this is America, we don’t prosecute people because they have a lot of money and throw it around!




Mueller team lectured by judge in Manafort case




Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s prosecutors were lectured by a federal judge on Wednesday for the language they’ve used in the courtroom and more, as the trial of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort entered its second day.

U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III specifically told prosecutors to stop using the word “oligarch” to describe wealthy Ukrainians, whose dealings with Manafort are at the heart of the fraud charges he faces in northern Virginia federal court.

The judge said the term has a “pejorative” meaning and is not relevant in this case. Further, he cautioned that using it could suggest Manafort is associated with bad people – and guilty by association.

“It’s not the American way,” the judge said. He noted that wealthy donors like George Soros or the Koch brothers also could be considered oligarchs.

So they simply have little or no hard evidence, otherwise, you lead with that.

Mueller is going to lose this case and his word on anything will be dust in the wind afterwards....

Mueller is going to lose this case and his word on anything will be dust in the wind afterwards....

It will never get to the jury, the judge will deliver a "Not Guilty" directed verdict

With most of his evidence exposed as nonsense Mueller will rest this turkey next week.
