I think it's great that Trump has appointed numerous new judges

But that still leaves us with the problem of what to do about transparent political hacks like Judge Emmett G. Sullivan (and the 'G' stands for Godawful).
The judge presiding over the case of Michael Flynn has delayed any decision on whether to grant the Justice Department’s motion of May 7 to drop the case against the former national security adviser and ally of President Donald Trump.

Emmet G. Sullivan, a district judge in Washington, on Tuesday, May 11, issued an order saying he’ll soon accept “amicus curiae,” or “friend of the court” submissions, in the case of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn. Sullivan had previously refused to hear any amicus briefs in the case against Flynn, and this decision to not drop the case comes after Democrats criticized the DOJ last week for doing so.

Sullivan has indicated he will set a schedule to accept briefs from those who may have an interest in the case. “[A]t the appropriate time, the Court will enter a Scheduling Order governing the submission of any amicus curiae briefs,” Sullivan wrote in an order posted Tuesday afternoon. He said that “given the posture of the case” he expects there will be many outside parties wanting to have their say.

The counsel for Flynn was quick to reply, “A criminal case is a dispute between the United States and a criminal defendant,” Flynn defense lawyer Sidney Powell and her co-counsel wrote in a court filing later Tuesday. “There is no place for third parties to meddle in the dispute, and certainly not to usurp the role of the government’s counsel.”
Longest-running coup attempt in history. Even though the central plan has collapsed, with the on-going revelation of complete and total mendacity on the part of the coup participants, topped off with clear evidence of criminal behavior, the political fabric is still shot through with the machinations of these pathetic little second and third-tier Democrat commissars. God save the Republic (because, God knows, the Lindsey Grahams and the Mitt Romneys and the Vichy media "conservatives" sure aren't going to).



"Well, as I always say, if you cannot beat them, join them, yes?"

Judge Sullivan is daring the SCOTUS to challenge him. If you think the 9-0 bitchslap the SCOTUS gave that 9th Circus appellate judge for making it up as he went was impressive, I can only imagine the holy hell they'll bring down on this Torquemada wannabe.
