involving this guy & the GOP camp & trump stays unaccessible to the public. Barr’s coverup.
This is a corrupt disgrace, and I’m sick of it!!
Flnn was caught double dealing while on house arrest and the judge yanked it…
How much lower will Trump and his Regime go, Every second there’s another breaking story we were Warned he was a Psychopath with Narcissistic behaviors ! 🙄
There is no bottom to the corruption.
How muchower. If they can get away with it they will make false charges against their enemies, prosecute them and inflict severe penalties. If no one stops him, Trump will go all the way to the bottom.
Let me guess on Flynn’s new lawyers. Dershowitz and Starr.
Title should say “Barr Installs Lackey To Undermine Flynn’s Sentencing For Corrupt Motives.”
Trump thought it was “very unfair”, so off we go again.
“The media, in my view — and I feel very strongly about this — is not the enemy of the people. We need a free media. That said, you have to be careful about what you are watching and reading, because the media has taken sides. So if you only watch Fox News, because it’s reinforcing what you believe, you are not an informed citizen.” — Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, Fox News, February 12, 2020
Obama warned trump not to use Flynn so of course he did.
Yeah, apparently he was pressured to lie, then admit that he lied.
“Outside Prosecutor” means NOTHING when it comes from the mouth of ANYONE connected with the Trump administrator!!
