Where there is conflicting testimony, do not believe the Dems, as they have a long history of treason. Investigations into Obama will show that he lied, kind of like how Hillary lied when she claimed that a video triggered the Benghazi attack (for whatever reason she felt it necessary to lie).
The fix was in.
In February 2020, Attorney General William Barr declared that there would be a review of Flynn's case.[SUP][197][/SUP][SUP][198][/SUP] Barr chose St. Louis' chief federal prosecutor, Jeffrey Jensen, to conduct the review. Jensen himself was nominated by President Trump for the St. Louis position.[SUP][198][/SUP] Trump had publicly called for Flynn's charges to be dropped. In late April or early May, Jensen recommended to Barr that the charges be dropped.[SUP]

On May 7, 2020, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said it would move to drop all charges against Flynn. Jensen said Barr had agreed with his recommendation.[SUP]
[199][/SUP] Per a motion to dismiss filed by
Timothy Shea, the acting U.S. Attorney in D.C., the questioning of Flynn by agents "was untethered to, and unjustified by, the F.B.I.'s counterintelligence investigation into Mr. Flynn".[SUP]
[200][/SUP] Lead DOJ prosecutor Brandon L. Van Grack withdrew from the case, and no DOJ attorneys who had been involved in the case signed on to Shea's motion.[SUP]
[200][/SUP] Van Grack had contended in previous filings that the "topics of sanctions went to the heart of the FBI's counterintelligence investigation," and that "any effort to undermine those sanctions could have been evidence of links or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia."
Sidney Powell, Flynn's attorney, claimed that prosecution filings had been made in "bad faith", and Brady materials had been withheld.[SUP]
[200][/SUP] Judge Sullivan had previously ruled that Flynn's statements were material to the Russia campaign interference inquiry.[SUP]
[200][/SUP] It was left to Sullivan to determine whether to dismiss the charges and also to prevent a retrial on the charges.[SUP]
[200][/SUP] Sullivan had the option of requesting written submissions on the motion and also could determine if additional
Brady disclosure materials that should have been provided to the defense could be added to the record.[SUP]

On May 12, 2020, U.S. District Judge
Emmet G. Sullivan ordered a hold on the Justice Department's intent to drop charges, saying he expects that independent groups and legal experts will wish to intervene. Judge Sullivan said he will set schedules for filing "friend-of-the court" or amicus briefs.[SUP]
