Gov says the decision to proceed to sentencing is based on the totality of Flynn's assistance. Has already provided “vast majority” of his potential cooperation. Highlights indictment unsealed yesterday against Flynn’s business partner.

Judge Sullivan: So Flynn could’ve also been charged in that indictment unsealed in Virginia yesterday, right? Gov: Yes.

Judge Sullivan: “Exposure to Mr. Flynn would have been significant?” Gov: Yes.

Judge Sullivan:

“This crime is very serious. In the White House! In the West Wing! It’s a very serious offense. You can’t minimize that"

Judge Sullivan to Michael Flynn: “Arguably, you sold your country out."

Judge Sullivan: “I’m not hiding my disgust, my distain for this criminal offense. I can’t guarantee you are going to avoid incarceration. Why don't you speak to your attorneys again."

Judge Sullivan is now asking government if Flynn could have been charged under the Logan Act, or if there are any other charges that Flynn could have faced.

Judge Sullivan even asked the government whether Flynn could have been charged with treason for interfering in Russian sanctions imposed by Obama administration. Government didn’t want to go there.

They’re now taking a recess until 12:30, at Flynn’s request.

Could you imagine all the Logan Act charges the government would have the opportunity to pursue if Mueller went down this avenue? After Flynn they can start with John Kerry.

Dude. I don’t know if boozie is a PD or not....but there is nothing wrong with it. As a former prosecutor, I can say there are some fine lawyers and litigators that are PDs. Like prosecution, you can’t make any money doing it long-term....so most good litigators move on after a few years. But ragging on someone for getting a law degree, passing the bar, and representing indigent defendants is pretty silly.

I’m not a PD, but I just let him run with it because it’s his thing.

I agree that there are really good PDs out there, especially in the federal system.

That’s just his go-to ad hom for me.

Sounds like the judge wants him to change his plea.

So what will Mueller recommend the next time? "Judge, I strenuously suggest Mr. Flynn not serve any time."

Two years is a lot of ratting.

How many times did the judge ask him did he want to change his plea?

We don’t know what the judge wanted. He was all over the place.

He asked him if he thought he was entrapped

Flynn said no

He asked him if he lied to the FBI

Flynn said yes

I think that discussion was over after that

Judge implied that he was going to jail, or he could continue to cooperate

Why is the judge asking the prosecution if Flynn broke the law?
