Federal Appeals Court Orders Dismissal of Case Against General Flynn
Paul Craig Roberts
Federal district judge Emmet Sullivan was ordered yesterday in no uncertain terms by the US Court of Appeals to comply with the US Department of Justice’s decision to drop the invalid prosecution of General Flynn who had been coerced into a false plea by FBI threats to indict his son.
The FBI investigation of General Flynn concluded that he had done nothing wrong and recommended closing the investigation. But Democrat operative Peter Strzok pulled rank and kept the investigation open. Released FBI documents prove that Strzok and the FBI decided to frame General Flynn. The documents show that the plan is “to get him (Flynn) to lie so we can prosecute him or get him fired. . . . we should try to frame them in a way we want.”
In other words, the FBI abused its power in an effort to create a Russiagate scandal to hang around President Trump’s neck.
These now established facts played no role in the Appeals Court humiliation of the incompetent Judge Emmet Sullivan. Sullivan is so incompetent that he had no idea that no federal district judge can require the Department of Justice to prosecute anyone. Whether or not to prosecute is entirely a prosecutorial decision. The power does not reside in the judiciary, as the US Supreme Court has made clear. ..........read more..........
