I think if Trump pardons Stone, it will fuck the Flynn case up. My fear is Sullivan will stonewall to force a Flynn pardon. Optics then will be worse than an exoneration for Flynn going forward. If POTUS pardons Flynn, then puts him back in the administration all hell will break loose.
If the half chan JannyAnon is legit, there could be some real shit going down in the near future. Blowing up SCOTUS now is an option to avoid a pardon.
My take has been that a scandal blows up SCOTUS and the military steps in with tribunals until the justice system has been righted again.Justice system is so fucked up now that there is no other route out, IMO.
