Finally the man can breath a sigh of relief. What a travesty that "case" was, first they set him up(declassified hand written notes proved their corrupt intent), then used the full weight of the federal government to bankrupt him. Then they went after his son before the good general finally said uncle. What a national disgrace..

It was nice that it's right before Thanksgiving, too. He deserves a good turkey day!

And lefties are up in arms about it. God, I hate the fact that I hate so many of my fellow countrymen but they leave me no choice. The Pravda loving totalitarians on the left disgust me.

I'm sorry it's not entirely related to your comment, but your reference to Pravda makes me happy. Since Faux News has cucked, the mainstream media in our country has become Pravda.

Also, remember this quote. "Forgive them lord, for they know not what they do".

ironically, Pravda is much more truthful nowadays than NYT, WAPO etc.

That passage is to teach us to offer people second chances. It doesn’t mean you’re supposed to act submissively and forgive someone that continually offends against you. You’re only supposed to forgive them after they’ve changed their negative ways.

Except the problem with that is they know EXACTLY what they are doing.

…for they know not what they do.”

IIRC?

That’s the beauty of doing it today. This news will absolutely ruin Thanksgiving for a lot of the most brainwashed slaves.

Horrible that it came to needing to pardon him though. Would be so much better to be vindicated in Court.

I think he was vindicated in court.

Trying to think of another time that the DOJ dropped charges and a superior court told a judge to drop a case, and the judge instead takes a few months to ponder whether he should entertain a bevy of amicus briefs from unrelated third parties.

The prosecution DROPPED the case, and yet the Judge refused to let the case go. It was ridiculous. About time

Yup. This is about timing, we're all thinking. Something's up.

Agree. But enough is enough. Let the man out of the cage.

It’s a good question. No, he wasn’t convicted - in fact, the charges were dropped! And since accepting a pardon includes admission of guilt, not sure how this will play out.

Not a lawyer but I don’t think you’re right there, the last part anyway. A pardon isn’t an admission of guilt. It’s a way for the President to officially confirm that the charges against you held no water, as in ‘no crime was committed here by this person’.

Yeah I don’t know, I’m not a legal scholar lol.

There’s this, but 🤷‍♂️

No. The president can pardon anyone even before any legal proceedings begin. Conviction is not required. See Nixon being pardoned by Ford for Watergate.

Redpill: You are correct. Technically, there can be past stuff which is unknown, that the pardon is good for.

Past Fake-Deepstate Coup POTUS like G. Ford did this, and others too, but it's not Constitutional.

POTUS has the power to stop all DOJ stuff of ongoing charges, but in Flynns case it's the illegal actions by the judge which was preventing things from being finished.

The correct final Constitutional action would be for congress to impeach the judge, and have judge removed; for violating the US Constitution, in this matter.

Also, cleaning up the USCode so unconstitutional nonsense, like "perjury" can no longer be "used" by the non-Judicial Branches of government.

Can you help a pede out with what happened with the case? I don't know much about this and I feel if I search it will be biased garbage. I trust more what I read here than anywhere else.

Total con job.

Gen. Flynn is the reason the Logan Act got memed so hard. But he wasn’t charged with offenses related to that Act: instead the Feds arrested him and interrogated him about potential breaches of the Logan Act. He did nothing wrong so Flynn didn’t take that interrogation seriously. And the Feds caught him up in a lie. And that’s what he got charged with, lying to a Fed and interfering with their investigation.

Even though the Feds know that that investigation was spurious and unconstitutional because he literally broke no laws so they had absolutely no reason to interrogate him.

Thanks for taking the time. I couldn't seem to find this anywhere. I even looked on OANN and the article didn't seem to paint the picture properly, either. Article was written like CNN lite.

overtotheright 2 points ago +2 / -0

I’m not a lawyer so there may be more nuance there, to be fair. But that’s the gist of it as far as I remember anyway.

Sad to hear that even OANN aren’t explaining the details properly.

Doesn't it suck that you initially have the urge to Google something to learn but then obviously realize it will be leftist biased opinion pieces disguised as articles?

nedkelly 2 points ago +2 / -0

Yep, any topic I search for I'm bombarded with leftist gaslighting, its a nightmare and continues to radicalize myself and others everyday against the left wing establishment cucks.

He tweeted Jeremiah 1:19 - "They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD."
