The lawyers for Mike Flynn have just put forth a motion to hold the Mueller prosecutors in contempt and to have the case dismissed for “outrageous government misconduct”:
DAILY CALLER – Former national security advisor Michael Flynn’s attorney said in a court filing Thursday that the case against her client should be dismissed “for outrageous government misconduct” and that the court should “issue an order to show cause why the prosecutors should not be held in contempt.”
Attorney Sidney Powell wrote that FBI agent Peter Strzok changed his interview notes to purport that Flynn said things he did not, that a Pentagon official may have leaked evidence to the press with the involvement former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and that Department of Justice prosecutors have refused to turn over exculpatory evidence to the defense.
Attorney Sidney Powell on Thursday asked a federal court to throw out the felony case against her client, former Trump national security advisor Michael Flynn.
She said the government withheld evidence of misconduct in the FBI, including the infamous Peter Strzok-Lisa Page texts, until one day after he pleaded guilty in December 2017, and that contemporaneous notes from Flynn’s interview with Strzok contradict Strzok’s final report.
Powell wrote that Pentagon official James Baker may be behind the illegal leak to The Washington Post of a transcript of a call with a Russian ambassador, with James Clapper allegedly telling David Ignatius to take a “kill shot.”
That’s a summary of what the motion says. Here’s the details, via Techno_Fog, who posted screenshots from the motion:
**1 – Lisa Page edited the Flynn’s transcript; Clapper told reporter to take “kill shot”:
BREAKING – new @SidneyPowell1 filing in the Flynn case.

**3 – Post-Flynn interview analysis…maybe he didn’t lie?
New Page/Strzok texts also include this post-Flynn interview analysis of Strzok.
This appears to confirm they left the interview thinking Flynn didn't lie. pic.twitter.com/Gw99uMMrku

**4 – Agent notes contradict 302 on whether Flynn spoke to Kislyak on UN vote:
Manipulation of the Flynn 302 — two weeks after the interview. (1/24/17 vs 2/10/17; timeline key.)
Agent notes say Flynn wasn't sure he spoke to Kislyak on the UN vote.
The 302 says different. pic.twitter.com/Nf0xfi6FFZ

**5 – More contradictions between Agent notes and 302:
More on the 302: They added Kislyak's description of any Russian response to a request from Flynn.
Powell: "That question and answer do not appear in the [agent] notes" pic.twitter.com/04zjcMQnCP

**6 – James Baker is the leaker of Flynn’s call transcript:

**7 – Another contradiction via Agent notes and 302:
The Flynn 302 doesn't even match the FBI Agents' notes.
Agent Notes: "I don't remember making 4-5 calls."
302: "Flynn remembered making four to give calls that day about this issue." pic.twitter.com/27WlXJ6gG6

**8 – Lisa Page claims she didn’t edit Flynn 302:
Lisa Page lied to the DOJ about her edits to the Flynn 302.
"Page didn't recall whether she took part in editing the FD-302"
Upon seeing her texts, she "believes she must have seen it at some point…" pic.twitter.com/fgMaZcWnWa
