Former prosecutor Judge Jeanine Pirro is among the biggest propagators of baseless conspiracy theory and rhetoric at FOX.
Her pieces are more comical than anything else, to me, at this point. She's worse than Rudy Giulianni when it comes to peddling bullshit.
I think a lot of FOX viewers expected Judge Sullivan to dismiss or challenge the prosecution's case against Flynn yesterday based on Pirro's recent piece asserting that Flynn was a victim of the FBI, along with her praise of Judge Sullivan as a straight shooter who chastises prosecutors when he thinks they've overreached.
As we know, that's exactly the opposite of what happened at Flynn's sentencing hearing.
Judge Sullivan has seen the evidence files and the redacted portions of sentencing recommendation memos. He made it quite clear that he thought the prosecutors had gone too lightly on Flynn, and he had Flynn and his attorney confirm in court that there was no trickery or set up involved.
Flynn lied, he knew he was lying, he has no defense for it, and he wants to maintain his guilty plea -- confirmed by both Flynn and his attorney (though still contested by Trump and his spokespeople).
