Has the Michael Flynn judge said anything about

[NewJeffCT]

the DOJ not releasing the transcript of the Flynn/Kislyak call?

Friday was the deadline, so I would assume that he'll have some sort of comment today?

4. K & R...for visibility...

It's hard to keep this kind of shit in the news cycle when it is so dominated with Trump trash.

[NewJeffCT]

6. The trash is how he keeps going, though

During the 2016 primaries and presidential campaign, it was a new scandal or outrage or three every day with Trump... however, today's scandals or unhinged statements/tweets made most people forget about yesterday's scandals and outrages, and the scandals from before yesterday were old news already. And, last week? Forget about it - that seemed like a lifetime ago.

Contrast that with Hillary Clinton who had the conflated and overblown email/server scandal and that was about it.

But, in the eyes of the media and many in the public - Hillary's one scandal was equal to all the trash, detritus and BS from Team Trump. And, when Jason Chaffetz illegally leaked the Comey letter, the Hillary scandal was suddenly bigger than everything that had come before it.

expect more of the same from the media and Trump in 2020.

16. Judge OK without public release of Flynn-Kislyak transcript

A federal judge reversed course on Tuesday and absolved the Justice Department of a demand to make public transcripts of recorded phone calls between former national security adviser Michael Flynn and a Russian official.

In a one-paragraph order, U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan said he accepted the argument recently made from federal prosecutors who defied his earlier request to release any recordings from December 2016 between Flynn and Sergey Kislyak, who at the time was the Russian ambassador to the U.S.

Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 for lying to the FBI about his conversations with Kislyak, and the general contours of what they discussed are described in the redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report released in May. That includes Flynn asking for Russia not to escalate tensions between the two countries after the outgoing Obama administration-imposed sanctions for Kremlin-orchestrated interference in the 2016 election.

But a full transcript of the Flynn-Kislyak calls remains under wraps, and Sullivan last month ordered Mueller’s prosecutors to place the material on the public docket. The judge, an appointee of President Bill Clinton, also asked for the public release of an unredacted version of the Mueller report with any other blacked-out information tied to the Flynn case.
