Noted Liberal Law Professor Slams Obama for False Statements On Flynn Case Being Dropped
When prominent Democrats are calling out Barack Obama for making ridiculous statements, you just know something is up. In this case, it appears Barry is trying to cover for himself after being linked to the takedown of Michael Flynn – whose case was just dropped by the DOJ.
Here’s the deal, via Daily Wire:
Jonathan Turley, Constitutional Law Professor at George Washington University, slammed former President Barack Obama on Saturday after Obama made false statements about the Department of Justice (DOJ) dismissing the case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Continued:
“The news over the last 24 hours I think has been somewhat downplayed — about the Justice Department dropping charges against Michael Flynn,” Obama said in a leaked phone call late this week. “And the fact that there is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free. That’s the kind of stuff where you begin to get worried that basic — not just institutional norms — but our basic understanding of rule of law is at risk. And when you start moving in those directions, it can accelerate pretty quickly as we’ve seen in other places.”
LOOK:
(resent) CNN continues to report on Obama's statement without noting that he was wrong on Flynn's criminal charge and wrong on the lack of precedent. Given its slogan "Facts First," it appears the facts are not even coming last. They are not coming at all. https://t.co/UQ58aLDB6T

Turley, who is a Democrat, noted that Flynn was never charged with perjury and that his claim that there was “no precedent” for what the DOJ did with Flynn is false, as the Obama administration did the same thing with former Attorney General Eric Holder.

Democrats need to stop with their praise of Barack.
He literally did nothing good for eight solid years, outside of presiding over the killing of Osama bin Laden. Heck, even 2020 Democrat candidates bashed 44’s record like it was their job at the second debate.
Longtime Obama aide Valerie Jarrett just doesn’t get it, though.
Don’t you miss @BarackObama? https://t.co/92iMl1fFQi

His own party doesn't miss him, except maybe Biden.

Not at all. And, after last night, neither does the 2020 Dem field, either.
