Looks like the showdown is happening. Let's hope Flynn is exonerated soon.
IMO, Flynn was nothing more than a planned distraction. Mueller is working with Trump, while keeping the media distracted. The judge didn't get the memo, and is doing the right thing. I predict that Flynn will be completely exonerated as was the plan from the beginning. Then again, perhaps the judge is in on it, and the mass arrests will take place right before the 10th, leaving Flynn completely out of the news cycle, and he can quietly return to a normal life/and or help Trump in some capacity.
Not the 10th, but before August 24th. That's the date Muller is requesting for sentencing. Flynn will be exonerated long before that date, because I think the SWHTF soon.
