Regardless of where you stand with Mueller, everyone should absorb these words. Those who relish the Manafort trial should not lose sight of the precedent it sets. Are we dealing with “people of virtue, sensitivity and courage not affected by the winds of public opinion” ?
🔥those involved should be sensitive to the danger unleashed when political disagreements are transformed into partisan prosecutions. #JudeEllis #ManafortTrial
He also offered a solution, how come the @TheJusticeDept didn’t think of that? Perhaps that is the answer @realDonaldTrump #WitchHunt
Source: Judge Ellis ruling denying Manafort denying Special Counsel authority 6/26/18 for those following these cases the argument is fascinating because he seems to elude to the credibility of Concords filing.

#HotTip for all! Be your own fact checker, use link below, think of it as the google of gov docs. You type what you’re looking for into the search bar and dig in, it populates court docs, archives, data and all past press releases from the Hill.
foia.gov/search.html
#ProTip 🧠 If you know exactly what you’re looking for, out it in quotes. Some of the info is repetitive but if you’re crafty enough you’ll find gems. Once you’ve done a search use search bar at top of page to look for other info.
Long story that I was going to attempt to thread one day but since we’re here I’ll just explain it. A few years ago McCabe and FISA court sued search engines to NOT populate this data, it was under the guise of National Security of course but pretty sure it had darker intentions.

You made her smile in heaven tonight @realDonaldTrump, thank you. #BorderSecurity #BuildTheWall
Evelyn Rodriguez died because an unhinged woman was trashing the memorial of her murdered teenage daughter. She and her friend’s lives were cut short by MS-13. A single crime has more than one victim and #citizenlivesmatter #AngelMoms
None of these women needed to die. #BuildTheWall

"[Manafort] He is now in a far worse position than if he had never elected to cooperate, or if he had followed through on his agreement." #WednesdayWisdom #Mueller
nytimes.com/2018/11/27/opi…
2/"How to make sense of the bizarre turn of events involving Paul Manafort? Two months ago, he struck a plea deal with Robert Mueller, the special counsel — he pleaded guilty but agreed to provide full and truthful information in exchange for a more lenient sentence.
3/"But according to a filing by Mr. Mueller’s team on Monday, Mr. Manafort lied to them repeatedly, and after multiple warnings. He is now in a far worse position than if he had never elected to cooperate, or if he had followed through on his agreement. What was he thinking?

"Manafort’s ex-business partner Rick Gates becomes pivotal figure in trial" Uzo Asonye told the judge that the Prosecution may not call Gates....READ THIS! #WednesdayWisdom

2/"Assistant U.S. Attorney Uzo Asonye surprised those watching the Paul Manafort trial Wednesday when he vaguely suggested Richard Gates, Manafort’s former business partner, might not testify. Gates was expected to be the prosecutors’ star witness, a man who could describe the
3/"fraud that the government says Manafort perpetrated because he was a part of it. He has also been the focus of Manafort’s defense attorneys, as they say Gates embezzled money from Manafort’s company and committed fraud to cover his own tracks. As Rachel Weiner explained in her

#Manafort's Virginia trial begins today—1st of 2 for Trump's Campaign Manager whose shady work for pro-Russia oligarchs in Ukraine were well known. Mueller team will tell this story thru 18 counts of financial crimes. They'll likely also establish debt/cash flow problems by 2016.
#Manafort trial update: Federal judge approves jury of 6 men and 6 women to hear Special Counsel Mueller’s case. The panel of jurors deciding fmr Trump campaign mgr’s fate was plucked from Fairfax County, a part of Virginia that voted heavily against Trump abcn.ws/2AqQ9i9

#Manafort trial postponed.

Was scheduled to begin this Wednesday, the 25th. Now it will begin on Tuesday the 31st.

No reason cited for the delay.

reuters.com/article/us-usa…
See below and also my mentions in response to the linked tweet for possible explanations for the delay.

#BREAKING

James Brennan, Donna Duggan, Conor O”Brien, Cindy Laporta, and Dennis Raico are the FIVE WITNESSES for whom Mueller sought immunity.

The judge has granted immunity.

Has the judge has also compelled them to testify, since they were refusing?

The US Attorneys’ objection to the request by Cohen for a two-week delay in processing the materials captured in the raid is significant--b/c this isn’t just about taxi medallions. It’s about Trump-Russia collusion. #mueller #michaelcohen tinyurl.com/y7e8jpll
1/ The Mueller Team & the feds in NY and DC have a timeline, and they want to get moving on it. Mueller will not be interested in a proffer or plea agreement negotiations until he has seen the materials taken in the raid. (And lawyers for Cohen know that.) #mueller #michaelcohen
2/ The government is showing its hand here. It wants to get Cohen to flip SOON. That in itself is important, but it’s also important for getting Manafort to flip (who is resisting). #mueller #michaelcohen

"Manafort and Gates" LITIGATION and POKER -- Both strategic pursuits that count on playing your cards right, and #Mueller is a master player.
THREAD
"Before a civil or criminal trial begins in earnest, there is a period of time in which both parties exchange information about
about the facts of the case. This is called discovery." (criminal.findlaw.com) Before Discovery begins in a criminal case if a guilty defendant finds out the prosecution has a strong case, that defendant will be more likely to plead guilty to lesser charges to get a
lesser punishment. Prosecutors typically do not charge a defendant with their worst crimes initially because if they did that, the Defendant would not be motivated to “flip” – to tell what they know about bigger crime and other people involved in them. In litigation, as in poker
