(11,704 posts)4. Knew this would happen
as soon as that fucking piece of shit Barr was appointed.
I know there's a lot of shit going on, but wasn't Flynn the one who the judge asked why he wasn't facing treason charges, or was that one of the other tRump criminals?
Also, could a future non-corrupt AG re-file the charges? Assuming, of course, Barr doesn't just destroy all the evidence.

The judge has control of the case and the defendant has plead guilty. The Justice Department can ask the judge to end the case but cant directly release the defendant.
