All these Demorats are nutjobs. Even the few Democrats I know don't support this crazy stuff. They are going to have terrible turnout.

Prosecutors suggest delay in Flynn sentencing



© Aaron Schwartz

Federal prosecutors on Sunday sought a delay in the sentencing of former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn due to his request to withdraw his earlier guilty plea to lying to the FBI, with the U.S. Attorney’s office saying the request may require testimony from his former attorneys.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington did not specifically call for Flynn’s February 27 sentencing to be delayed in the Sunday court filings, but proposed a postponement of deadlines in a way that would leave little chance of the sentencing happening on schedule.

The filing was first reported by Politico.

In the new filings, prosecutors say Flynn’s former attorneys at the law firm of Covington & Burling may need to testify in regard to his claims that they gave him ineffective counsel. Also on Sunday, prosecutors asked Judge Emmet Sullivan, an Obama appointee, to rule that Flynn’s conversations with his erstwhile defense team are no longer subject to attorney-client privilege.

“The government requests that the Court suspend the current briefing schedule concerning the defendant’s [motion] until such time as the government has been able to confer with Covington regarding the information it seeks,” the filings stated.

“While Covington has indicated a willingness to comply with this request, it has understandably declined to do so in the absence of a Court order confirming the waiver of attorney-client privilege,” the U.S. Attorney’s office added.



Flynn’s current defense team, led by Sidney Powell, a frequent critic of special counsel Robert Mueller Robert (Bob) Swan Mueller Impeachment is over — or is it?

“Our position is that at the minimum, the Department of Justice should agree to withdrawal of the plea,” Flynn’s lawyers said. “Accordingly, we oppose any further extension of the briefing schedule.”

I was surprised that he actually used the word intelligentsia.
It's a very elitist word, and if those people think they are superior
to most others, they will try to enact laws to eliminate inferiors,
just like old Adolph did. Eventually, when enacting laws becomes
too tedious, they'll just declare new laws in effect, like Obama did
with DACA.
Maybe DACA was a test run to see how much tyranny Americans are
prepared to tolerate.

Dems are gaslighting Americans, in preparation of eliminating the
country and establishing tyrannical rule of conceited "intellectuals".

Such 'idee grandeur' always ends badly for the high & mighty.
But for a time, maybe a long time, people will persevere under
their "let them eat cake" delusions.
