In a stunning move, the Department of Justice dropped its case against General Michael Flynn.
The Government has determined, pursuant to the Principles of Federal Prosecution and based on an extensive review and careful consideration of the circumstances, that continued prosecution of this case would not serve the interests of justice.
Attorney General William Barr explained why the Department of Justice dropped its criminal case against General Michael Flynn in an interview with Catherine Herridge, CBS investigative reporter.
When asked why the case was dropped, Barr explained the nature of the FBI’s investigation of Flynn. The DOJ found that the January 24th, 2017 interview with General Flynn was “unjustified” and done without any “legitimate” investigative basis.
…the Government has concluded that the interview of Mr. Flynn was untethered to, and unjustified by, the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation into Mr. Flynn—a no longer justifiably predicated investigation that the FBI had, in the Bureau’s own words, prepared to close because it had yielded an “absence of any derogatory information.” Ex. 1 at 4,FBI FD-1057 “Closing Communication” Jan. 4, 2017 (emphases added). The Government is not persuaded that the January 24, 2017 interview was conducted with a legitimate investigative basis and therefore does not believe Mr. Flynn’s statements were material even if untrue. Moreover, we (do) not believe that the Government can prove either the relevant false statements or their materiality beyond a reasonable doubt.
Barr was even more specific in describing the January 24th interview of Flynn, calling it a “perjury trap,” which is what Flynn’s attorney Sidney Powell argued while seeking to have the case against her client dropped.
Dems and MSM argue that Flynn confessed and must be guilty
If you have watched any mainstream media on the Flynn case, you will hear, “but he confessed to lying! therefore he is guilty and Barr is just a Trump toady!” But the truth is that the FBI laid a perjury trap. Flynn was asked a question which he answered tentatively, and James Comey charged him with lying because the FBI already had him under surveillance and had listened to the conversation they asked Flynn about.
They forced a confession from him by threatening his son. Forced confessions are something that totalitarians use to get rid of political enemies. The truth is that the mainstream media are guilty of being DNC toadies.
When Herridge asked what Americans should “take away” from this new development, Barr said he was worried that the American people see two standards of justice, and that federal law enforcement is being used to play political games.
Barr understands what plenty of Americans have been thinking. So far, there have been two standards of justice, as people like General Flynn, Carter Page, and Roger Stone are financially ruined if federal law enforcement targets them for political reasons, but law enforcement officials like James Comey, Peter Strzok, and Andrew McCabe seem to be above the law and run free and grow rich even when they admit that they lied, in some cases, under oath.
Encouragingly, Barr also said that the Flynn incident is just one of many related acts forming a pattern that the DOJ is investigating as a whole. Hopefully, they will get this work done before November.
“Even though something stinks to high heaven…we have to be able to prove things beyond a reasonable doubt.” Attorney General Barr
Hopefully, the exoneration of General Flynn is the first step in a return to one standard of justice in this country. The next steps will be bringing the lawless “law enforcement” officials that ruined his life to justice.

Again, MSM and Obama’s crew thinks justice works only for their side and everyone else is guilty.
What a bunch of crock that last administration was, from top down.
your Honor! Please continue to clear this and try to see that the FBI etc involved will pay a severe price for this CRIME ! Thank you!!
Mr. Barr, please PLEASE throw the book at all of the corrupt dems. We, the American people don’t want to pay their salaries anymore.
Amen!
I hope that general Flynn and his family get to sue the entire group of thigs fot all they are worth, starting with obima. The thugs should be tried forctreason against the USA. Wray needs to go and the FBI and DOJ, CIA need to be cleaned up from the top.
There are still many disturbing loose ends related to the Flynn trial. We know some of the evildoers at the FBI, such as Comey, McCabe, Strzok and Page, but the lack of whistleblowers among any of the lower echelons means that nearly the entire FBI was complicit. Flynn hired lawyers from Covington & Burling, a formerly well-respected DC Law Firm, but they went to the dark side and were in cahoots with the evil FBI agents and lawless Lawyers at the DOJ. Again, the absence of whistleblowers among the rank-and-file of C&B and the DOJ means that C & B as an enterprise and the DOJ as an Agency were complicit. If what was done to Gen. Flynn was a crime, then C & B needs to be banned from accepting or performing any Government business for a substantial number of years, and everyone at both the FBI and the DOJ who were even tangentially connected with the Flynn case must also be removed from government service.
Most of my life I heard about how corrupt some countries. During the last few years, I have decided those other “corrupt” countries are amateurs compared to some politicians in the USA. What a shameful time to be an American.
Get it Berry and company, your time in the sun is fast approaching. Sleep well !!!
I’ve said for years that Obama would go down in history as the worst president in our history…..IF we can get those who served him to tell the truth. It will take just ONE to turn on him…….just one. If we can not convince one to turn……then Obama will be another liberal democrat in a long list that defies the arms of justice. This must be stopped…..NOW.
i hope ag barr proves all of those involved no matter who they are or how high their office [ guilty ] and demand they pay for their crimes to the full extent of the law. [ long overdue ]
Flynn only pled guilty because he went bankrupt from paying lawyers fees, lost his house from paying those fees, and when he refused to stop fighting for his innocence the Muleturd threatened his family. The left used blackmail to force him to plead guilty. Hang all of them.
I did not think General Flynn was guilty from the start. Is he going be reimbursed for all it cost him to defend himself from all the false charges and defense charges. The ones who made the false charges should pay all him expenses for his defense and money it cost him!!!
My faith in the system will be completely restored when I see charges brought against all the ones who have been breaking the law and committing treasonous acts
My hats off to General Flynn’s new attorney, Sidney Powell for all he did to turn the tide against the corrupt FBI and DOJ (at the time). But your work is not done. Time to sue all the enemies.
The right thing to do. Now how can we get his life and money back.
There needs to be a law that requires the govt. to repay this man for what they did to him. Exposing Obama and his minions for what they are is good for the country. The reverence Obama has received is NOT deserved. His wife is no different.
Go get them Bill, let justice be done.
Mr. Barr don’t stop now, charge everyone involved. While you are at it charge Schitt as well.
Proving beyond a reasonable doubt looks pretty easy from where we sit….but actually doing so in a court where you have defense attorneys countering the offense…not so easy! I am praying, nevertheless, that the proof of corruption will be brought to light so much so, that even those who have been blind for so long will see it. Maybe after exposure and prosecution, there will finally be peace in the valley. Prayers that AG Barr and Durham will get ‘er done! And soon!
WE NEED TO MAKE ALL THE CROOKS IN FBI, SENATE, AND ETC TO PAY BACK THE TAX MONEY THEY HAVE SPENT OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS TRYING TO HANG NOT GUILTY PEOPLE. AND IMPEACH THE PRESIDENT. I BET IF YOU MAKE EACH ONE OF THEM FORK OVER THEIR SHARE OF MONEY THEY HAVE STOLE FROM THE GOV. IT WOULD REALLY GET THEM STRAIGHT. AND PUT THEM IN THE PEN, THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO BE KILLED DUE TO THE TYRANNY AGAINST THE USA.
