The fact that he was acquitted means he would not be a good example of deciding whether or not we were at war since he was, well, acquitted. There appear to have been a few treason convictions for the early rebellions, and one could argue that Mary Surratt could not commit treason if we never considered those states in Rebellion to be another country (though hers is complicated by being a military tribunal).

Despite the debate over wording, treason convictions, or even charges, are really rare with the last ones having happened during WWII. There are probably many other charges that would be easier to convict than treason outside of a declared war. While I feel Flynn may well be over the line of treason if it can be proved that he did Putin's bidding here, feelings do not convict a person in a court of law. Why indict somebody on the high bar of treason when you can have a much higher chance of conviction with the same severity of the sentence if you try them on a different (lesser) charge?

IANAL but IMHO, I don't think courts exist to assuage our feelings about a particular matter. The job of the prosecutor is to convince a diverse jury of Americans that the evidence shows, beyond a reasonable doubt, the accused committed the offense for which they are charged. It has to be proven to people who are very likely not like me and don't think like me.

Michael Flynn said yesterday that Bill Gates, George Soros and Klaus Schwab are “part of a conspiracy” to use a device to “track every single one of us, and they use it under the skin,” because “they have an intent to have a New World Order.”

Snowflake Mike Flynn Ran Away From Tom Arnold

Mike Flynn was so triggered by Tom Arnold's presence at an awards banquet honoring his "bravery" on behalf of "freedom" that the retired general and former U.S. National Security Advisor Mike Flynn reportedly “evacuated” and had Arnold escorted out by police.

Yeah I don't recall him being on the "Constitutional Sheriffs" bandwagon before, but maybe I wasn't paying attention. :shrug:

I think of Frank Zappa's "200 Motels". That is one f*cked-up film, but I bet it still makes more sense than "2000 Mules".

That looks like the wrong form.

I don't see any "property damage" "personal injury" or "wrongful death" here. But IANAL.

This fuckmeister. The only reason he is where he is - is because a demented maniac pardoned him.

Malicious prosecution for admitting to lieing to the FBI? But just skipped the grey bar hotel cause a former guy pardonded him. As we discussed wide and far the acceptance includes admission of guilt. Where is the malicious part? Which former representatives out of the administration of the former guy does he intend to sue?

Last I checked Obama was a private citizen when Flynn was prosecuted. As was Comey due to the former guy firing him via press release due to bieng too cowardly to do it face to face.

Do we know who the lawyer(s) representing him for this are?

Does the government get discovery if the case goes forward?

I'm guessing he's hoping it's thrown out, the sooner the better - fewer legal expenses so he can start pocketing the grift sooner.

Why would anyone feel they needed to file a "Notice of Intent to Sue" with the Justice Dept.? I never heard of that. If you are going to sue someone, sue them.

Is there some law that says he can't sue anyone without giving notice first because he's a treasonous asshole?

I mean, that would make sense but I never heard of it. :think:

In order to sue the US on a tort theory, you are required first to file a claim form (which is what Flynn posted - Standard Form 95), and wait six months for the agency to make an administrative determination. 28 USC sec. 2675(a).
Earlier this year, the Supreme Court resolved a Circuit split and held that to maintain an action for malicious prosecution under 28 USC sec. 1983, you are not required to make a showing of actual innocence.
Thompson v. Clark
Even with this liberalization, I doubt that a case that ends in a pardon can support a claim for malicious prosecution, but ... LAWFARE!
