President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to federal investigators who were looking into his contacts with the Russian ambassador.The Justice Department and the legal team for former national security adviser Michael Flynn faced tough questions from a skeptical panel of federal appeals court judges this morning in their bid to overrule a district judge who has not yet accepted the department's request to throw out the case.
At least two of the judges on the panel, judge Karen Henderson and judge Robert Wilkins, expressed clear reservations in their questioning of Powell and Principal Deputy Solicitor General Jeffrey Wall, who was arguing on behalf of the government. Attorney General William Barr has denied acting at the behest of President Donald Trump and said the move to drop the case was based on newly uncovered evidence concerning the conduct of agents who investigated Flynn. Barr said that at the time of Flynn's interview with the FBI the counter-intelligence probe into him was not legitimate, so his lies about his contacts with the Russian ambassador were not"material" to any legitimate investigation.
Former White House National Security Advisor Michael Flynn leaves the Prettyman Federal Courthouse following a sentencing hearing in U.S. District Court, Dec. 18, 2018 in Washington. "You have all these allegations being lobbed at the executive branch, we're going to have to answer them in a public forum in a politicized environment," Wall responded."If it isn't already, I think it is threatening to become and will become the sort of public spectacle that I think [calls for the court to] foreclose [the case]."
Egregious and outrageous. Barr is acting outside his lane as AG on Trumps behalf. He has lied on National TV. He seems to crave attention and it makes him repulsive. He was not hired by the people and as he has no credibility a firing/investigation would be in our best interest.
Obama will be prosecuted for illegally spying on Trump.
If only everyday people had the luxury of choosing who should be their judge to give them the outcome of their choice.
They will be letting their bias show if they have no legal cases to support their decision to allow a judge to subvert the state's request to dismiss
Only someone from the Trump administration can plea “ guilty “ twice ! Then be called “ a hero “ by this FAKE president. You can’t make this up. Lap dog Barr ! Disgraceful and illegal ! This too will end up in the Supreme Court.
