I'm looking forward to it.

The 302 the FBI used to extract a plea from Michael Flynn contradicted the notes of the interviewing agents, was secretly edited by Lisa Page and backdated, and was concealed from Flynn’s legal team for years.
I don't think this will go the way you anticipate.

Maybe this will help put things in context for you

I don't read her writing. She, among others, pushed the Russia conspiracy to the point where she just isn't credible.
You try reading this to see just how dirty the prosecutors were in this case: https://thefederalist.com/2019/10/25/sidney-powell-drops-bombshell-showing-how-the-fbi-trapped-michael-flynn/#.XbMA5c_k-4Q.twitter

The FBI didn't trap Flynn. They offered him a generous plea deal of pleading guilty to a lesser crime in exchange for not being charged with greater crimes, and cooperation. Flynn chose to plead guilty to lying to the FBI.

Have you never seen Law and Order? Don't you know what a plea deal is?

Margot Cleveland? I'd call her the female John Solomon, but I think Mollie Hemingway has that one locked up.

BTW, do we know yet who funds The Federalist?

This made me LOL.

Understand how laughable the administration's conspiracy theory is. Obama and the FBI spied on Trump and investigated fake crimes, but then waited, let him win, and didn't release anything until after the election?

Rather than simply dismiss it as "not credible" how about take the actual words and show where she is wrong or unfactual.

"No, no he's not. We'll stop it" -- Peter Stzrok, FBI agent who opened the Russia interference investigation.

According to some who were involved in the original investigation and this new one, the focus is more on procedural decisions. Not about Stzrok's dumb texts. Notwithstanding Powell and her terrible lawyering.

Flynn’s case should be dismissed. This is outrageous and shows how corrupt the whole thing is

Great! Then his court martial can begin. They've been waiting patiently for a long time now.

Of course, what could be wrong with acting as NSA while on Turkey’s payroll?

And what exactly did he do to stop Trump? He opened a secret investigation and forget to tell anyone about until after the election. He had lots of salacious dirt from the Steele memo but he released NONE of it publicly until Buzzfeed published it after the election. He got 17 IC agencies to conclude that Russia interfered in the election but kept them from telling anyone until after the election.

That's the worst insurance policy in the world.

They didn't think he was going to win. They thought Hillary was going to win. The insurance policy was trying to come up with something to impeach him on, in case he did win. That's why one of the texts said "I'm afraid we can't take that chance".

That doesn't even make sense.

It makes TOTAL sense in La La Land. The dancing frogs can explain it best. Just hum "It's a small world" and they will speak to you.

It makes a lot more sense than Stzrok and Page's explanations.
