    “Arguably, this undermines everything this flag over here stands for. Arguably, you sold your country out.”

    — Judge Emmet Sullivan, quoted by Axios, blasting former national security adviser Michael Flynn from the bench during his sentencing hearing in D.C. federal court.

    Today, the music died
    Bye, bye, Mr. American Spy
    Drove the plea deal with a big squeal but the tear ducts were dry
    And a good ole judge, asking "treason" and why?
    Singing, this will be the day that you cry
    This will be the day that you cry

    Lawyers for former national security advisor Michael Flynn asked a federal judge to delay his sentencing for 90 days — until his cooperation with special counsel Robert Mueller’s team is complete — during a sometimes heated appearance in D.C. federal court on Tuesday, Axios reports.

    Washington Post: “The delay was a stunning development in the case, as it had appeared Flynn would be able to avoid time behind bars.”

    I think he irritated Mr. Mueller with his bitching about not knowing it wasn't OK to lie.
     
  6. But it's okay for the FBI to lie. Fuck them and this judge and the corrupt FBI. Saving the nation? From what. They're no better than our enemies and in many cases they're worse.

  7. Think what you want about the FBI, Flynn did something illegal, Trump fired him for it and he admitted to it in court..

    Of course the oppressive US justice system is only an issue for you and your fellow republicans now since its a conservative white male you perceive as being wronged.

    White republicans lives matter!!!

    This judge wasnt accepting some halfway confession. Flynn is going to have to wait a couple years for that Fox News contract all because he had to put in his sentence memo that he had no clue it was a crime to lie to the fbi.

    The judge rightly found this lie offensive to the court, to the presidency as an institution and a threat to national security.

    Now Flynn gets to get squeezed more before he goes to jail.

    This judge deserves a medal.

    Problem is that what he yelled about him about was not what he pled guilty to.
