BREAKING: Flynn's attorneys say they are now taking the judge up on his offer to delay today's sentencing because he's still cooperating with prosecutors.— Steven Portnoy (@stevenportnoy) December 18, 2018
Judge Sullivan is giving Flynn yet another chance to delay -- now telling him it's his "prerogative" whether to move forward -- because he hasn't necessarily finished offering helpful information to the government that might mitigate a sentence.— Steven Portnoy (@stevenportnoy) December 18, 2018
Mueller prosecutor Brandon van Grack haltingly tells Sullivan it is a "possibility" that Flynn is still cooperating with the special counsel's office.— Steven Portnoy (@stevenportnoy) December 18, 2018
Flynn lawyer suggests his cooperation with Mueller is mainly complete. Additional cooperation would involve EDVA case (Kian and Alptekin), probably testimony at trial.— Andrew Prokop (@awprokop) December 18, 2018
That would be the case involving Flynn's business partners acting as agents of Turkey in a plot to get dissident cleric Fethullah Gulen extradicted to Turkey.
A status hearing is now set for March 13, 2019.

That federal judge is systematically destroying Fox, Hannity, Dershowitz, and other idiots peddling conspiracy theories on Flynn. Love it.— Blue(Wave)Kel 🇺🇸 (@bluekel) December 18, 2018
Hardest hit (besides Flynn): Dershowitz, Rudy, and a millions of gullible dopes who bought that line all along. https://t.co/Ql6TzIaK8V— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) December 18, 2018
