Kevin Johnson and Kristine PhillipsNational Security Advisor Michael Flynn and President Donald Trump arrive at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida to visit the U.S. Central Command and Specials Operations Command on Feb. 6, 2017.
Flynn's case was one of the first brought by former special counsel Robert Mueller as part of his investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election and possible ties to the Trump campaign. The Justice Department overruled the attorneys, saying the prison recommendation was too harsh. The prosecutors withdrew from Stone's case in apparent protest. One resigned from the Justice Department.
Flynn's case has been stalled in federal court for two years as his defense team alleges he was framed in a government conspiracy. Last month, Flynn withdrew his guilty plea, accusing prosecutors of acting in"bad faith" during their investigation. Barr's decision to tap an outside prosecutor to review Flynn's case comes as the Justice Department conducts another politically charged inquiry into the origins of the Russia probe, which cast a cloud over the first years of the Trump presidency.
DONALD FF IS A CRIMINAL

Gee, I guess the DoJ Inspector General was unavailable? Or is it simply that Barr can't control the IG? Barr is spreading the cancer of politics thru the DOJ. Shameful.
