Tucker: Prosecutors are Sweating Manafort to turn on Trump

Manafort is guilty as ****. That's why he was arrested.

The crimes are from about 10 or 15 years ago.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

What does any of this have to do with the few months he was involved int he campaign?

It's the feds.

It's what they do.

Literally how they do their jobs.

There's a reason the feds have an almost perfect conviction rate and its almost all pleas.

It's also an embarrassment to the idea of justice.

If there's anyone who can still think with any logic in the DOJ, they need to shut this circus down.

It's revealing too much of the torture they use instead of the investigation they claim to use.

Mueller, like Strzok, was hired to prove a particular point, not find any actual truth.

The FBI and DOJ must search for ideologues who see nothing but the goal they are hired to prove and exclude anything that does not contribute to taking down the target they are assigned.

Out legal system is a disgrace and the trust in our legal system among the rank and file citizenry is evaporating.

Whether you're a young man getting busted for driving while Black, a sailor getting a year in jail for snapping a selfie or the wife of a former President running for office, our "legal system" is a biased and twisted weaponized tool of the elites.

I've seen a couple of this guys threads and figuring out our legal system is the least of his problems....Rob has a hard time with reality so he lets Fox News (Trump propaganda machine) dictate it for him..

Can you explain why the FBI and DOJ acted like Day Care workers investigating Hillary and her co-conspirators and why they act like the Gestapo investigating Trump?

Blowing kisses and granting immunity seems to be vastly different than making crap up, unmasking for effect, deceiving judges to gain warrants, spying on the opposition party during a campaign and all the rest.

Are your propaganda sources not covering the facts of this?

My question is why all of these people are worried about a man who has broken so many laws it takes two trials to cover them all. Manafort can only turn on Trump if Trump has broken the law. So if it is as Trump says, no collusion, no obstruction, then why should Fox News, the GOP and even Trump worry about what Manafort says?

Muldoon and his goons indict for effect.

When the indicted show up at trial the jack ass has dick. He intimidates and threatens family members to gain the pleas.

This goon is an embarrassment to the entire country and needs to be retired soon and completely.

As his tactics are revealed, the lack of integrity and honest execution of the law is being shown to be completely missing.

I am a law and order type of guy. If Manafort committed crimes then he needs to pay dearly for those crimes. If he cooperates with law enforcement and tells them what he knows he might be able to reduce his sentence. If not then he needs to go to jail if guilty like anyone else caught committing a crime. We all need to cheer when justice is being served.

Justice is not served by our DOJ. I don't know if it ever was.

The benefit of this whole mess is that we are being given a good look at what our DOJ does and how they do it.

The bad news is that the trust in our legal system is being eroded as we realize that our DOJ is a weaponized, manipulated and biased tool of the elites.

We are living in a police state.

Of what crime is Manafort guilty?

No one but Putin can confirm the golden shower thing. But Manafort is privy to everything Russian and knows what Trump knows about it too.

Wow!

Is Putin now the Hooker that was pissing on the bed?

Where was Stormy?

Oh I think Manafort is sweating pretty hard right about now. If he REALLY trusted a lawyer hinting at a pardon he would have plead long ago. But Guiliani screwed that pooch when he dismissed another lawyer's statements about Trump not dictating the Kushner response as this is why you have lawyers speak, to disavow any statements found out to be outright lies.... :roll:

I do believe Manafort doesn't trust Trump and until Trump says pardon Manafort ain't diving on any sword (I also don't see Manafort as ever taking one for the team) I also don't think Manafort believes Trump (he lies way too much way too often) so unless a written contract for a pardon is signed I think Manafort eventually ends up flipping.

Sacrifice for others just doesn't seem to be in any of these guy's make-up... :peace

You post as if you have some inside info.

This is going to upset you, but the obvious reason as to why Manafort hasnt 'flipped' is because Manafort has nothing to flip about. There was no collusion. They have seized all of Manaforts computers and documents, they have read his emails and texts by now and if he and Trump had engaged in some criminal activity together, Mueller would already know about it. But lets say Manafort comes out tomorrow and agrees to spill the beans of Trump for a lighter sentence. He would need proof of his claims. I suspect you would believe him, but what if he is lying in an effort to stay out of prison? He would need evidence to back up his claim and I am not sure where this evidence would come from since Mueller already seized all his stuff.

Always possible but Manafort is very used to dealing from the bottom of the deck and not as easily spoofed as more honorable men. Mansion arrest while his lawyers 'negotiate', while he witness tampers was a tactic to avoid having to flip. Manafort is playing out his hand as best he can.

One could also make the case that if there is nothing to flip then why is Guiliani hinting of pardons??? Surely a former prosecutor wouldn't attempt obstruction or witness tampering??? :doh

But we will see soon enough, Manafort doesn't lack for balls in his 'native' environment, let's see if he still has them in prison... :peace
 
looks like Cohen already flipped, so Manafort's value as a witness has probably dropped somewhat. seems like Cohen would be a potential goldmine.

Cooperating =/= flipping. And flipping =/=flipping on Trump. But keep dreaming anyway.

If justice is being served, tell me when the Podesta brothers/group (which includes John Podesta who was head of Hillary's 2016 election campaign) will be thrown in jail because they were foreign agents of a pro-Russian organization in Ukraine? Did Mueller offer the Podestas clemency?

I did not realize that. Could you provide the details please?

Why are you looking forward to? Which other freedoms are you happy to deny Cohen?

Your adherence to the latest left wing phrases--in this case, referring to Trumpism as a cult--is rather cult-like.
