      1. Worth asking why the judge was so hard-ass against Flynn. https://newrepublic.com/minutes/152746/judge-michael-flynn-arguably-sold-country-out …

      2. Flynn & his lawyers have been playing a double game: to keep out of prison he's been co-operating with Mueller & pled guilty but to keep wing-nut donations coming in (to pay legal bill) he's pretended he's victim of Deep State conspiracy.

      3. Thing is you can't play the game of pleading guilty while also suggesting you are innocent to your supporters. Justice system wants not just conviction but something more: an admission of guilt that is bone-deep.

      4. This is something Foucault was good on: that pre-modern justice extracted an external price (lashes, torture) but modern justice wants an internal levy: the defendant has to show contrition and full acceptance of the justice of the system.

      5. With George Papadopoulos as well, there's a tension between serving two masters, the legal system that wants submission & the Fox/InfoWars/QAnon audience that wants conspiracy theories. I think this tension will recur in future Trump trials.

          Could it be that the judge is reacting to what's behind the redactions in Mueller's sentencing memo?

          7. If there is an unknown out there, I suspect it relates to Turkey, not Russia. Special counsel prosecutor Van Grack admitted that Flynn vulnerable on Turkish stuff.

          I tweeted this our earlier but Judge Emmet Sullivan 1) has a history of being hard-ass on government officials who violate public trust and 2) is a product of DC public schools, Howard undergrad and Howard law.

          His twitter is my favourite Season 2! His Qanon congressional run plus all of his crime-ing is going to be the best (except for the very real danger of people being hurt). I want to pitch it to Netflix so very badly.
