http://www.foxnews.com/politic...ntencing-delays.html Both sides in the special counsel’s case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn are staying tight-lipped after a judge demanded information about why Flynn’s sentencing is once again being delayed. In a joint Monday court filing, Mueller and Flynn’s lawyers only replied that they are not “ready for sentencing.” But responding to that filing, U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan late Monday ordered a July 10 hearing over the delays. Mueller’s team on Friday once again delayed sentencing Flynn, marking the third time sentencing has been postponed. Mueller for months has vaguely cited “the status of the Special Counsel’s investigation” for not offering a suggested sentencing date. Over the weekend, Sullivan said the delays have forced the court to change its procedures in a presentence investigation. The judge demanded “reasons why the Court should expend the Probation Office's resources and depart from the Court's usual practice of ordering a presentence report, scheduling a sentencing date, and establishing a sentencing briefing schedule at the same time.” The joint filing from Mueller and Flynn’s lawyers didn’t offer specifics – but said “the parties will notify the court as soon as the matter is ready to be scheduled for a sentencing hearing.” They asked Sullivan to begin the pre-sentence process, but that no specific sentencing date should be made. The parties have asked to update the court Aug. 24. | |||

It’s becoming confusing with all these related threads. I posted the docket entry on Friday regsrding the minute order Judge Sullivan entered demanding response today which your post above describes. It is in the Trump Presidency thread posted Friday night at 9:21 local, as it is dealing with the Flynn case, not the IG case or the dossier proceedings. Is there a better way to minimize confusion? Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

There are so many players it is vey hard to keep everything in focus. No easy answers here. But here is a link to a large list of players and a short description of their role. At least if you read a name and can't figure out who it is, this could be a reference. https://themarketswork.com/201...ing-of-participants/ (the list is long) | |||

Good. https://www.washingtonpost.com...m_term=.026f8f5a4d9e The FBI has fired Agent Peter Strzok, who helped lead the bureau’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election until officials discovered he had been sending anti-Trump texts. Aitan Goelman, Strzok’s lawyer, said FBI Deputy Director David L. Bowdich ordered the firing on Friday — even though the director of the FBI office that normally handles employee discipline had decided Strzok should face only a demotion and 60-day suspension . how stupid / corrupt can these people be ? At least Bowdich did the right thing. Hard to believe Bowdich would act w/o getting approval from Dir Wray Goelman said the move undercuts the FBI’s repeated assurances that Strzok would be afforded the normal disciplinary process. “This isn’t the normal process in any way more than name,” Goelman said. The FBI declined to comment. The termination marks a remarkable downfall for Strzok, a 22-year veteran of the bureau who investigated Russian spies, defense officials accused of selling secrets to China and myriad other important cases. In the twilight of his career, Strzok was integral to two of the bureau’s most high-profile investigations: the Russia case, and the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while secretary of state. Strzok was escorted out of the FBI building in June and effectively relieved of work responsibilities, though he technically remained an FBI employee as he and his attorney challenged the effort to dismiss him. On July 24, they made a final pitch to Candice M. Will, who leads the FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility. Goelman said Will ultimately decided that Strzok face a demotion and 60-day suspension and be subjected to a “last chance agreement.” That would have put him on thin ice if he were commit another offense. But Goelman said Bowdich overruled that decision and ordered Strzok’s termination. last chance ? to a man who ruined the reputation of the FBI and tried to overtrun the 2016 election ? Candice Will should be fired also | |||

Peter Strzok Officially Fired! Embattled Agent Peter Strzok FIRED By The FBI Strzok was at the center of allegations that the FBI specifically targeted Donald Trump. Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images ByEMILY ZANOTTI August 13, 2018 6.4k views The FBI has fired embattled agent Peter Strzok over a series of anti-Trump texts sent in the midst of his work on Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russian officials to sway the 2016 Presidential election. The Washington Post was the first to report that FBI Deputy Director David L. Bowdich ordered Strzok fired on Friday, overruling a more junior FBI deputy director who recommended Strzok be demoted and suspended for 60 days for his anti-Trump texts. Strzok, of course, was a 22-year veteran of the FBI, and a lead investigator on two crucial cases: an FBI probe into Hillary Clinton's use of a private server and a private email address during her time as Secretary of State, and the all-important Mueller investigation. But last summer, an internal investigation by the FBI's inspector general revealed that Strzok had been exchanging "politically charged" text messages with his lover, an FBI attorney. Those messages revealed that Strzok, and his girlfriend, were virulently opposed to the candidacy of now-President Donald Trump, and, according to the IG, were willing to take aggressive action to "hurt Trump's electoral prospects." When he found out, Mueller booted Strzok from his team, but the Russia investigation was already tarnished. Conservatives, concerned that Mueller's probe was dragging on with no end in sight -- and, after a year, no evidence the Trump team colluded at all with Russian nationals in the course of the 2016 election cycle -- felt Strzok's presence on the team belied the probe's true purpose: to de-legitimize Trump's victory and mar his first term as President. Strzok was technically dismissed back in June, pending an investigation by the FBI's internal disciplinary arm, but Friday's decision is permanent. https://www.dailywire.com/news...ed-fbi-emily-zanotti _________________________ | |||

Well... about time! Clinton and Kaine lost despite legions of corporations, media outlets, and people in- and outside government aiding and abetting the greatest election fraud in America's history. Comey, McCabe, and Strzok were fired for various forms of professional malfeasance related to attempting to defraud the American people, first to get Clinton elected followed by efforts to undermine president Trump's election and administration. Page resigned with her personal and professional reputation ruined. Brennan was dismissed because he is a slimy son of a bitch and a political appointee put in the office by a fellow Muslim apologist. Here is hoping Mueller, Rosenstein, Sessions, and Wray are next, followed by every DOJ and FBI political appointee or SES in any even remote way associated with any of the above named people.

Today is the 60th day since Strzok was suspended, demoted, relieved on June 15. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

background on David Bowdich https://www.washingtonpost.com...m_term=.3bf9a01b8275 The Albuquerque native graduated from New Mexico State University in 1991. He worked as an officer with the Albuquerque Police Department from 1991 to 1995, patrolling the Southeast and North Valley area commands Bowdich joined the FBI in 1995 as a special agent and served as a SWAT team member and sniper at the agency’s San Diego field office One of his investigations included a year-long wiretap that resulted in the first federal criminal racketeering convictions brought against a street gang in Southern California, according to FBI officials. In 2005, he started leading a multiagency gang task force that through undercover operations and wiretaps investigated drug and racketeering cases against the Mexican Mafia, Bloods and Crips gangs and the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, FBI officials said. In 2009, Bowdich became the assistant special agent in charge of the bureau’s San Diego office. In that role, he identified the emerging kidnapping trend of Mexican cartel-related groups and, in response, created the country’s first FBI squad to pinpoint kidnapping threats on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border. That squad brought cases against 43 cartel members and associates who ran multiple kidnapping cells in the San Diego area, according to FBI officials. Bowdich also oversaw the investigation of the deaths of two U.S. Border Patrol agents killed in the line of duty. In 2014, he was named the assistant director in charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles field office After the December 2015 terrorist attack in San Bernardino that killed 14 people and wounded 22 others, Bowdich asked the public at a January 2016 news conference for help in figuring out whether the husband and wife behind the attack — Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik — had communicated with anyone after the shooting. An 18-minute period after the shooting, from 12:59 p.m. to 1:17 p.m., puzzled investigators, who wondered if Farook and Malik went to a home or business or contacted anyone else. Using traffic cameras, surveillance footage and witness accounts, Bowdich and investigators had already pieced together what Farook and Malik were doing in the four hours before the shooting, The Post’s Mark Berman reported at the time. And investigators knew that about 45 minutes after the shooting the couple visited the city’s Lake Seccombe. Divers were dispatched into the water to see what they could recover, but none of the items they found appeared to be relevant to the investigation, the FBI said. “Eliot Ness’ character was unyielding, tenacious, principled,” he told the Times’s Morrison. “That describes what a law enforcement professional should be.” | |||
