Daily Mail: Unsealed documents suggest Joe Biden 'personally raised the idea' of investigating Michael Flynn over his ties to Russia

* Partly-redacted handwritten notes by ex-FBI Agent Peter Strzok suggest it was Biden who raised the idea Flynn may have violated the Logan Act
* 'VP: "Logan Act."' read Strzok's notes, dated January 4, 2017 and attached to federal court papers filed Wednesday by Flynn's defense team
* Flynn's defense lawyers said in the court filing the notes suggest 'Vice President Biden personally raised the idea of the Logan Act'
* Biden in May said he knew 'nothing' of the Obama administration's moves to investigate Flynn before backpedaling to say he misunderstood the question
* A US appeals court directed a federal judge Wednesday to drop the criminal case against Flynn and let him withdraw his guilty plea
* Flynn pleaded guilty back in December 2017 to lying to the FBI during its investigation of ties between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia
* A probe was launched into whether he broke the Logan Act during phone calls with then-Russian ambassador to the US Sergey Kislyak
* Flynn later claimed he was 'set up and framed' by the bureau

Newly unsealed documents suggest Joe Biden 'personally raised the idea' of investigating former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn over his ties to Russia.

The partly-redacted handwritten notes by disgraced ex-FBI Agent Peter Strzok point to the possibility it was the then-vice president who suggested Flynn could have violated the Logan Act during phone calls with then-Russian ambassador to the US Sergey Kislyak.

'VP: "Logan Act."' read Strzok's notes, dated January 4 2017 and attached to federal court papers filed Wednesday by Flynn's defense team.

Shudder for the rule of law in our nation. Be alarmed that a politicized Justice Department will be allowed to do whatever it wants in service to a sitting president. Be amazed that judges can spout errant nonsense to reach a result that just happens to square with the interests of a president who shares their partisan leanings.

Yes, the decision by two Court of Appeals judges to block efforts to scrutinize the Justice Department’s decision to drop its prosecution of Michael Flynn, President Trump’s former national security adviser, is that disturbing. Here’s hoping the entire U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit insists on reviewing this scandalous decision and overturns it.

It is hard for me to believe that "easy grader" could be that a stupid. Much of the time I think someone is impersonating a a housebound elderly person.

Easy grading make me believe that the person is a go-along, get-along type of guy, who is just smart enough to realize that Democrats hold more power and so is taking the the gutless choice, the path of least resistance.

A suspected shoplifters to be mirandized. Flynn was never told that it was an official interview, After the interview the FBI agents came away with the opinion that Flynn was truthful. But the partisan hack Strzok kept the investigation open and had another go at it.

Will easy grader have a rebuttal for the no Miranda warning?
I guess easy grader does not believe in Miranda, if that person is a Republican. What a sad sack hack.
