(CNN)Special counsel Robert Mueller's office is still working with former national security adviser Michael Flynn, according to a status report before his sentencing Friday.
"Due to the status of the Special Counsel's investigation, the parties do not believe this matter is ready to be scheduled at this time," the filing said.
They asked for another two months before they must update the court again.
This is the third time the lawyers asked to delay Flynn's sentencing. Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to investigators in December and is cooperating with the investigation into Russian interference in the election. He has not been sentenced.

*sigh*.... this is the line that really makes me sad "They asked for another two months before they must update the court again."

Two months............. meaning Mueller must figure he still has at least that much more investigating to do and working with Flynn.........

1. Thorough Investigations Take Time, Especially of this Depth and Breadth

That's why Republicans are screaming for Mueller to hurry up and finish.

4. That's my thinking.

6. Sounds like good news to me

Mueller must still have work for Flynn to do.
Mueller knows what he is doing.

7. This Is Good News In Two Different Ways

First, it means that he's getting so much good, useful information out of Flynn, that he's not quite done with him yet. Remember, Flynn knows a lot about the Trump campaign's foreign contacts (particularly the Russian ones). If Mueller is STILL chasing down the leads Flynn has provided, it means there's A LOT of information to be had. Like I've been saying for a long time now, I want this report to be SO thorough and SO damning, and containing SUCH a mountain of evidence, that it will leave no doubt whatsoever to ANYONE with a shred of integrity (translation: everyone EXCEPT the 30% of sycophants who would follow Trump over the edge of a cliff) that he's guilty as sin. And an informant with no more useful information is of no more use. So we should see this as a sign that he's BURYING Trump under a mountain of information.

Second, it means that his report is likely to come out right when we want it to (around October).
