Holy snap.

Judge Sullivan drops gauntlet and asks DOJ to produce all documents related an improper, early communication between Michael Flynn& #39;s current attorney, Sidney Powell, and Attorney General William Barr.

She tries to but in, he doesn& #39;t let her.
Sidney Powell is now up, and she says she doesn& #39;t have any records except one letter from a prior attorney.

Judge Sullivan: Have you had discussions with the president about this case?

Powell: "I& #39;m sorry your honor, I can& #39;t discuss that." She claims executive privilege.

!!!
"I provided it in person to counsel for the president."

Then she buckles: She says she spoke to Jenna Ellis "and the president himself to provide a brief update of the status of the litigation ... within the last couple of weeks."

"I& #39;ve had a number of discussions with" POTUS.
Judge: "What precisely did you ask him [the president] to do in connection with this case?"

She says she only gave him an update to the litigation but asked him not to pardon Flynn.

(Not live-tweeting, so I& #39;ll stop here. Hearing has moved on to other issues.)
