There was No news. The National Security adviser to Donald Trump, the ex-general Michael Flynn, had received no sentence for his involvement in the ‘Rusiagate’ and by working, without having reported this to the authorities, to the Government of Turkey. But Flynn also failed to absolution.

The judge in the case, Emmet Sullivan, decided to defer to the opinion. And compensating for the absence of verdict and, therefore, of holder, with some phrases that could be perfect for a script of a Hollywood movie. All of them addressed to Flynn, what has prevented that Donald Trump or his media related may use the absence of a sentence as an argument that the investigation of the ‘frame russia’ and the 16 other investigations that the Justice is carried out on the political activities and business of the president, is in reality a ‘witch-hunt’.

Some of the quotes from Sullivan, a three-star general who was director of the main agency of military espionage from the united states: “you Can say that you have sold to your country”; “you Can say that this works against everything this flag represents”; “This is a very serious crime: a high officer of the ultimate responsibility for giving false testimony to the FBI while you are physically inside the White House.”

All of these phrases for the Story to have a practical consequence: Flynn can go to jail for a maximum of five years. It is something that no one expected when the general entered the court of Washington. Both the Prosecution and the defense of the former advisor and maximum collaborator of Donald Trump had requested a minimum sentence that included a fine and, perhaps, a period of probation. The reason is that, since his indictment, Flynn has forgotten the heroism that both pleased him to demand of his political rivals, and has collaborated fully with the special prosecutor of the weft Russian, Robert Mueller. This, in turn, has requested the minor punishment possible for their crimes.

In total, Flynn has met on 19 occasions with the team of Mueller, by providing information that, according to what was published by the american press, has allowed the processing of dozens of people involved in the ‘frame russia’ or in other alleged criminal activities of Donald Trump, and has already sent to jail to four of them. Apparently, Flynn has already told everything he knew to Mueller.

The issue is that this collaboration has not satisfied Sullivan, who has remembered that, as the team of the special prosecutor has declared, Flynn continued lying even after reaching the agreement of collaboration with the researchers. Hence the formidable mad that the judge has stoked the ex-general this Tuesday. The defense of Flynn had based its argument, in a display of virtuosity legal, in that the general did not know that lying to the police is a crime. And that Flynn, in a new twist of drama, gave back before the judge and admitted his crime. Finally, the ex-general agreed to rethink its defense, with what the sentence is for 13 march.

Clear that that was not the only bad news for Trump. The president of USA announced the closing of his Foundation, which he directs with his sons, after which the office of the Prosecutor of the state of New York has opened a wide research that has concluded that this non-profit organization was used by Trump to make himself rich and to finance the presidential campaign of the patriarch of the family.
