The Justice Department has dismissed cases in the past including the Stevens case.That was requested by President Obama's own Attorney General Eric Holder for the same reason: misconduct by prosecutors. It was done before the same judge, Judge Sullivan. How is that for precedent?— Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) May 9, 2020
First. Shut the hell up. You're not President anymore. Second. Where do you get off making a suggestion of something being "unprecedented" when you are responsible for putting forth a Federal investigation into the Administration (replacing you) accusing them of basically being Russian spies. If there was something that has never been done before (and will never be done again) it's using the FBI to investigate the person who is replacing you.
Once time passes and history is written from an objective standpoint, this will be seen as a very unprecedented, illegal, and petty operation. The reality is that after being humiliated by a lack of any evidence of anything they alleged, they are now upset that their "process crimes" that were being forged together as time went on are falling apart.
Make no mistake. Making up these "process crimes" was the real criminal acts here.

McCabe testified he couldn't think of a single damaging piece of info "off the top of my head" that the FBI had verified from the Steele dossier.
We now know it's because the dossier is bunk. But McCabe put out innuendo until recently that some of dossier was corroborated.

For THREE YEARS we were constantly told different by Schiff, the "pastor", the MSM and political_lire.
Then the transcripts came out.
btw Where is the Atkinson transcript Schiff ? Still MIA
Obama should sit this one out but he is up to his eyeballs in corruption and the media is trying to cover for him and his administration. His last feeble hope is it gets past the next election and Biden wins with Dem majorities. Else he will be the poster boy of Corrupt Forever.
Just saw a new meme. Trump looking like he's ready to kick some ass. Caption reads
Hope you had fun investigating me. Now its my turn.
Now just what is it that's falling apart? I thought it was Barr's misrepresentations.
By the way, the honor of being "Poster Boy of Corrupt Forever" has already been earned by Trump.
Obama will go down in history as the most corrupt president since Harding.
His abuse of power would have embarrassed Nixon.
What else did we expect from a politician from Chicago but corruption?
More than 1,900 former Justice Dept. employees again call for Barr’s resignation
The Washington Post
May 11, 2020 at 10:04 a.m. CDT
More than 1,900 former Justice Department employees repeated a call for William P. Barr to step down as attorney general, asserting in an open letter he had “once again assaulted the rule of law” by moving to drop the case against President Trump’s former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn.
The letter, organized by the nonprofit group Protect Democracy, was signed by Justice Department staffers serving in Republican and Democratic administrations dating back to President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The vast majority were former career staffers — rather than political appointees — who worked as federal prosecutors or supervisors at U.S. Attorney’s Offices across the country or the Justice Department in downtown Washington.
Protect Democracy, which counts Justice Department alumni among its members, has organized several similar letters critical of Barr’s decisions or other Trump administration actions. Most recently, in February, the group collected more than 2,600 signatures on a letter calling for Barr to resign after he intervened to reduce career prosecutors’ sentencing recommendation for Roger Stone, a longtime friend of Trump. Jonathan Kravis, one of the prosecutors involved in Stone’s case who resigned after Barr’s action, wrote in a Washington Post column published Monday that in both matters, “the department undercut the work of career employees to protect an ally of the president, an abdication of the commitment to equal justice under the law.”
The new letter asserted that its signers “continue to believe that it would be best for the integrity of the Justice Department and for our democracy for Attorney General Barr to step aside.” The group also called on Congress to formally censure Barr and asked a federal judge in Washington to hold a hearing to scrutinize whether to dismiss the case against Flynn.
“Our democracy depends on a Department of Justice that acts as an independent arbiter of equal justice, not as an arm of the president’s political apparatus,” the group wrote.
Among the signers were several high-profile Republican appointees, including Donald Ayer, a deputy attorney general under President George H.W. Bush; Charles Fried, solicitor general under President Ronald Reagan; and Stuart Gerson, who led the Justice Department’s civil division under Bush and served as acting attorney general briefly in the Clinton administration. Justin Vail, a policy advocate with Protect Democracy, said the group was “inundated with calls from former Department of Justice attorneys who wanted to speak out” after the action in the Flynn case.

the pederast is so fucking stupid he thinks these crybabies are part of the solution when they are, in fact, the fucking problem.
Nearly 2000 former Justice Department officials have signed onto a letter calling for Attorney General William Barr to resign over what they describe as his improper intervention in the criminal case of former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn.

If you’re the President of the United States, and your top intelligence officials think spying on your political adversary during a presidential campaign is necessary for the sake of national security--there are ZERO imaginable scenarios where you are not involved.
#ObamaGate
one of probably 5 or 6 million taking into account big tech censorship... and our youth is seeing it

@TomFitton
Meanwhile, there's more than enough evidence for DOJ to REOPEN the Clinton email investigation! #Obamagate was as much about protecting Clinton as it was about destroying
@RealDonaldTrump.
Especially since the exact same FBI personnel were doing both simultaneously. Would be great if some backup of the Clinton server showed up somewhere.. of maybe some google cloud backup of it or...A DROPPING SHOE !!!
Obama reveals himself as an appalling legal ignoramus
By Thomas Lifson
It has always been a lie that Barack Obama was a distinguishded constitutional law scholar, a professor of law at the University of Chicago. In fact, he was a lecturer brought in to teach a class on his theories of race and law, and never published any scholarly work. That is not what a professor does.
But in his telephone call to “Obama alumni” that was immediately leaked to Michael Issikoff, he demonstrated appalling sloppiness and ignorance that reveals what a lightweight legal thinker he is.
The Wall Street Journal editorial board is slamming him this morning:
Barack Obama is a lawyer, so it was stunning to read that he ventured into the Michael Flynn case in a way that misstated the supposed crime and ignored the history of his own Administration in targeting Mr. Flynn. Since the former President chose to offer his legal views when he didn’t need to, we wonder what he’s really worried about.
“There is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free,” Mr. Obama said in the Friday call to about 3,000 members of the Obama Alumni Association. (snip)
…this gets the case willfully wrong. Mr. Flynn was never charged with perjury, which is lying under oath in a legal proceeding. Mr. Flynn pleaded guilty to a single count of lying to the FBI in a meeting at the White House on Jan. 24, 2017 that he was led to believe was a friendly chat among colleagues.
The Journal points out that it was President Bill Clinton who got off “scot-free” for lying under oath.
