DoJ continues: it's not true that the DoJ would operate corruptly. The US Attorneys office to decision to dismiss this case was the right call. We are unafraid to address the specifics as to why we want it dismissed.

In our judgement there isn't a case. As the court knows, once the government finds evidence of wrongdoing, we must do a proper investigation. AG asked Jensen to do a review. The FBI is looking into it, too. It's a continuing review. Some things have been found...

Including the case agent Barnett ws working on the flynn caase when it was realized flynn talked to Kislyak. That call didn't change his assessment that flynn was compromised by russia. He briefed SCO that there was no crime, and he observed the flynn case was used to "get trump"

Those accusation alone would be game over for the prosecution. Notes discovered at DoJ show the SCO met with DoJ and observed that flynn had a bad memory. That's consistent with his claims of innocence

Plus we now have the HPSCI transcript of Comey's testimony where he said he didn't know if flynn lied. When the director says he doesnt know flynn lied, thats a problem for the government. We don't just throw eviden on the wall to see what sticks

The agents left the interview and said they couldn't tell if he was lying. Finally, we have to prove the case with witnesses. There's no recording of what flynn said so its the testimony of the agents. SULLIVAN: Wait, are you saying there's no recording of what flynn said?

There's no recording of the FBI interview. it's the FBI's recollection. (interesting, Sullivan must be referring to the Flynn/kislyak call recordings, lol). DoJ continues: it's just the word of the FBI agents.

And strzok said that this was an insurance policy that trump wouldn't be elected and the next day he opened the investigation. And he misleaded [sic] the government. And he and andy mccabe were fired. So all our witnesses have been fired and had findings by IG for lying...
