I think Flynn just had contacts.
mitchellvii The state of our justice system is deteriorating. Justice Sullivan is an example of why.
What an incredibly ridiculous OP ed. Was the editor on vacay or something?
What Flynn did was Treason
Wrong, the judge was right.
How dare Judge Sullivan impugn Gen Flynn's patriotism !! ... the Gen has done more for his country than the judge or all the other venal lawyers in the courtroom combined
Qu’est-ce encore que cette information , le sens de vos paroles m’échappe ?
Its not the judge's reputation at stake rather, its Flynn's freedom because of the severity of his actions that both the defense as well as the prosecution tried to downplay with little success.
That's bull! He defined his greatness for speaking the truth. You have sold your country out.
WSJ Opinion page is a sewage spill.
The stench from the bench is making me clench! MichaelFlynn
No he didn’t
But he did try, several times, to give Gen Flynn an out. 'Do you want to change your plea?' There must have been pre-arrangements.
CarnenameloA They need to change the venue, GenFlynn will never get a fair shake in the DC swamp. CorruptJudgeEmmetSullivan IStandWithFlynn
EMMET SULLIVAN SHOULD RESIGN NOW OR RECUSE HIMSELF ! HE IS A BIAS LEFTIST AND SHOULD KEEP HIS PERSONAL FEELINGS OUT OF THE COURT ROOM ! HE IS A LOOSER !
I don’t agree. Judge Sullivan did not damage his reputation. He proved to the whole country that Flynn is a traitor and his conduct is a disgrace to the Flag and the Uniform he wore. Flynn DID sell out the US which he took a solemn OATH to defend. Instead he sold out to Putin.
Not at all. I’ve lost respect of your journalism based on this fraudulent story.
How can Judge Sullivan not appreciate that Flynn was compelled to plead guilty despite evidence that he was induced, entrapped, and denied counsel. If Flynn admits that, then Mueller throws the book at him & his son.
mitchellvii These Liberal Judges has got to go Judge Emmet Sullivan shows us how out of touch he is to the American people by telling Our General Flynn has done treason then had to walk it back and he has no idea what the hell going on with Flynn hearing he's no Criminal like Mueller is
Judge Sullivans verbalizations were so inappropriate and also inaccurate he should be removed from the bench immediately. Clearly the Judge needs mental health evaluation before he destroys any lives. His past recent ruling should be reexamined too.
He should recluse himself
Judge is on soros payroll
Fact: WSJ continues to damage its own reputation by writing hilariously bad opinion pieces
CNNPolitics NBCNews FoxNews GOP KellyannePolls RudyGiuliani JaySekulow Are we going to allow vicious Judges like Sullivan to decide fate of Americans? GenFlynn should appeal to SCOTUS!
mitchellvii You really think he damaged his reputation among liberals and DC insiders? No.
PardonFlynn PardonGenFlynn PardonGeneralFlynn
Everyone is looking for a reality show.
JohnSheaffer8 This looks like judicial malpractice to me. He needs to step down from this case as a bare minimum, and probably could be sued by General Flynn for what he did.
Haha. I did not realize the had a comedy section too. Only a guilty person or unwitting agents would attack a sitting Federal Judges through an 'opinion' piece. The editorial board needs to check their flag.
Absolutely.
Opinions are like something else on you body, everybody has one. The judge has read the redacted copy, have you? washingtonpost Reuters
Judge should never have made those comments. Unpesidented in the annals of jurisprudence. Someone tell this idiot.
Judges are human. A lot of them are just a stupid as the rest of us.
Donna6499 All supporting this Judge failed to notice that the Judge had his dates wrong. SC pointed that out which is why the Judge had to apologize. Flynn stopped lobbying for Ukraine in Oct 2016. Judge thought it was post Jan 20, 2017.
The swamp always protects its own, circle the wagons swamp creatures!
Nice hit piece, chumps.
I got that he has an issue with the shortbus prosecutors
fedagentmark The Judges are using their robes for their personal agenda and not for the people of the United States. When do foreign nationals illegally here get coverage under a US Constitution? Hmmm maybe I'll enter Mexico illegally and make demands and expect entitlements.
I keep hearing about redactions? Let’s open up the original FISA warrants without redactions!
If Federal Judge Emmet Sullivan has half the integrity of General Flynn he would recluse himself from this trial.
I’m glad it’s just ur opinion
This is utter crap. Okey Foley Fox Journal News.
The judge has a responsibility to the bench to practice restraint. He later had to retract his words, as both inaccurate and inappropriate. Flynn hasn’t been charged with treason. 2 years later, still no Russia collusion. WitchHunt
mitchellvii Clinton appointee no surprise here.
mitchellvii He’s being paid so do you really think he cares
Interesting that this Opinion piece starts out with a royal “we”. Write your damn opinion don’t couch it in a crowd. And judges tend to give all kinds of their own opinions in their own courts
indyjasa That was extremely painful to hear the judge say what he did. Absolutely disgusting, and it’s slander. Even if it was apologized over, the damage is done.
englemanmike1 Sullivan is deep state judge & nothing matters but the end results..👉 take down of America
justonepatriot and do you theink the judge cares? He is on the bench for life and lives in his own bubble. The Judge doesnt care what the public thinks
michaelledeen has a different and eye witness take - the judge was offering Flynn a way out and was astounded he did not take it.
We now live where a Government has allowed Judges to step in where they do not belong. Congress passes off their responsibility many times to the court to decide when it is their job.Judges are appointed to stay neutral, not happening so we should be able to vote for Judges.
JohnFromCranber It's in Sullivan's liberal DNA, he can't help himself.
Flynn is a hostage that made a deal. He does not have to plead guilty, EXCEPT this private DEAL requires it. Personally I believe the judge was trying to wedge Flynn out of this deal by uncovering evidence that would allow Flynn to change his plea. Problem is the Secret Deal!
The Wall Street Journal has destroyed any shred of reputation it had left regarding the worth of its editorial page by peddling outrageous conspiracy theories.
The judge wasn't privy to what has really been happening. Mueller is. Flynn is an American hero. Even Mueller knows this. Expect this case to be eventually tossed.
alicia45KAG Judge does not care they can do whatever they want in today’s world
He really hasn't but you are Trump's mouth piece, he stated what the majority of the country is thinking already, Flinn would have sold us out to the Russia, he was negotiating lifting sanctions with them, they are not our allies, they interfered w/ our elections, he's a traitor
It doesn't take a federal judge to come to that conclusion or a reading of the redacted material. Public sourcing is enough. Maybe WSJ opinion writers should familiarize themselves with the facts. Try reading some reputable news sources.
Republican reds were tripping over thier own feet to grab those Russian rubles.😐
mitchellvii Mueller made him do it
JohnFromCranber Sullivan needs to recuse himself!!!
mitchellvii And the democrats questioned Kavanagh’s temprement. You see if they called Sullivan out it would give the left so much more respect as they wouldn’t be viewed as hypocritical, but as long as they’re is crickets, they will always be viewed as partisan.
Your Op Ed quote “The Tender Mercy Of Turkey”. Yeah Right, the only tender mercy given was to FLYNN ! ScumBag should get 20 yrs in the “Hotel with the most Bars”
mitchellvii 😂
Really?
Hahahah. No. Hahahaha Idiot's Don't you see reality?
Crap opinion piece
Of course this piece came from you.
To even mention Michael Flynn and the word 'treason' in the same sentence just indicates how intellectually challenged and politically manipulated the judiciary has become. No repudiation to these judicial comments, from this once respected branch of government, is a disgrace!
mitchellvii What does he care about his reputation? Lifetime appointment to a federal bench. Zero accountability. Impeachment will never happen. Wild West.
That doesn't phase the judge or the MSM. It's all about creating even more drama and they get to keep repeating Trump did it even though nothing has been proven.
mitchellvii He should be removed from his job!
Genl Flynn WAS a hero. Then he sold out his country. Benedict Arnold was a hero too. One of America’s great military leaders. The hero of Saratoga. Then he sold out his country and was a hero no more. And if Flynn wasn’t what Trump calls a rat, He’d be another Benedict Arnold.
Whoever wrote this piece SHOULD BE FIRED and EXPELLED FROM THE US. At this point, there IS NO GRAY AREA. You are either a US Patriot, or you are a criminal trying to blurr the lines defining criminal behavior and law enforcement/laws that will be used for prosecution.
Michael Flynn sold his honor and the country out for money. Don't blame this on the Judge. Michael Flynn is liar and his loyalties should be questioned.
mitchellvii Miserables judges will pay it.They are resentful
mitchellvii How could the freakin judge in the Flynn case be so misinformed? Hell, I know more about the circumstances than that dope does! This is “Juris Prudence”?
All your readers that are fighting your opinion needs to do is read the transcript from the hearing. It was not based on redacted info LOL nice try. He was unprepared and got the dates wrong. Judge didnt think FLynn LIed, no 'treason' and wanted him to seek better counsel.
mitchellvii And then had the wall to call illegals back in? He's nuts.
mitchellvii Surprised by the comments relying so heavily on speculation about what might be in a heavily redacted document. It’s patent incompetence of a judge who couldn’t even get the timeline right and had to be corrected by his own law clerks. Critical thinking skills are all but dead.
Opinion: The judge has read the redacted parts of the indictment and knows much more than we do. Flynn lied to the FBI and betrayed the nation.
mitchellvii
mitchellvii What was the treason?
Quiet the opposite.
mitchellvii remember when oldie Justice Roberts said their are no Clinton, Bush, Obama or Trump judges. Lol
mitchellvii Thereby removing all doubt as to which side the Judge is on. No one could make it clearer than WSJ that there was more to this situation than what first met the eye.
mitchellvii Indeed.
mitchellvii Too bad that Sullivan has tipped his deep state hand. Rather than end this, he publicly notified Flynn that they aren't finished with him yet. Not until he puts the final nail in the Trump family coffin will they let him go. Sadly he will shame himself publicly
You bet. Judicial activism run a mock
General Michael Flyinn is an inocent humble general he acepted money from the gvt of TURKEY as a gesture of good will . He the FBI as a inmature oficial of the Trump administration he didnt know better
..... since when did telling the truth hurts a person reputation? Oh, I see!
Trump supported news ugh cancel them for ever.
Why does the WSJ not like to hear the truth?
A judge may base a sentence on conduct a convicted felon has not been charged with or admitted to, but ok
Rupert Murdoch is the head of the snake. We see you.
But this judge has seen the unredacted document - so until we all see it , I say we go with he knows something that warranted the treatment
Of course Flynn admitted to committing the crime of being an undisclosed agent for a foreign government. His business partner was indicted for that based on Flynn’s information.
Nothing but pure stinking bias. If this was the Obama Admin or Clinton, the WSJ would be ready to lock everyone away. Just stop.
He's read the redacted portions and is disgusted
Once again you disappoint, . The only reputation damaged by this article is yours.
Uh...that was Judge Sullivan’s problem - what Flynn was NOT charged with.
LMAO All you people on the left took the bait and chanted, 'lock him up'! Glad to know everyone is on the same page now- the charge for acting as an unregistered foreign agent is treason. But Flynn was registered. Guess who wasn't? The Clinton foundation. Checkmate bitches.
Laughable that Flynn, a veteran/career soldier, savvy to legal counsel, would now claim to be a Judge Sullivan.
No, he didn't. He represented the people, by doing his job. Do you honestly think that the majority of Americans aren't asking: Has this administration committed treason? Will they be punished? Many Americans have already formed an opinion on the matter. Sullivan nailed it!
Instead of 'crime he's not charged with and hasn't admitted' which may be true. How about calling it 'a crime that he's committed' which is common knowledge. The judge saw evidence that wasn't retracted. Flynn may well have admitted to it and not been charged.
It's People like you that embolden these criminals and tear good judges down, So keep your opinion to yourself if you have nothing good to say this man Michael Flynn is a damn criminal and should be put away for 5 to 10 years.
Where I get the selfishness of man to the point of harming people to reach the top of the stairs!
Have you seen the redacted parts of the sentencing memo? The judge did. I have a hunch his outburst was more than justified. The Murdochs might want to get on the right side of history before it’s too late.
' an extraordinary public attack on Michael Flynn for a crime he’s not been charged with or admitted to So why was he even in court?
We have learned a major lesson in the last two years: The Judiciary can be just as screwed up as any other branch of government.
Nyet
SINCE WHEN DOES A SITTING JUDGE call a retired military a traitor to his country,! What the hell is going on? What did this judge learn in law school? He should be removed from the bench and be defrocked !
Damaged? Au contraire, he's got my vote for the MuellerSheWrote sexy justice calendar
No he didn't. The wall street journal is the paper version of fox news channel. A Donald trump propaganda paper of course also owned by Rupert Murdoch. You are not going to save Trump he has been doing dirt to many years. Give it up.
wsj rupertmurdoch how long are you going to debase your long standing place in journalism to carry water for a criminal? How long? Rupert Murdoch is an embarrassment to himself and his family. I deleted my subscription today and ask all to do the same.
Agree with your article. There was no treason. When Flynn was working with Turkey he was NOT in the White House. They (Mueller) dropped that indictment on the Turkey men the day BEFORE Flynn’s trial. Mueller thought Judge was going to let Flynn off for bad questioning & no lawyer
WSJ ...for most of America...he is a hero
WSJ does not know what is behind the redacted evidence. So it is clueless in regards to Flynn. He may very well indeed be a traitor. He obviously has know problem selling out america.
According to the 'alternative reality' of the WSJ who committed the crime - and damaged his reputation - was Judge Sullivan, not Flyn.
Bullshit, Judge Sullivan did his job.
Mr and Mrs editorial board. Hes been charged for lying to the FBI about his business relationships with foreign governments while working for the US. I’d say the only reputation your bs article is hurting is your own.
Murdoch owned, Trump-propaganda organ says what?
Oh please. I’ve heard judges say way worse than that without any damage to their reputation. Try going to criminal court more often and listening.
Since when did the WSJ become a front for trumpism?
I think Flynn should have been charged with treason. The judge misread the charges and that could have been the reason for the incorrect monologue
Personally i appreciate Judge Sullivan for saying what I, for one , was thinking all along! If you agree with me, please RT! Tired of these folks acting like we're NOT seeing what we're seeing. Call it like it T-I-IS!
Serious lack of judgement.He has mo option but to withdraw himself from the case
It was a negotiating ploy to get him to cooperate.
Lately it’s looking more and more like the WSJ is turning into the Fox Street Journal. Sad.
A frustrated judge wants to have his moment in the media.
Deep state got to him!
I don’t think so:
Articles like this is why I don't read the WSJ. It's just another Murdoch rag now.
No he didn't It's wsj whose reputation is ruined with stupid opinions like this. Judge has the right to speak the truth in his court. Traitors & treason is real in Trump Administration & MSM.
Not really.
Sounds like the judge was using realDonaldTrump tactics. Well, our POTUS doesn't mind damaging his own reputation...daily 😎MSNBC FoxNews CNN 11thHour ShepNewsTeam HardballChris FoxNewsSunday nytimes washingtonpost TheJusticeDept uscourts SCOTUS USATODAY AP ajc
But don’t you wonder when the redacted finally becomes public will he have been right, because he’s read it?
The journal of trump writes another hack article
newspaper by a man married chinese lady spy？
Would it make you feel better if Judge Sullivan said he likes beer?
And I think you are wrong. He is the first person to come out and say what every true American is thinking. Flynn committed treason and as a retired veteran I think he should be stripped of his rank put against a wall and shot.
It appeared to me that Sullivan was deeply upset by what he’d read in the redacted portions of the documents. And only he and the Mueller team know what that info was.
Ah, from a highly respected judge who will throw the charges out of the window, to 'damaged his reputation' are the conservative spin and twirl.
WSJ, his sound s like a traffic court judge's response to a plaintiff. In the judges defense, melatonin over use is possible.
Judge Sullivan has every right to ask prosecutors about their charges bc he's reviewed the evidence. Flynn admitted he knew he was breaking the law acted as an unregistered fire agent. As NSA head had access to USA most sensitive Intel. He gets to pass judgement in his courtroom!
President Trump is only unpopular to the elitists and elitist wannabes. He’s very popular among true red blooded Americans. Unfortunately, thanks to illegal immigration, we may become a minority; which is what the elites want, of course.
The WSJ is off it’s rocker. Extraneous offenses are considered in determining punishment.
This judge is to be commended for doing his job. The level of betrayal he saw (which is mostly redacted 2 us), so outraged him, that he disagreed with Spec Counsel’s recommendation. He was also pissed that Flynn had the audacity to say he was entrapped by the FBI, please!
So WSJ you decide to focus on the judge and not the accused? You telling the judge how to run his court? Disappointing lockhimup
From David French (read&learn) Yesterday exposed the gap between the Flynn Spin & the Flynn case. He wasn't entrapped. He lied about his contacts w/Russia, lied about his relationship with Turkey, and is now an unindicted participant in a disturbing Turkish influence operation
...have you too become a Russian bot? 🤥
My reputation or my country? That’s a tough one, huh?
The judge was helping Flynn. Fly was the one in the media that made it seem like he was entrapped. The judge called him on it giving him an opportunity to restate his claim. He didn't. How could you guys distort that?
Not my opinion
As a Chinese, I don't know what this American general have done. But I don't think he is a bad man. He has contributed himself to his country for most of his life. Maybe he is just lack of dirty politician experience. Whatever, he doesn't deserve this outcome. He is a real man.
After such gaffes and apparent bias, judge Sullivan must recuse himself.
Wrong
Lol. You are do biased. YOU have not seen redacted info like he has. Shut the fucj up
Baloney. The judge spoke the truth.
Flynn is getting a VERY sweet deal when Mueller knows he acted as an unregistered foreign agent, and then Flynn turns around and tries to pawn HIS OWN guilty plea off on the FBI. If ya ain’t guilty then don’t plead guilty.
Right because when you sell out your country, you shouldn’t be called out on it
I love WSJ
This grasping at straws is truly pathetic, and undermines the quality of the reporters that make the rest of your paper great.
fu
Needs to RECUSE himself!
WRONG! Dead wrong. He acted as a foreign agent. Failed to report income. And made decisions that were in the best interests of a foreign entity, not Americans. He lied. Decisions matter. Shame on you FoxNewsJournal
Ha ha that’s such BS
Your cover is blown . You can stop trying to sway opinions now.
Bullshit
Your opinion sucks, we don’t know to the full extent what Flynn has done and the Judge has read redacted documents!!
I don't know about this, but I do know that Mueller's entire investigation is easier than unsubscribing from the Wall Street Journal's digital edition.
Who got to Emmet Sullivan.
Your editorial is obscene. We all understand what Lt. General Flynn engaged in was TREASON, and that is not open to debate any longer, as the indictments that led to his guilty plea made clear.
Sorry don't think so. Rep is in tact, Truth is a bitch ain't it
Wrong.
AA judge appointed by Reagan has the audacity to express disgust in treasonous like behavior of a medicore WM and it's the judge that has damaged his reputation. 😑
Yeah ok.
Wall Street Journal lost it’s reputation years ago, Glass houses buddy.
He literally admitted to the crime in court. WSJ Opinion is laughable.
Disappointed in your reporting and analysis lately. You’ve lost credibility.
Should this judge recuse himself?
The new Judge Ito, complete disgrace
Yeah WTH?
What's that I don't see on my driveway every morning anymore? Oh, yeah, the WSJ. After decades of subscribing I had to shut 'er down. I won't forgive the WSJ for it's editorial board article attacking the Mueller investigation. They won't get any more money from me. Ever.
Flynn is garbage - his actions should deeply offend every American. Those of you defending him and publishing bullshit op eds in his defense need to examine your values. and your brains.
We assume this was written per direct orders from Murdoch.
Definitely an opinion piece and you know what they say about opinions.
No longer entrapment? you guys should make smarter arguments. You come off as more partisan than usual with transparent attempts like this to flood the zone
I’m pissed too. A 3 star general working as an agent for a foreign government. It’s like the chief of police being a pedifile. FYI....they are using ambushed versus attacked. You are under sensationalized the company line.
Horse hockey
What happened to the WSJ? Turned into Fox Light.
Sorry. I don’t hold traitors in the highest regard as does. Sullivan could have fired nerf guns at Flynn and spoke in tongues and most of us would be a-fucking ok with it.
I’ll take you more seriously when you say are this critical of the guy who lied to the FBI and failed to register as a foreign agent.
News not views
No.
Well that’s where ur wrong n showing ur bias. A judge has the authority 2 ignore recs frm prosecutors and sentence as they see fit. They r allowed 2 consider many factors that justify their decisions. He was well within his right. If u and ur boss Rupert don’t like it tough sh*t.
Cue the people who think the fact they don't subscribe to the WSJ any longer matters to anyone....
No, actually he didn't. But, hey, any way you can to defend Flynn, right?
It’s interesting how it is never Trump or his people who are the problem. Its always EVERYBODY else. The Clintons, Obama, Comey, Sessions, Pelosi, FBI agents, prosecutors, lawyers, judges. Occam’s Razor says the most likely problem is the common denominator: Trump.
These liberal judges are trashing America
Opinion: You should stop posting junk.
The Judge has access to info regarding what Flynn admitted to. In fact, the Judge said he did. You are shooting yourselves in the foot.
Not really
Opinion: The Wall Street Journal has damaged its own public reputation by giving up on knowledge and communication of facts and perspective.
When did become The Enquirer.
Flynn is a traitor to his country
Damaged his reputation with who exactly? With WSJ? WGAF?
Really objective wsj. Smh
Ridiculous. The judge is not limited to only what Flynn's pleading guilty to as part of the deal in his remarks. The judge has information from sealed documents describing Flynn's actual crimes.
Opinion: wsj op ed has damaged its own reputation with an attack on Sullivan who has access to redacted info.
Womp womp
The only credibility I see damaged is WSJ. Shame.
Judge Sullivan that showed up in court wasn’t the judge that dealt with Enron and the Stevens cases. What happened to him? If he’s ill, lacks mental capacity he should abstain or be removed.
Yeah to Judge Sullivan! Country over all else!
Who are you wsj? are you a properganda arm like Fox News Enquire clear tv? Who are you really?
I hope Mr. Trump will help this general after all this is done shame on them not on the general we all should salute this general
Huh? What kind of abject nonsense is this?
To be fair, the judge got to read the redacted parts. You didn’t.
Opinion: Supreme Court Judge Bret Kavanaugh has damaged his own reputation with an extraordinary public attack on impartiality for a crime he’s not been charged with or admitted to
Nah. I think Flynn is the damaged one. Every American should be outraged at the traitor!!!! The op-ed writer can go scratch.
Yawn
I guess now that foxnews doesn’t tweet, rupertmurdoch & newscorp have decided to wipe their collective asses w/ what remained of WSJ’s integrity? 2 editorials from the board with spurious reasoning in a week? I hope Mueller doesn’t come knocking for your sake, just ask AMI.
The only reputation tarnished was Flynn's for committing treason. The judge is a hero. Your blatant disregard for the rule of law is typical of propaganda machines.
pretty shitty opinion kiddo.
Sure rupertmurdoch beyotches 🤣 Let us know when u find your morals, integrity and loyalty to your country not to some old man’s greed 🤨FauxNews
No he hasn't. He speaks the truth! Flynn sold out his country. TREASON
What?
No he has not tarnished anything, quit whining, will ya!
I guess has access to the materials that judge does not have access to, and clearly determine that Flynn is innocent. Interesting enough we have a guy who admitted to his guilt and then we have who refuses to accept that.
Lol that’s just a stupid story. Flynn admitted it all through his cooperation with the special counsel.
And this is why the WSJ is going to doe out with FoxNews and the babyboomers.
He clearly admitted to it
You — WSJ— have not seen the redacted parts of the charges against Flynn so you’re knowledge is half-assed at best — and so is your I’ll-advised response.
Subscription canceled suckers.
Way to attack the rule of law. One more reason I canceled that subscription.
seriously? Obviously u don’t research. Basically when you sneak around doing work for other countries and plot to kidnap & transport folks and get it paid for all of it..that’s selling out your country! Keep writing stuff like this & I won’t read u anymore!! Well done Judge!
Disagree. The judge just expressed the utter disgust all Americans feel by the betrayal of trust from a General and NSA. Flynn does not deserve to wear the uniform.
This is a major fail by the judge
Seriously? Sullivan was the adult in the room. Ryan and Trump are not on the side of America
Don't read their articles because they like to charge but I don't see how he ruined his reputation, Hell he didn't commit a crime.
Sure he has. The rag opinion page strikes again. More toilet paper.
Why would the WSJ align themselves with the likes of Roger Stone and Alex Jones?
No.
Whose fkg opinion? You've been blocked.
Pravda editorial board says what?
MCITLFrAphorism From the judge’s statements he is almost required to recuse himself!
But Sullivan has knowledge of all those redacted parts. He knows all of Flynn’s crimes that we don’t know yet
You have not seen the redacted information that Judge Sullivan has seen. Lock Him Up
That opinion is a ton of horseshit
That's how I feel 2. Why lie? If Flynn believes people should b locked up 4 breaking the law, then w/ more reason Flynn should practice what he preaches. If his family profited from his actions, then they should pay the price just the same. What do U think realDonaldTrump ? CNN
Ok WSJ. Ok. Keep spinning for your boy. Holy hot piece.
Good one! Don’t buy it. Judge was looking at unredacted material unlike WSJ
I’m canceling my subscription now.
In pronouncing sentence, asentencing judge has discretion to consider conduct, even those for which the criminal is not charged. , be a patriot and serve our Democracy and stop wasting ink supporting those who would to undermine it.
*cracks knuckles* Dis gon' be easy. Opinion: Murdoch's Newscorp has damaged its own reputation with an extraordinary public attack on Federal Judge Emmet Sullivan for asking a logical question about the criminal culpability of the defendant in a federal case involving NatSec.
He plead guilty. Pretty sure that’s the legal definition of admitting to something.
Get your facts straight WSJ!
Nyet. Who wrote this garbage?
Time to smear the black judge
MCITLFrAphorism It seems to me Judge Sullivan has succumbed to Acton’s admonition. “That power corrupts & that absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
He did the right thing! When a judge gets heated there is a lot going on in the back ground. Lock Flynn up!
Is Murdoch a writer now? Typical Murdoch newspaper
Oh come on! Give me a break! He said what we all hoped he would an apparently it worked
The WSJ thinks the judge is the problem here? Typical.
Flynn is everything the judge stated and worse. He deserves to go to jail for a long time. He’s a disgrace to the uniform and the country!
Of course, the judge has seen the non-redacted report, so maybe he wasn't overreacting.
Wrong he is all good
And this wacko judge just ruled on asylum rules....scotus will be busy overruling these activist and apparently idiot judges.
You guys are straight up con artists
The WSJ certainly has gone downhill. This is blatantly misleading and poorly thought out.
No, you have this very wrong. Most people are applauding Judge Simpson. Again, on the wrong side of everything.
We'll see.
Your opinion has no legal standing &is BS considering you don’t know what’s in redacted information & evidence that Judge Sullivan has access to in this case❗️ Judge Sullivan is well within his standing as a judge to draw his conclusions on ALL evidence & enact his own sentence❗️
Now he wants deported asylum seekers returned. WTF?
Bet he’s a democrat ... they look at stuff politically in lieu of legal or not legal ...
Zactly. Judge is unfit at best.
That’s why I cancelled the WSJ.
Utterly amazing that Republicans have permitted Demcrats get away with WITCH HUNT. Then not prosecute James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok.
Again another opinion but and the word of treason get used to it it's not what you expect
No, the judge was only explaining that GenFlynn is a traitor and was discussed on the way Flynn thought that he could walk right in and get probation. lockhimup
I respectfully disagree. Americans NEED people like JudgeEmmetSullivan to stand up & call out immoral, unethical & illegal behaviors on those who have 'played' the system & believe they have a right to 'sell out' our country for their own personal wealth & interests. Lawsmatter
The judge has seen the un redacted sentencing documents.
What’s in those redactions that made the judge so angry? Perhaps we should not pass judgment until we know all the evidence that the judge has in front of him. Just thinking...
Seriously?
I mean, there’s a “Flynn Fiasco,” but this ain’t it. board, you’re embarrassing yourselves.
But it was okay for another Judge to accuse Mueller's prosecutors of trying to get Manafort to flip on Trump. GTFO.
U DO NOT KNOW WHAT JUDGE KNOWS. Delete ur halfassed opinion.
Please, this was nothing special at all. Judges do and say stuff, whatever comes to their minds, from the bench in criminal hearings/trials all the damn time. My guess is that you guys don't see much of this as it usually involves very poor people leading to crimes.
Lol literally no one but the MAGAots believe this.
Strange rant. For a Judge he was very poorly prepared
counter take... no, he hasn't
Laughable smear piece on a judge reacting to the contempt Flynn showed for the office and premises of the WH and his role in it.
At a time when most of us are looking for real, fact based news, this piece confirms for me that you are as trashy as FoxNews. blockwsj
How has it not occurred to you that perhaps this was suggested by the non-public material? And how did you fail to notice that the judge did not get an answer on whether or not treason had been considered as a charge? If it hadn’t been, they would just say no.
The Judge was more partisan than prepared, much to his discredit.
You can not possibly form a valid opinion worthy of print without knowing everything that the judge knows. As he knows a heck of a lot more than you I think I'll go with his opinion.
That's what you call an activist judge.
With such 'impartial' judges who needs enemies
Wrong, the judge had reviewed the redacted material and was incensed, as will we all be at some point when all of this becomes public.
Wasn't it made public by the media? MSNBC ABCPolitics NBCPolitics HuffPostPol USATODAY CBSNews washingtonpost AP_Politics
HOT GARBAGE
I don't believe that the judge given information and reacted to that information nothing wrong with the judge
The WSJ is a joke
You have trouble opinions
I wonder whether that would still be your opinion had you read the unredacted record. As the judge had when he addressed Gen. Flynn. TRE45ON
Full. Of. Shit. Had every right.
WSJ has damaged its reputation by allowing its opinion editors to defend Trump's criminal conspiracy
This whole thing is the biggest fiasco in American history!! Trump deserves respect!!
Who writes your editorials? Sean Hannity?
When you ask yourself why I don’t subscribe to the WSJ anymore, remember that you publish this drivel.
Was thinking the same.
Sad demise of the WSJ
WSJ = Extremist mouthpiece
WSJ WTF? You had better get some editorial integrity. Flynn sought to use his position to enrich himself to plan a kidnapping. And he lied to the FBI. This makes you seem like Faix Noise.
Ah no
the air up there on the bench is thinner... coulda been hypoxia.
This tactic from a federal judge should concern all Americans who value justice and a judiciary that plays by the rules.
Is this a Onion article?
Indeed. With such judges who needs enemies
Flynn sentencing delayed after attack from federal judge.
opinion of course Rupert Murdoch whatever you say
Sure
The redactions hold the secrets. A judge doesn’t just throw out the word treason for no reason
Nope
No, he did not and WSJ Editorial Board should apologize.
The Judge DID NOT damage his reputation. People admire him for chiding this traitor.
Bullpucky
🤣🤣🤣 This is satire, right? 🤣🤣🤣
The wall shit journal has damaged their own reputation with an extraordinary public attack on the truth. Again.
So when is the Wall Street Journal going to rename itself 'The MAGA Journal?'
Let’s wait a year to decide about reputations. This is way premature and stinks of bias instead of reason.
Disagree completely FlynnisaTraitor
WSJ u r wrong
This includes you...
No he hasn’t
maybe it's because the things in redactions are even worse
It’s sickkkkkkk!
