Manafort Trial

[EvilCat Breath]

The judge told Mueller that this trial would not be used as a vehicle to attack Trump. Now Mueller can't attack wealth. More than half his case is gone. It will be over next week.

Lets give you an education, Judge has no power to say that...

Muleller can just make his case... Manafort looks guilty of witness tampering any way and that is a big old charge...

The judge cant. The judge did.

Where's the uproar over Crooked Hillary and her corrupt Clinton foundation? But yet the fake news is obsessed with Manafort's tax status? Which has nothing to do with collusion...

Very funny. Hillary never been charged of any wrong doing. She voluntarily showed her tax returns.
Trump has thousands of lawsuits right now, paid millions for fraudulent trump university. Hide his tax returns. Give us a fucking break.
They should lock these people up. Start with Trump.

Manafort keeps trying to blame it on Gates.
Hilarious.
Gates carries a backpack.
Manafort wears four years of suits worth more than what Gates made in four years.

Manafort bought houses, landscaping, suits and other extravagant items using wire transfers from Cyprus to avoid paying taxes. That's where he's fuked the most.

Second is fraud. Lying to banks to get loans. He got a 16 million dollar loan right here in Chicago. The loan was a quarter of the bank's assets. The people working at the bank are now witnesses.

Manafort is fuked.

Getting a bank loan is a crime?

Who knew?

I guess people should avoid getting bank loans then.

Owning a robe too!

Mueller must be amused at the Trump Moscow circus.

You must have family in Russia, you’re always talking about them

Sure, charge him with a crime that carries prison time and prove beyond a reasonable doubt he did it. Minus that, you're peeing upwind.

Manafort case judge warns Mueller team they 'can't prove conspiracy' without star witness

 

[The Original Tree]

So sounds like you are pro money laundering. You know free money without taxes.

How does a judge ensuring that there is a fair trial and Manafort is not railroaded like Mueller has done to his Innocent Victims before costing taxpayers millions in restitution when Mueller and the FBI were sued, 'pro money laundering'?

Manafort case judge warns Mueller team they 'can't prove conspiracy' without star witness

The federal judge in the trial of ex-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort told Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team on Thursday they cannot prove a key part of their case unless prosecutors call Manafort’s former business partner to the stand.



U.S. District Court Judge T.S. Ellis III issued the warning after prosecutors suggested Wednesday that Rick Gates – who is cooperating with prosecutors and had been considered a potential star witness – might not be called to the stand after all.

Referencing Gates, Ellis told prosecutors in court they “can’t prove conspiracy without him.”



"...the Mueller team was rebuffed by Ellis on Wednesday when it first tried to introduce photos of Manafort’s closets, filled with suits and other high-end articles of clothing. Ellis noted that those photos would eventually become fodder for the media, and called them "unnecessary" for jurors to see.

“Enough is enough. We don’t convict people because they have a lot of money and throw it around,” he said.




"The trial had been expected to last three weeks. But Ellis surprised the courtroom late Wednesday when he said, "I’m hoping to finish this case much sooner than anyone predicted.”

It seems the judge is determined to keep Mueller focused on THIS case and THIS CASE only, not allowing him to stray anywhere near 'Russians' or the 2016 election...which, ironically, are the whole reasons Mueller was appointed as Special Counsel, not to prosecute a tax case from a decade earlier.

All you need to know is the last guy Mueller went after with such a vengeance was railroaded and then became a millionaire when he sued Mueller and The FBI for engaging in a Witch Hunt, and wrongfully prosecuting an Innocent Man.

What?

Rich men wiring money for business deals?

How shocking?

Never heard such a thing.

It would be a bombshell if they had a closet full of nice suits too......right?

Why don't you tell us if they paid their taxes on it?

You douchebags get more desperate by the minute, and on a case that has nothing to do with Russia, or The Trump Campaign.

Pathetic.
