"Flynn didn’t get $50 million, but he did just get $1.2 million in taxpayer dollars in this settlement with the government. This isn’t a real settlement, of course, because a settlement in a lawsuit is something hammered out by parties with adverse interests. This is just the DOJ openly siding with Flynn."
"In a short court filing on Wednesday, Flynn and the Department of Justice filed a joint notice of settlement in Flynn’s civil case. That’s the one he filed in 2023, where he claimed that he had been maliciously prosecuted and that he expected compensatory damages of at least $50 million."

Finally, there are press reports highlighing a memo released in the DOJ production of Epstein files which alleges that a large volume of documents was shredded by the team charged with investigating Epstein’s alleged suicide. Hubbell concludes:
"Trump has dragged the DOJ and the Supreme Court into a deep well of corruption."

Then there's Trump's Pam Bondi-led DOJ paying former General Michael Flynn $1.2 million to settle his case against the government for selective prosecution arising out of lies he admitted telling the FBI, in which he denied contacts with Russian officials before Trump was inaugurated.

The #DOJ cast the settlement as an “important step in redressing” what it says was a “historic injustice” of the #Russia investigation that shadowed #Trump for much of his first term.
…The settlement is the latest turn in the long-running legal saga involving #MichaelFlynn, one of 6 Trump associates charged as part of special counsel #RobertMueller’s investigation into potential ties between Russia & Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
It also represents a stark turnabout in position for a #DOJ that during the #Biden admin had pressed a judge to dismiss the complaint. AG #PamBondi, a fmr personal lawyer for #Trump, has been a vocal critic of the #Russia investigation in which #MichaelFlynn was charged & the #FBI & DOJ over the last year have pushed out ofcls who participated in #criminal inquiries of Trump.
Court papers filed Wednesday do not reveal the settlement amount, but a person familiar with the matter…confirmed the total as about $1.2 million.
The settlement resolves a 2023 lawsuit in which Flynn sought at least $50 million & asserted that the criminal case against him amounted to a malicious prosecution.
[if you played #guilty, then you are admitting that you broke the law. So how could it be malicious prosecution?]
