Flynn hearing canceled after brief allegedly reveals that the FBI manipulated the interview records.
Judge Andrew Napolitano on FOX breaks down the ‘bizarre twist and turns’ in the case against the former national security adviser, Michael Flynn.
“#BREAKING: Judge Sullivan has canceled our hearing in early November because of the ‘comprehensive briefing’ of the parties,” Sidney Powell tweeted late on Monday. It’s is not clear whether the cancellation signals the judge is considering Powell’s demands.

The explosive court document, filed last week, alleged that FBI agents manipulated official records of Flynn’s 2017 interview that led to him being charged with lying to investigators.
The entire case against former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, stems from the 2017 FBI interview, where Flynn was asked about his conversations with former Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. Flynn ultimately pled guilty to making false statements regarding those conversations during his interview, as part of former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.
Attorney Sidney Powell alleged in the court filings that FBI officials manipulated Flynn’s FBI 302 — a form used by agents to report or summarize interviews. It is not clear who may have done the alleged editing, though ex-FBI agent Peter Strzok was involved in the original interview.
