Judge Emmet Sullivan reportedly has cancelled a November hearing he had scheduled in the case of Gen. Michael Flynn. Judge Sullivan said he is cancelling the hearing “in view of the parties’ comprehensive briefing concerning Defendant’s Motion to Compel Production of Brady Material.” In other words, he has all the argumentation he needs to rule on this motion.
So apparently Sullivan either sees nothing within the argument that has any merit, or he has seen enough overwhelming evidence of misconduct that there is nothing the state could provide that would change his mind. Apparently, the Flynn team is happy, because they believe that the evidence that they provided is now in front of the court unrebutted. The fact that Sullivan suggests that the briefings are comprehensive, suggests that his ruling is pretty much cut and dried... one way or the other.
We have been around and around on this one for a while. It seems that the major problem for Flynn has been his reluctance to take back his previous guilty plea. His counsel has repeatedly hedged, by offering that there was certain misconduct, without actually pulling the plea back and demanding some sort of do-over. Sullivan has repeated brought that fact up as a reason to not take these accusations seriously.
Flynn obviously wants to hang onto something that was provided to him in return for his guilty plea (thought to be immunity from prosecution for family members accused of unrelated criminal actions). One gets the impression that Sullivan wants Flynn to go all in on this one, and one certainly gets the feeling that Sullivan is willing to rule in his favor if he did. But at what cost to Flynn?

Actually Flynn replaced his lawyers (deep state??) with new ones and they appear to be doing a standup job. I believe Sidney Powell leads the new group and has fought to overcome things like edited 302's and lack of producing Brady material.
This could be another real upcoming bombshell.
Take back his guilty plea......BWAAAAAAA!!!! A fucking do over Lil Scotty.....wonder what the precedent for that is Mr Law expert!!!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! I am sure there are lots of examples for flynns problem in ASE LAW!!!!!

On Tuesday morning, the rhetoric from Trump's defenders was more explicit.
“If you look at this lieutenant colonel’s background, he’s got a Purple Heart, he got hit by an IED in Iraq,” Brian Kilmeade said on “Fox & Friends.” “We also know he was born in the Soviet Union, immigrated with his family, young. He tends to feel simpatico with the Ukraine."
On CNN, former congressman Sean P. Duffy (R-Wis.) suggested that Vindman’s birthplace was important.
“It seems very clear that he is incredibly concerned about Ukrainian defense,” Duffy said. “I don’t know that he’s concerned about American policy, but his main mission was to make sure that Ukraine got those weapons.”
(Of course, Ukraine’s defense is still U.S. policy.)
“I understand that. We all have an affinity to our homeland where we came from,” Duffy continued. “Like me, I'm sure that Vindman has the same affinity. … He's entitled to his opinion. He has an affinity, I think, for the Ukraine. He speaks Ukrainian. He came from the country and he wants to make sure they're safe and free."
