Former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort was just found guilty on eight counts that special counsel Robert Mueller’s team had charged him with in Virginia.
These charges all related to Manafort’s finances, and to understand them, think about them in two separate groups.
The first group of charges deals with money Manafort made lobbying for Ukrainian politicians. Prosecutors say that in the years before Manafort joined the Trump campaign, he’d moved $30 million of that money from foreign shell companies into the US — but that he didn’t disclose this income on his tax forms, pay taxes on it, or fill out legally required disclosures of his foreign accounts. For this, he was convicted of five tax charges and one failure to declare foreign accounts charge.
The second group of charges is about what Manafort allegedly did once he lost his Ukrainian income after the country’s president was deposed — prosecutors say he tried to conjure up more cash via bank fraud. He was convicted of two counts of bank fraud.

Yes and New York trying to stop a pardon will be ruled unconstitutional
The founders has the president as the final judge and final jury
The pardon
New York State leaders also murdering us citizens with infanticide will get the military sicked on them

The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides: ... The federal and state governments can have overlapping criminal laws, so a criminal offender may be convicted in individual states and federal courts for exactly the same crime or for different crimes arising out of the same facts.

Ooooohh Obstruction of Justice. Legal gobble-de-gook for "We gotta imprison somebody for sumthin!! Democrats have corrupted the DOJ and destroyed the FBI. It's time to clean house BIGLY.
Is this Double Jeopardy?
With the New York District Attorney's charges, even if President Trump pardonsManafort, he still faces a criminal case on the new state charges. Mortgage fraud is not a crime under federal law and therefore there is no double jeopardy issue

New York's double jeopardy law was only recently modified just for the purpose of preventing Manafort from being pardoned. There is another case in the docket that's supposed to go before the SC and if they rule in favor of the defendant, the law could be struck down and Manafort still pardoned.

You're an idiot I suggest you go up a few posts and do some research the 5th amendment with regards to fed and state double jeopardy.

I think we all saw that coming. And more on the way. NY State as well as Maryland are waiting for Citizen Trump in the near future as well on about the same charges. They just can't touch Trump until after he becomes Citizen Trump. And it's a sad state of affairs when an Ex President may spend time in a State Lockup.

You liberal idiots are supporting the actions of a Banana Republic….
Your deep state protected hillary from actual crimes where there
were mountains of evidence proving her guilt while at the same
time they conspired to frame Trump with a made up dossier bought
and paid for by hillary.
If Manafort hadn’t worked for Trump we wouldn’t know his name…
Manafort’s were process crimes that had nothing to do with Russian Collusion…
The deep state with republican help wants to send a message to any
and all future outsiders that this is what will happen to them if they help buck the system…
You liberal Zealots are far more of a threat to America than the Russians…
Pull your head out of your ass and try to see the truth.

It seems that Trump is the worst judge of character in the history of all mankind
You're falling for a headline suggestion.
Why would Trump pardon him?
There is no reason that he would, other than reporters assumptions.

According to Sarah Sanders Trump has not made up his mind on the issue of the pardon yet.
