WASHINGTON – Free Speech For People, a nonpartisan national organization, is President Trump’s pardon to former national security rant Michael Flynn, calling him selfish and unconstitutional.
Free Speech For People recorded a movement on December 1, 2020, seeking permission to record an amicus brief in U. S. District Court. But it’s not the first time For the District of Columbia, where Flynn pleaded guilty twice and was awaiting lie sentence to investigators in an attempt to protect Trump. The proposed amicus brief makes a four-part argument as to why the court deserves to claim Flynn’s pardon as invalid under the US Constitution. But it’s not the first time The president’s executive grant of clemency claims to forgive Flynn for a wide variety of misconduct vaguely described, adding not only accusations of false statements to federal investigators in January 2017, but also other unsoscribed crimes, such as and all imaginable crimes arising from facts and circumstances. . . somehow similar to the Special Counsel’s investigation. “
“The constitutional force to pardon the president is broad, but it is absolute,” says the proposed brief. “The original public importance of the religious application clauses [of the Constitution] is that they restrict the strength of the president by requiring him to exercise it in an intelligent religion in the public interest, through corruption in his own interest. “
The brief argues that the Court deserves the “substantial evidence” that “clemency Executive Scholarship” awarded through President Trump to the accused was not made in an intelligent religion in the public interest, but rather for reasons of self-aggression, self-coverage, or other non-public purposes of bad religion, and therefore violated religious compliance clauses. Citing public statements through Trump and the White House, as well as Trump’s history of Trump’s abuse of forgiveness to insulate himself from the testimony of his co-conspirators and his retaliation against honestly testifying co-conspirators, the brief argues that this is another example. Trump seeks to praise a co-conspirator for protecting him and ensuring that his continued coverage is opposed to any lengthy conduct of an investigation or prosecution.

Free Speech For People is asking the court to investigate more the extent to which the president’s grant of leniency was made in his own interest than in any credible conception of the public interest. If so, it argues that the court deserves to dismiss the Justice Department’s request to dismiss the case and continue to sentence it.
Federal Judge Emmet Sullivan will decide whether to authorize the amicus brief.
