The DOJ Can Run, but It Can’t Hide From Gen. Michael Flynn

May 31, 2023
Six years ago, senior U.S. spies framed Gen. Michael Flynn, a combat veteran with over three decades in uniform, as a Russian spy. Even after he was forced out of the White House, corrupt prosecutors continued to hound him and his family. And when the DOJ finally relented, a federal judge upended the Constitution to go after the man—and now Flynn means to hold the government accountable in court. In this hard-hitting episode of Over the Target, Lee Smith speaks with Flynn’s lawyer Jesse Binnall about the upcoming trial that has the DOJ running for cover. 02:43: DOJ wants to transfer Flynn trial from Florida to D.C. 06:05: Why the Flynn case need should stay in Florida 07:59: Misconduct of federal judge in the Flynn Case 11:58: Judge Emmet Sullivan ignored separation of powers 14:40: Flaws in justice system visible in DOJ fake case against Flynn 20:15: Flynn suing DOJ and FBI $50 million for malicious prosecution
