Of course, Snuffalopoulous did not point out the irony that Biden himself right here was diverting attention from the original question.
Amazing, too, that this guy is the best the Dems have for president and he supposedly misunderstood a very direct and, frankly, hard to misunderstand question. This guy, not Trump, could get us into a war because he would constantly misunderstand the other side. And, Snuffles did not challenge him on that, either.

Great synopsis of the history of the legal proceedings against Flynn.
Right up to the point where Judge Sullivan did not grant the Govt's motion to dismiss.
Michael Flynn Judge Opens His Court To Litigate Russiagate
Right up to the point where Judge Sullivan did not grant the Govt's motion to dismiss.
" ..... Because Flynn had already pleaded guilty to the offense, Judge Sullivan needed to grant the government’s motion to dismiss the charge before the criminal case could end. Instead, however, Judge Sullivan shocked everyone yesterday afternoon by entering an order allowing outside parties to file “amicus curiae” or “friend of the court” briefs.
“An amicus brief should normally be allowed when a party is not represented competently or is not represented at all,” Judge Sullivan wrote, concluding that “at the appropriate time, the Court will enter a Scheduling Order governing the submission of any amicus curiae briefs”
Instantaneously, a group of attorneys, self-styled the Watergate Prosecutors, filed a notice of an intent to file an amicus brief. Flynn’s attorney responded by both objecting to the Watergate Prosecutors’ notice, and to the court’s broader decision to accept amicus curiae briefs in a criminal case.
It seems likely the Department of Justice will also object to the court’s apparent solicitation of amicus curiae briefs in a criminal case, given that the executive branch holds the sole constitutional authority to determine whether to prosecute a case. It seems equally likely that Judge Sullivan won’t change his mind about his order. However, once the flurry of politically charged briefing starts, the long-time federal judge may find himself regretting his decision."

After first letting out a bunch of child rapists and murderers, they finally agreed to let Paul Manafort serve out the remainder of his sentence in home confinement.
He wasn't due out until ~2024.

I've been saying Graham et al are useless. Parade on Fox News and talk about who should be investigated and we need to look into this and that. Anyone surprised he says they won't question Obama?
Senate Republicans Will NOT Question Barack Obama Over Michael Flynn, Despite Trump Request

Judge Sullivan is deep state, guys. Judge Sullivan appoints third party to 'present arguments' against Flynn, consider holding him in contempt
It’s not like anyone trusts the justice department anymore. They have nothing to lose in trying to bury this. By the way, not a peep on CNN, ABC, NBC or CBS about Comey, Clapper, Brennan or Biden being part of the unmasking of Flynn. It happened on January 12, 2016 and was a feature article for the Washington Post on the same day. The Senate Republicans need to finally do something.
hahaha, now that’s funny.
There is a better chance of Schiff saying he got it all wrong on Trump than there is of Senate Republicans doing anything.

Samantha Power swore under oath that she never sought to unmask Michael Flynn.
However, her name just showed up on a list of Obama officials who unmasked Flynn.
In fact, we now know that she unmasked Flynn at least 7 times?
Why was she doing this?
She was Obama's UN ambassador at the time
What does that job have to do with spying on the private conversations of the incoming new administration's Natl Security Advisor?

I would be curious to learn about the ex-parte communications with Sullivan regarding the Flynn case

So the lists of Obama folks' unmasking requests are finally starting to come out
39 Obama officials who made 53 requests to unmask Mike Flynn’s name from intelligence reports between election day (Nov. 8, 2016) and Jan 31, 2017
How do you explain that?
By way of contrast, Deputy Secretary Richard Armitage at the State Department from 2001-2006 made about ~100 unmasking requests.
Then-Under Secretary of State John Bolton only made 10 such requests
Also. this is only a partial list. Now that we know what they were doing, we need to full list of all unmasking requests made by senior Obama officials during this time period. Why? Because it seems obvious that other Trump campaign and transition officials also were targeted.
This is a story of how the Obama administration weaponized intelligence to undermine and destroy the incoming Trump administration. It was a conspiracy. And it began earlier and was broader than we ever knew.

More on the Flynn unmaskings
There was a "cluster" of Flynn unmasking requests from Joe Biden and others between Jan 7-12, 2017.
This is some interesting timing because on on Jan 5, Biden, Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Rice and Yates all met with Obama.
You might also recall that on January 6, then President-elect Trump received a very misleading and incomplete briefing on the fraudulent Steele Dossier and Russian meddling in the 2016 election by Clapper, Comey, Brennan and the director of the NSA.
So, to summarize, not only do we know that Obama himself was directing these officials to withhold Russia-related intelligence from the incoming Trump Administration but, as should now be obvious to any honest person, the President of the United States was himself knee-deep in these improper unmasking requests on Flynn.

On another sports site I go to I was told that there wasn't anything wrong with unmaskings (the conservatives there are a minority). I just called everybody there a stupid *** and left today. After three years of stupidy on that site I had enough.
