A judge has indefinitely postponed Michael Flynn’s sentencing as Flynn presses to withdraw the guilty plea he entered more than two years ago

A judge has indefinitely postponed former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s sentencing on a charge of lying to the FBI as Flynn presses to withdraw the guilty plea he entered more than two years ago in a case prosecuted by special counsel Robert Mueller.

In his guilty plea, Flynn admitted lying to FBI agents about his dealings with the Russian ambassador during the presidential transition and making false statements about Trump transition officials’ lobbying on a United Nations resolution condemning Israel. Flynn also acknowledged that he signed Foreign Agent Registration Act filings that contained false statements about his work on a lobbying and advocacy project related to Turkey.

from Flynn’s ex-lawyers in order to assess his assertion that he got inadequate assistance from them.

Why was it postponed, just another criminal trick to get him off. Damn we are tired of this BS

Another career criminal. Lock Flynn up!

Trump appointed judge? More evidence of tampering w judicial system. Where is the ABA, do you not DIS-BAR rotten attorneys anymore or are you afraid too of current WH resident like some senators professed under cover of dark?

Lock him up.

Flynn is a traitor.

Amen the prosecutorial misconduct in his case by the us gov was staggering. Every American should be afraid. Prosecutors must be held criminally responsible for misconduct and face prison if,convicted. This must stop

Stop this BS. He belongs in jail.

Indefinitely until a pardon is signed ? Why not a Medal of Freedom as well ?

LockUpBillBarr

Should never have been charged - SETUP

File charges against the prosecutors. Free General Flynn!

'his former attorneys failed to give him adequate legal advice about potential defenses in his case' How much of a defense is there against 'Yes, I did it'?

If Ryan were a black man he would be more than two years into his prison sentence of likely 15 years.

When you admit to a felony under oath, you can't get out of it by saying you had bad legal advice. If he recants his admission of guilt, we can always get him for perjury. At least in the America we used to live in.

Folks, you have the evidence. For grief sake, get him in jail.

Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!

Why?

Sketchy. Flynn should be locked up for at least a year.

Flynn is a traitor and belongs in prison. What the hell is going on?

Flynn withdraws plea, DOJ withdraws charges, the end.

Flynn acted like a traitor, he needs to understand he is not above the law. giveHimJailTime

way back when, when laws were laws. i don’t blame him.

You watch the guy in the WH will commute his sentence

👏👏👏👏 🙏🙏🙏 BarbaraRedgate JosephJFlynn1

All these guys are so compromised. Carter Page, too. What a mess he was.

Wtf make spend the time lock up

krainessk8 This is unbelievable! LockHimUp

He was a victim of false warrants and nefarious 'investigations'! His record should be expunged, his commission reinstated!

Praying for that pardon to come through, huh? Freaking traitor, a disgrace to the military

What's shorter than a sentence? A participial phrase/phase?

Money makes the world go around 🎼🎵🎶 Tra La La La La

NastyOldWomyn I don’t know what to make of this. Sullivan seems unsympathetic to him. Is the DC AG the same guy Barr instalked? What gives here?

whyfund Still waiting from a pardon huh

There are two standards of justice apparently. For the politically connected like Flynn and for the rest of us.

The FBI changed his testimony on record! He’s not only NOT going to jail, whoever changed his evidence is.

Another abuse of Justice! Flynn broke his agreement with Mueller, keeping him & his son out of prison!! Criminals are stacking the courts, and DEMS are not getting Trump removed. Frustrating to no end..

Wrong!!

3 years into realDonaldTrump Presidency he has Obama beat by an mile with the number of indictments of people who have been associated with him! Vote the Orange Clown out in 2020! gtconway3d MSNBC CNN billmaher CuomoPrimeTime MikeBloomberg TODAYshow GMA

C'mon Man

Ugg this sucks. Rough to be Flynn rn.

Late January works for me.

It's like the guy who gets pulled over for drunk driving, and refuses the sobriety test, and wants a blood test, gets the hospital and then wants the sobriety test. When will this end?

Can you say 'I'm not guilty anymore?'

WTF...

Give me a break.

Flynn was the first victim in the Democrat failed coup conspiracy.

LOCK HIM UP

they are going to get him off the hook . . . that acquittal has wide-ranging results. Rudy safe now too.

Sounds about White

Watch as your nation buys black boots over dress shoes. Fascism in action with a hollywood pizzaz

why

Who withdraws a Guilty plea? Someone who thinks they can work the legal system to get away with it.

Gee this seems completely above board smdh

The fix is in..... Delay delay delay

Feds seek delay in Michael Flynn caseThe new filings say the former national security adviser’s claims that he received ineffective legal assistance will require more information. So sick of this. All Barr. Dems in the house need to do something about him. I wonder how often DOJ if it’s own volition looks into the ineffective assistance of counsel claims made by poor defendants who likely did have ineffective counsel. Treason Ken thinks he’s getting a pardon. Probably will.
