Michael Flynn's sentencing back on hold, again

[HAB911]

The criminal sentencing of President Donald Trump’s first national security advisor Michael Flynn will be on hold for at least another two months, a federal judge said Monday during a status conference hearing in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.

Judge Emmet Sullivan told Flynn’s new lawyer and prosecutors that they should let him know by Aug. 31 whether they are ready for Flynn to be sentenced for his admitted crime of lying to the FBI about the nature of his discussions with Russia’s then-ambassador to the United States, Sergey Kislyak, in the weeks before Trump’s inauguration.

Sullivan told the parties to file their next status report by that date. Flynn’s new lawyer, Sidney Powell, had wanted three months to get up to speed in the case by reviewing what she called a “massive” amount of material turned over by prosecutors.

1. I can't fathom everything that

must be happening with this case. I guess his new cra-cra attorney is still proclaiming his complete innocence.

2. IMO they're playing for time.

While Flynn's new attorney (Faux blabber) 'gets up to speed' they can continue to stress to all the Deplorables how Flynn is a 'victim', in spite of being a criminal. When Faux and Sinclair have whipped up enough support from Dumpy's base he will the go ahead and pardon Flynn.
