Heard an interesting speculation . . . wouldn't it be grand if, once this Flynn trial stuff is dropped, Trump named him as the new FBI director?  >:D 

I too,  read Kim du Toit on the regular  >:D

Maybe one of the attorneys here can chime in because this sounds weird to layman me. The current judge in the Flynn case has hired an attorney to speak for him regarding his decisions in an ongoing case.

Linked in another thread, good questions asked by the presidents press secretary.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Handwritten notes from fired former FBI agent Peter Strzok show that Obama himself directed key aspects of the campaign to target Flynn during a Jan. 5, 2017 meeting in the Oval Office.

Now to sit back and watch the drama unfold the nothing happen. Or the Democrats will somehow turn this into Republicans racially pouncing.

Enough talk! When do the burnings at the stake begin? I've got some hot dogs on hold.

I mean we could riot and pull down statues of Marx, Lenin, and Obama. That's the cool thing to do right?

Should we burn some token suburbs first, or just go straight to burning Georgetown and Chevy Chase?

All the cool  kids are doing it :P

Burning at the stake as in when we start seeing people getting punished not literally burning things.. or people.

My bet is that the rogue judge will double down.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I guess Sullivan has 3 options.  Grant the dismissal, request a rehearing en banc, or appeal straight to SCOTUS. 

He's probably going to try to drag it out past January 4 in hopes of a Biden administration that will reinstate the persecution of Flynn.

The fact that he has yet to dismiss the case would seem to support your bet.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Given everything that's come out, my guess is that if it eventually goes in front of Diana and the rest of the Supremes it's not going to go the way the libs want it to.

Sullivan, particularly if he doubles down, but honestly even if not, should be impeached and removed and disbarred.

One would hope, but it's unlikely to happen.

Note that I said "should" not "will".  That was intentional.

If it gets to the SCOTUS, we may be surprised.  Given some of Robert's recent decisions, I wouldn't make book on a proper and constitutional ruling.
