Likud politicians issued statements and took to the airwaves to defend
Netanyahu and lambaste the legal system.

will be remembered as one of the low points of the Israeli legal
system,” new Knesset Speaker Yariv Levin of Likud said in a statement.
Caroline Glick: The biggest show trial in history - more nonesense!
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/280747
Author, columnist and speaker Caroline Glick tweeted today, Sunday,
about the Netanyahu trial and its connection to the controversy in the
US regarding General Michael Flynn.
"Even more than General Michael Flynn, Obama viewed Prime Minister
Netanyahu as his greatest enemy," Glick wrote. "The operation to frame
Flynn began around the same time as Israel's pro-Obama bureaucratic
state began framing Netanyahu."
Sessions claps back at Trump: ‘You’re damn fortunate’ I recused from Russia probe
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/23/jeff-sessions-recusal-trump-tuberville-275241
Jeff Sessions strongly rebuked President Donald Trump late Friday after the president told Alabama voters to “not trust” the former attorney general over his recusal from the Justice Department’s probe of Russian election meddling.
“Look, I know your anger, but recusal was required by law. I did my duty & you're damn fortunate I did,” Sessions tweeted. “It protected the rule of law & resulted in your exoneration.”
Sessions faces Tuberville in a July 14 runoff. A poll conducted by Cygnal shows Tuberville leading Sessions by more than 20 percentage points.
Coronavirus: Over 40 Covid-19 cases traced to church service in Germany
The service was held on 10 May at a Baptist church in Frankfurt.
Church officials say they followed social distancing rules and disinfected the building ahead of the service.

Wladimir Pritzkau, the deputy head of Frankfurt's Evangelical Christian Baptist congregation, told German media that the rules were adhered to during the 20 May service.
Six of those infected were taken to hospital.

Judge in Flynn case hires lawyer as appeals court reviews his decision not to dismiss: report
U.S. District Court Judge Emmett G. Sullivan has
taken the unusual step of hiring an attorney to represent him as an
appeals court reviews his decision not to immediately grant the Justice Department's (DOJ's) request to dismiss its case against former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
A long list of scholars, including Harvard law professor Laurence
Tribe, signed onto a brief arguing against the DOJ's motion to dismiss."This case is ultimately about judicial independence and the integrity of the Judicial Branch and therefore about the rule of law in our constitutional democracy," the brief reads.
"The government’s motion to dismiss the case against Michael Flynn, after he twice pled guilty ... asks this Court to place its imprimatur on the Executive Branch’s virtually unprecedented decision to dismiss a prosecution after the case has been won."
