The decision to rehear the case before a full complement of judges wipes out the June ruling from a three-judge panel that ordered Sullivan to immediately dismiss the case and said Sullivan was wrong to appoint a retired federal judge to argue against the government’s move to undo Flynn’s guilty plea.
A review by the Justice Department and FBI of errors made in more than two dozen applications to a secret surveillance court has found that the mistakes were not so serious that they undercut the validity of the court documents, the FBI said Thursday. The statement cited a not-yet public filing that the Justice Department and FBI have made to the court created by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. The agencies filed the document in response to the department’s inspector general revealing in March that his office had found a host of errors in 29 FISA applications they examined. As a result of the inspector general findings, the FBI and Justice Department took a closer look at those 29 applications, and has now concluded “none of the errors . . . undermined or otherwise impacted the validity” of the surveillance orders. The bureau said the 29 documents contained approximately 6,771 factual assertions. Those assertions also contained 201 “non-material” errors, including “minor typographical errors, such as misspelled words, and slight date inaccuracies.” A spokeswoman for the inspector general declined to comment. Back in March, the inspector general’s office said it had “identified apparent errors or inadequately supported facts in all of the 25 applications we reviewed,” the memo said, adding that in another four cases, they couldn’t even find a corresponding file meant to act as a fact-checking exercise for FBI agents seeking surveillance orders. Thursday’s FBI statement also noted that the 29 FISA applications predated changes to the surveillance process ordered by Director Christopher A. Wray. The FBI said in its statement that the bureau “remains confident these actions will fully address the findings and recommendations” of the inspector general.

Clearly you've come in here solely with the purpose to conjure your own battle, looking for people to take the position you are itching to fight. Personally, I'm disinterested in it - and going off other comments a plurality of other contributors are as well. There's plenty to discuss even just today with the 32.9% negative GDP and Herman Cain's death that we don't IMO need to conjure an argument of 'Trump is not a dictator - change my mind' - which you appear to be doing so in bad faith. But heck if you and Leroy want to mutually hash the topic out who am I to judge, I just wish you'd stop pretending that "Trump is a dictator" posts are some widespread plague on here. It's boring and disproven.
