Paul Manafort Sentencing

Obscurity said:
This is the most laughably absurd bull**** post I've ever seen.

You're only concerned that democrats don't "get their due". You don't give a **** about the real two tiered system, where the rich can rob millions but moms go to jail for food stamp fraud.

You ****ing people are pathetic.

Robbery is against the law. I have no idea what you think you are trying to say by saying the rich are robbing millions. That sounds a little stupid and unsupported by reality and reason.

You still do not say whether or not you vote for sinners. If you criticize Christians for voting for sinners, does that mean you don't vote at all?

Sure. It's clear you don't even recognize white collar crime as real crime.

You call it white collar crime but you cannot give an example or explain what you mean specifically. That is your fault.

White collar crime is usually related to fraud, misrepresentation, etc. financial crimes.

Manafort is a scumbag and a POS.

And there has been NO charges of "Russian collusion". The same Russian collusion that the democrats have screamed about for 2 years.

As the guy in a TV commercial selling widgets and gadgets for $9.99 says - "but wait! there's more!"

Just because Manafort has been sentenced on his charges, he can always have additional charges added as we've seen done by the SDNY within minutes of his sentencing.

At the Manafort sentencing Judge Amy Berman Jackson stated;

“The ‘no collusion’ mantra is simply a non sequitur,” Jackson said during Manafort’s sentencing hearing on Wednesday, referring to Manafort’s attorneys’ claim that Mueller had found no evidence of collusion with Russia. “It’s also not accurate because the investigation is ongoing.”

Rick Gates was supposed to be given a date for sentencing this morning, but instead, prosecutors asked for a 60 day delay before the next sentencing hearing because Rick Gates is still cooperating and the government is not done with him yet. Rick Gates was deputy chair of the inaugural committee and his cooperation is central to Mueller's case of conspiracy/collusion with Russia. Rick Gates' testimony is also central to the SDNY investigation into the Trump inauguration.

This is more evidence that the Mueller investigation won't end soon, at least not before June.

Shady business dealings are quite common among the unclean. Look at how much money Hillary made while conducting illegal pay to play schemes while hiding her activities on her private server when serving as SOS.

I don't care. They should go to jail. It transcends party so this is not a dim/con problem, it's a rich/poor problem.
 
marke said:
A fantasy? Why was Tony Podesta not charged along with Manafort for the criminal activities they did together? Because Tony is closely tied to Hillary and the democrat party? Yes, Tony was handled differently than Manafort because Tony is a friend of Hillary and Manafort was a one time associate of Trump's.

I don't follow, Marke. I've never lived in Bizzarro World.

The poor may envy the rich but that will do nothing to help either the rich or the poor.

In other words you know nothing about Tony Podesta and don't want to know why he was not charged while Manafort was?

Oh, no, Marke, I just meant since I don't live in your fever swamp, I have a hard time following the jumps in logic that are required. Maybe Alex Jones can help me understand? I haven't sworn off pizza, am I at risk of becoming a pedophile?
 
Well, 7 years, and possibly more. A chance he will die in prison.

Criminals suck.

You are at risk of engaging in unjust condemnation of republicans for things democrats are given a free pass for doing.

Even criminals who are never charged because they own corrupt investigators, judges and prosecutors?

Oh no, no risk whatsoever. I can spot soot from a mile away. In the case of the current Republican party, I don't even need to open my eyes... I can SMELL them. ;)

More ignorance. You don't seem to care that the two tiered justice system exists, one for the poor, one for the rich. You are blind.

Wrong. The rich get away with everything in this country and disgusting zealots vote in "law and order" presidents then complain when one of this presidents cronies goes to jail.

You disgust me with you affluophilia.

The rich are not the enemy of the poor and greedy. Their own foolishness, greed and envy is eating the ignorant ungodly poor alive. They need Jesus who will provide all their needs and who will teach them not to be so sinfully envious and discontented with their lot in life.

Of course the rich often escape justice where the poor do not. That is because so many judges are wicked and do wickedly for money. We need more good judges appointed to courts and more crooks removed from positions on the bench.

But its not even that. The hypocrisy of religious zealots is astounding. When one chooses the lesser evil one is still choosing evil, but those assholes would kiss Lucifer's ass if only to stop the opposition from winning.

Based on your assessment of religious zealots (your label, not mine) they could not choose/support anyone running for the win in any form of a man made (secular) government.

Because, according to the narrative of the Bible all people are sinners which includes both the religious and the non-religious.

Exactly, how do you assess the purity of the opposition that you choose/support for the win?

Is everyone in the opposition just as pure as white driven snow without a single stain >>> Just like you?

Remember the following conversation...

Thread: Nearly two-thirds of voters think Trump committed crimes before taking office, poll finds
