Sidney Powell, who represents General Michael Flynn, is tough as nails and Larry C Johnson calls her a honey badger. How tough are honey badgers?
Watch the following video of a honey badger taking on six lions.
Flynn’s previous lawyers convinced him to plead guilty and to cooperate with Robert Mueller. Not Powell.
When she took over, the first thing she did was to have Flynn change his plea.
Now that she found out that Lisa Page altered the FBI’s 302s on Flynn and lied to investigators on it is looking at some quality time free of charge at a federal facility.
Powell is now calling for the DOJ to drop all charges against Flynn, who has been financially devastated by these bogus charges.
Powell has been trying to file a motion in order to get documents that would then be, but the government balked because Powell had the audacity to name the government officials that abused their power in order to get someone to flip.
The problem they had was that the president committed no crime; therefore, no one was able to flip.
Mr. Flynn filed his Reply to the Government’s Opposition to the Motion to Compel by noon on October 22, 2019, completely under seal because of its minimal references to materials produced under the Protective Order. The defense expected it could quickly resolve the issue with government counsel given the government’s previous redactions of the Motion to Compel.
We advised the prosecution on Saturday, October 19, 2019, of every document the defense intended to cite that was produced under the Protective Order and requested the government approve them to be unsealed. Shortly after filing the Reply yesterday, counsel for Mr. Flynn sent the government a copy of the brief with light redactions that mirrored those redactions the government made in the original Motion to Compel. Counsel requested that the government propose any further redactions so the brief could be quickly filed for the public—preferably by the close of business on October 22. Ex. 1.
The government replied that it “would request more redactions beyond” what the defense proposed, but it provided no reason whatsoever. Given that the government has not provided defense counsel any classified information, this seems inexplicable. The defense also requested that the government promptly provide a copy with all its requested redactions, and it has not. The proposed redacted Reply the defense attaches here under seal includes redactions of the names the government previously redacted and all quotations of any material covered by the Protective Order.1
