I guess Mueller is a Black Flag fan!

Flynn is going to get on the low end of a range that called for 0 to 6 months for "substantial assistance" which otherwise would have called for .... zero months.

lolz.

Lolz alright. If you stopped for a moment to think about why that is, before smart-mouthing off, you be able to work out for yourself, er, why that is. Mueller has gone to great lengths to say how useful and how timely Flynn's co-operation has been.

Pro-tip: If you think Mueller is talking to the judge when he says all this stuff, you're looking in the wrong place.
 
But, yeah, basically as we expected: Flynn has been meeting with Mueller a lot, and has given him a lot of information he considers useful. Given the extent of the information, Mueller is searching for leniency to send a signal out to the Roger Stones of this world.

If people in Trump's orbit are sensible and intelligent they'll look at the treatment of Flynn by Mueller and look at the treatment of Cohen by Trump and decide that they're better off cooperating than they are in being "loyal" and hoping for a pardon. That's quite a big "if", though.

Your keen legal mind seems to have missed a point: The reason Flynn is only looking at 6 months tops, regardless of Mueller's recommendation, is because that's what the plea deal was: only one offense and assign it the least serious category for sentencing purposes.

Flynn gave Mueller "substantial assistance" (apparently including emails and texts) in his investigation of "coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump campaign" and two other cases. It seems you're trying very hard to not understand what that means for anyone holding "no collusion" shares on predictit.org.

lolz.
 
Serious question:

Parts of the Mueller memo on Flynn are blacked out.
Is that only for the public, or does even the judge not get to read the full text?

The judge definitely gets to read it. It'd be difficult to sign off on it, otherwise.

The judge gets to read the full text. More importantly, the full text is there and out of Mueller's hands, even if Trump fires him and burns the rest tomorrow, and until then serves as a big scary block of maybe-they-got-me for the unindicted conspirators.

IMV, what General Flynn did was despicable. Especially when you consider he was career US military. I'm guessing what he provided was particularly helpful otherwise Mueller wouldn't have given him such a sweetheart deal.

HI! Thanks for the link to the "tweet"!

You don't really say why anyone should waste their time, so I suspect if you will have no problem whatsoever if I point out that no one should bother because your article does not even mention that the range is 0-6 months!

It's only 0-6 months because that's what Mueller let it be in the plea bargain. This has been explained to you ad nauseum. By continuing to ignore this extremely blatant fact you've only shown that you have absolutely no rebuttal to put forth.

The 0-6 ratio is only important to you.
