John Solomon of Just the News revealed today that the Justice Department’s Acting U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin on Tuesday presented a court filing to U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan today. It is a single page of notes from ex-agent Peter Strzok that the DOJ says are “highly exculpatory” of General Michael Flynn.
The content of the notes is under a protective order.
The Justice Department believes the notes were taken in early January, possibly between January 3 and 5. There may be more documents coming.
Solomon writes: A source directly familiar with the discovery of the document told Just the News they include one paragraph of notes believed to be taken around Jan. 4, 2017, the date Strzok relayed a request from FBI leadership to the lead agent in the Flynn case asking him not to shut down the investigation as had been planned. The notes are “highly exculpatory,” the source said, declining to describe them more fully because they are under seal.
The Justice Department in April unsealed handwritten notes revealing the FBI framed General Flynn. They planned to get Flynn removed by getting Flynn “to admit to breaking the Logan Act” or catch Flynn in a lie. The end goal was a referral to the DOJ.
Just in on Fox news…..Appeals court drops case against Flynn, great news !!!!!
This again exposes the DOJ, that is Barr’s DOJ, as having obstructed justice by withholding information from the court. All of this evidence, and more, has been in DOJ possession the entire 3 years. Barr is Wray’s boss, neither has any excuse for this. This irrational judge had demanded all exculpatory evidence be given to the court 2 years ago. Since then, he has reversed his position and gone after Flynn. I place the judge and the DOJ in the same category, with incredibly irresponsible, unethical behavior.
You can’t blame Barr for withholding this. Remember Sessions was AG prior to Barr. If anything It is Barr who is exposing the corruption in the DOJ that has permeated in there for years.
“The Justice Department believes the notes were taken in early January, possibly between January 3 and 5”
No year was given but the sentence, “A source directly familiar with the discovery of the document told Just the News they include one paragraph of notes believed to be taken around Jan. 4, 2017…” makes us understand the whole disgusting set up was before Trump was inaugurated meaning this was still the Obama Administration and Loretta Lynch was the AG.
we the people need to see them !!!!!
