.
If the true administration of justice was to prevail in this case, the judge should simply accept the unopposed motion and this would be the end of the malicious prosecution. However, this case has so many precedents anything is possible.
If you are listening-in to the hearing, feel free to drop your thoughts and opinions into the comment section to share.
Montana 1924 – give me a break. He is lost
That was his first kiss at an 8th grade dance.
Gleeson still yacking away, doing noting to help himself or Sullivan.
it looks better to me now that gleeson has destroyed himself by lying. all looks good. big trump win tonight on top of it. it would be right to have a with prejudice ruling. but without is good enough to get flynn back into a position to damage these inauthentic bastards. the evidence of his guilt doesnt exist. to quote james brown , i feel good!
So did Sullivan throw Sidney off this call?
basic summary of what ive heard of this so far.
Gleeson STFU for a second – i havent heard Sidney at all. (the audio did drop)
https://twitter.com/reeveslawstl/status/1311007749560565761
Well, I believe Gleeson is not respecting the rule of law. He, as a former Judge, knows there is no precendent for his position in a criminal case.
Continuing on this idea, because the DOJ is part of the executive and it was the OBAMA DOJ/FBI that began this debacle, OBAMA is implicated.
Dismissal is an admission that OBAMA BAD.
Their entire contention is Obama was right in prosecuting, irrespective of the truth or facts.
Because Obama was right, anything to the contrary must be a conspiracy.
RATS are sick delusional psychopaths.
Now Gleason is arguing for Sullivan to taint the dismissal by expressing his disapproval.
So he saying Sullivan can follow the law but also do so with a statement of disapproval. Disgusting
….kinda reminds me of RGB’s “fervent dying wish” :-/
This seems more like a school play instead of a federal court hearing
A very bad school play
booger??
They would flunk the class.
this little BTCH! is saying if Flynn wants off the President can pardon him.
Go after his ass after this sidney!
(this punk then fumbles his papers and says im sorry judge – as someone is handing him the next line to read)
“someone is handing him” – some lawfare stooge.
that whole law firm needs to be RAIDED like Cohen.
A citizen who is not a party to this hearing has more speaking time than Flynn’’s lawyer. Judge – “Take you time”. What a shit show.
someone edit each of these examples – and condense it to a 30 second clip
How about 3 words?
Terrorism By Litigation
Gleason sounds like an idiot.
he sounds like a limp wristed girlie man.
Still in the closet.
What you are witnessing is an example of an insufferable evening with liberal academics and intellectuals. They won’t STFU and love to hear themselves speak so they can try and convince everyone that they are the smartest person in the room. OMFG, I hate them with a passion. I mean, Gleason has lost his thread and can’t remember what the F he was trying to say!
I say this as someone with multiple graduate degrees and graduated from a hoity toity Ivy League college with many of these types. Most of us outgrew this behavior – that’s why it is often characterized as “sophomoric”!
It’s like open mike night at the Asylum!
Reminds me of an old movie called King of Hearts.
You hit the nail on the head with that particular observation. I got piled higher and deeper with these so-called intellectuals and now describe myself as a, “recovering academic.’
I grew up very “blue collar”, so as I got deeper in the weeds with these types, my mantra became, “show me, don’t tell me”. They get so wrapped up in the power of their words, that they never get a damn thing of actual value done. Then they try and take credit for the results – after all, ANYONE can execute a GREAT IDEA. No accountability for anything. If it fails, it wasn’t a bad idea, it was just poor execution by the peons.
In government, they say, “There are no policy failures, only intelligence failures.” And the intel folks, by law, can’t talk about their work.
Why does John Gleeson get so much time to speak without interruption by Sullivan, yet Sidney Powell is not only given the briefest of time and on top of that continually interrupted by Sullivan? Do they not realize that all “people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment” and that before the just Judge of all mankind?
Sullivan hates Sidney Powell. He hates that she is smarter than him and that she calls out his corruption in public. Sullivan is dragging this case out for one reason: to publicly destroy any credibility Flynn has so that Flynn will not be believed when he becomes a witness against the Obama Administration. That is why they are trying so hard to take him down. It’s why Sullivan asked the DOJ if any dismissal should preclude a future AG/DOJ from re-indicting Flynn and re-trying this case. That was a threat to Flynn.
Take your time counsel when gleason talks but shut the hellup Sydney.
Because Sullivan is a misogynist!
Sydney is a white devil.
The DOJ did explain why it was was asking for dismissal…several times you idiot.
he is Mr. Paper Fumbler. and Mr “I’m sorry judge”
Noooooo..
Gleason just told us, it was Donald Trump interfering. SMH.
But Gleason knows the REAL reason: Orange Man Bad.
15 min recess for Court Reporter to take a break
I gotta pee
Apparently she can stifle her laughter anymore.
It would be nice to see reflection by the court on how the en-banc decision allowed him the opportunity to do the right thing and dismiss.
The leftists on that court are fine with his actions so far.
He is being paid commission based on;
1). How long he and Gleeson can talk and
2). How little time he provides the DOJ and Sidney
They are trying to bring up the Frank Woody case from 1924 which is pretty weird
https://www.theusconstitution.org/news/harmons-histories-case-against-michael-flynn-cites-missoula-pioneer-franklin-woody/
Now the Court Reporter needs a break. I can believe it. They want to drag this on forever. Wonder if the Court Reporter understood what a wordy day s/he was in for…
They are trying to claim that Flynn will be dismissed, not for lack of evidence/falsified FBI evidence, but because of the President’s influence
Shameless bunch
The court reporter may not actually be the “most important person in the courtroom” but its 50/50 she knows more about the law than the judge . . .
why the hell is the court reporter the most important person? and why are they stoppping for her as this IDIOT Gelezon fumbles with papers TWICE.
SIGNAL SIGNAL to stall (2;35 eastern time) check audio and make an article of this BS
The Reporter is a critical player.
The Reporter transcribes the official record, which is the fodder for all appellate review.
cool ty. i wish they would use what she records to rule with. and not just wing it!
I hope the reporter is typing ” Gleeson and Sullivan are bloviating corruptocrats who should be disbarred, in jail or worse.”
15 min recess for court reporter because Gleeson was being a windbag.
only bankruptcy judges have to have a law degree, i believe.
So Gleason says that it is all about Donald Trump protecting his wing man. He is basically denying everything that the DOJ just presented. I bet Sidney is seething…. ohhhhh
Yes there are two people suffering enormously in this — the court reporter whose hands are giving out, and Sidney who can hopefully keep her anger cold.
I know I’m struggling from a distance with the “cold anger” bit. This is so offensive
Imagine how Lt. Gen. Flynn must feel.
I imagine Sydney is seething and her head’s exploding
No.. her head will never explode… She has a titanium skull…. She is working feverishly to counter this bs… I just hope we get to hear from her…
This is just Corrupt Sullivan allowing more slander against political opponents Trump, Barr, Flynn, Powell, etc.
The more slander and libel he can get in the record, the more he damages Flynn’s reputation regardless of any criminal liability on Flynn’s part. And he spits out more vitriol against Trump just weeks before an election, in a pathetic attempt to influence that election. That is not Justice.
It’s full on activism in the court with Sullivan and Gleason. If I were Roberts I would be calling Sullivan about now.
Remember when Boasberg dropped a bomb on the Special Counsel propagating unsubstantiated claims?
This isn’t Boasberg conducting this whatever it is.
Can someone frame Gleeson asap? I’ve noticed that there is a certain mentality that just can’t get past a guilty plea and automatically assume guilt with no way to change their mind.
Here ya go
https://nypost.com/2020/05/14/old-op-ed-shows-where-judge-picked-to-oversee-flynn-case-stands/
None of these 3 letter gubt offices have INDEPENDENCE. I do not think you understand how our gubt works you idiot.
I can’t tell if Barr is playing his bagpipes or Gleason-Mouth is still talking. So much hot air.
This is what Barack Housein Obama did to our court systems. All of the judges he appointed are pure partisian marxist hacks. This is the legacy of Barack Housein Obama.
It could be remedied if Congress was worth spit.
I honestly don’t think Sullivan has been compromised, or is “in” on it. I believe Sullivan watches only CNN/MSNBC, reads Wapo/NYT, digests all their Lefty talking points, and he thinks think that Trump’s DOJ is now protecting Flynn at Trump’s behest. This judge is a crusader, and sees himself in the right, fighting a corrupt system.
The irony of it all…
It’s very possible. They all live in the MSM bubble.
I dunno. I read the “JohnHereToHelp” threads which suggest a fairly awful history.
Then here’s what Lucianne says, Sullivan arranged a $100,000 speech at Howard University? through Sullivan’s friend who runs Howard? Ugh
And Howard U. was given extra money through help for historically black colleges? Double Ugh
https://www.lucianne.com/2020/05/25/exclusive_judge_emmett_sullivan_from_brgeneral_flynn_trial_arranged_speaking_brgig_for_james_comey_at_howard_university_brfor_100000_34958.html
Original article was in Gateway Pundit by Jim Hoft.
Sullivan is in corruption up to his eyeballs. No excuses for this
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/05/exclusive-judge-emmett-sullivan-general-flynn-trial-arranged-speaking-gig-james-comey-howard-university-100000/
Interesting that they bring up the Missoula Montana 1924 corruption. Maybe they suspect this will come back to bite them in the rear — from the Gateway Pundit link:
“Judge Sullivan is a graduate of Howard University. He is friends with Howard University President Wayne Frederick who was involved with a misappropriation scam at the University in 2016, per CBS News:
“Howard University President Wayne Frederick said Wednesday that six people had been fired in Sept. 2017 for allegedly misappopriating funds, but questions still remain one day after an anonymous whistleblower said the financial aid office stole $1 million. A whistleblower named people accused of getting tuition benefits to cover the cost of taking classes while receiving grant money in a Medium post late Tuesday, which has since been removed.”
Ah, Kamala Harris attended Howard. Wonder if she learned how to steal from some experts
Here’s a former student speaking out about the corruption
If that is the case as you stated,
“Sullivan watches only CNN/MSNBC, reads Wapo/NYT, digests all their Lefty talking points, and he thinks think that Trump’s DOJ is now protecting Flynn at Trump’s behest.”
then Sullivan has low intellect, no deductive reasoning abilities nor intuition to be a judge…
Not his GD job… judges sposed to judge. and that is it. grrrrrrrrrrrrr
The more evil they go, the more certain is their defeat.
TRUMP LANDSLIDE
Esp. tonight’s debate w/O’Hiden want to take breaks every 30 minutes!!!!!
This is pure evil on Gleason’s part…he is not an attorney, he is a HACK!!! Sullivan is going to wish he had dismissed!!! Without dismissing Gen Flynn cannot sue anyone!!! Wonder if we can help on that end??? Since we were “DEPRIVED OF THIS MAN’S EXPERIENCE” in a gov position with knowledge wonder if we can sue???
Just spit-ballin’ here people!!!
How many times did Sullivan and Gleason meet in consultation.
Did Gleason’s appalling editorial in the ragsheet WaPo count more then tweets? Sidney should definitely address this inquiry.
Gleason stated on the record that they did not meet.
and I have a bridge for sale!!!
Gleason is the same douche that did a homerun trot over nailing John Gotti, using Sammy The Bull, who had committed 19 murders(one being his wife’s brother), a the star witness. Not defending John Gotti, but Gleason has always been a pos!
Judge Sullivan is a very sick man!
But I fear Justice John Roberts is his equal in every regard.
May God bless the President of the United States who, alone, from his high perch, battles against the shameful iniquities of the Obama Administration and all that it has birthed of evil and twisted behavior of the sort on display today in this hearing.
Sullivan solidified his standing
in the treasonous cabal today.
Gleeson is another corrupt coup actor. Can’t believe he’s given any time but this is not about justice and being fair….it’s to continue the coup.
This is all in prepreation for the house to file obstruction of justice charges against AG Barr and President Trump..
I noticeced ..Sullivan asked the questions about Powell contract with the president and the contents of the conversation… at that moment you could hear his voice change… this I believe was the true objective of the hearing…
I sense a heave presence of Lawfare and all the orchestrated questions…
Hans??
Yep, they will try, why else go there?
Bingo
Did anyone ever stop and think this charade was coordinated with the DNC to happen today (the same day as the debate). We are about to lose our country. jmo
if Wallace brings this up tonight, you’ll know for sure that it was coordinated.
Sidney must be spitting bullets after listening to Gleeson speak without interruption from the cheerleader sat on the bench.
She was extremely clear and concise in her statement/objections and telling Sullivan what motions she wanted entering into the record.
I especially loved her first point (made after the judge read his script verbatim), that she wanted all Gleeson’s statements and comments removing from the record, as Gleeson has no status within the proceedings!!
Really looking forward to the next sparring session she has with Judge “the one legged man in an arse kicking contest” Sullivan
Is Sydney Powell really the kind of person you would want to antagonize? She doesn’t get mad, she gets even. It ain’t over yet.
Sending deepest appreciation to Sydney Powell and prayers for her success
She certainly is not easily intimidated!
We’re at 3.5 hours, no break now.
A lefty-leaning lawyer says this is all designed to move it out past the election. I heard him give the DOJ guys a week to respond to Strzok’s claims that his emails were edited.
Ha ha ha… you mean like you did to every document that crossed your desk, you cheating liar.
No matter what else happens this hearing taking place now is a last ditch effort to put a counter-narrative up VS. the Muller nonsense, and so, one of the other I believe nothing will be decided before the election. Meaning, going into the vote Mueller more or less stands (in the eyes of the masses being fed a steady diet of blue pills)
What hasn’t happened is any effective OFFENSE from Team Trump / Barr / Durham / Sessions / Huber. What a joke.
Strzok should be in jail by now, that would be fair. That would make Gleesen’s arguments transparently wretched.
But, we never got any satisfaction from them. Remember when the Qtards at Free Republic were saying “nothing can stop what is coming” and ranting about 50,000 sealed indictments. None of that happened. Their Q God is a false idol and has let them down, and this is all we are left with, hoping for a fair ruling from a corrupt judge.
The time for putting up with this crap is coming to an end.
It’s often said if Gen. Flynn had stayed at the WH, he would have taken them down , well he is doing so anyway. The longer they go on, the more damming documents come out.
Little reasons to be thankful…
No Zoopzies: everyone muted for break time…
Will no one rid me of this meddlesome pest, Judge Sullivan, and put a lid on his campaign against General Flynn?
Did Powell have to answer Sullivan’s question about meeting with Trump? She started to refuse, then started to claim executive privilege, then just answered the question.
She realized the msm was going to spin her “secrets with the president” then gave an answer. A little better but they are going to kill her snyway.
We’re going into four hours.. how many democratic talking point were made….
How much corrupt evidence by the SCO will be mentioned by MSM… but at least it’s in the public court record..
MAGA
Sullivan going to dismiss without prejudice…use potential misconduct of sidney and barr as reason… if biden wins they might appoint a new sc to go after barr and sidney and anyody else who dared to challenge the cabal… dissent will not be tolerated.
Glee-son’s whole deal is to set the stage for some future hostile administration to go after Gen Flynn.
To use as their defense against O corruption charges
I agree.
Can Sydney then appeal to get it changed to dismiss with predjudice?
Yes. DOJ said that to dismiss without prejudice would be an abuse of judicial discretion, and it might even be DOJ taking the appeal.
Right now it is Sullivan, etc al v. DOJ and Flynn. Gleeson, representing Sullivan, refers to DOJ and Powell as his adversaries.
This sort of court is not at all unusual, and is not limited to federales.
Yes. But I doubt it would be a quick mandamus appeal. It would go the usual route, and end up being resolved in the next year. A Biden DOJ would oppose, which might not make a difference, given teh prosecutorial misconduct.
Sullivan is an example of the same kangaroo court the four police officers will have in the George Floyd Fentanyl overdose trial. They will not be allowed to bring in any evidence that contradicts the news media narrative that Floyd was the victim of police brutality!
hmmmm I’m not so sure the 8 Democraps on DC Circuit who voted to allow Sullivan to continue this circus really care so much…. but they do probably wish this whole thing were over.
https://twitter.com/reeveslawstl/status/1311000763443929089
This is exactly what the DC Circuit wanted to have happen. They know Sullivan’s point of view and aniumus, and they wanted to see it run full tilt.
Their court is just as bad as Sullivan’s, judging from oral argument there.
Remember
– Sen Rein nuked the Senate rules
– so the empty suit could stack the DC CCA
Judge Gleeson had a case in 2012 with a terrorist named Agron Hasbajrami. He sentenced this guy to 15 years for sending money to Paki terrorist. He allowed Hasbajrami to withdraw a guilty plea after sentencing. These 2 cases look very similar. Only difference was he used real evidence in 2012 and uses inferences and opinions now.
Anything about white privilege yet ?
its great to hear laughing during the break, during a trial a judge has screamed TREASON at the defendent.
I had to step away. What time is the court coming back after the break?
Coming back now
