Federal prosecutors accused former Trump presidential campaign chairman Paul Manafort of witness tampering late Monday in his tax and lobbying case and asked a federal judge to consider revoking or revising his release pending trial. In a late Monday filing in Washington, prosecutors accused Manafort and a longtime associate they previously linked to Russian intelligence of repeatedly contacting two members of a public-relations firm since February to secure false testimony about their collective work involving a group of former senior European politicians. The group, informally called the “Hapsburg group,” was secretly retained in 2012 by Manafort to take positions favorable to Ukraine, for whom Manafort was working, prosecutors charged. In court documents, including an affidavit by FBI agent Brock W. Domin, prosecutors with Special Counsel Robery S. Mueller III allege Manafort and his associate-- referred to only as Person A - tried to contact the two witnesses by phone and through an encrypted messaging program. Manafort, 69, has been on home confinement pending trial. Domin said that one of the public relations firm executives, identified as Person D1, told the government he “understood Manafort’s outreach to be an effort to ‘suborn perjury,’” and cause someone knowingly to tell a falsehood in the case by saying the group worked mainly in Europe and to minimize its U.S. work. Manafort has pleaded not guilty to charges including conspiracy, money laundering and bank and tax fraud charges in connection with his work for a pro-Russian Ukrainian politician and political party. In a superseding indictment In 2012 and 2013, according to the indictment, Manafort used offshore accounts to wire more than 2 million euros to pay the former politicians, who were described as independent actors instead of paid lobbyists. Prosecutors also filed notice of the allegation in Manafort’s pending tax and bank fraud case in federal court in Alexandria, where Manafort is under under similar conditions of conditional home cinfinement.

Some of us that are experienced of and about chasing after 'weeds" understand the false nature of Mueller's allegations. How do we understand the basic premise? Nothing to do with linkage of Trump's presidential campaign or later governance. Mueller is going after weeds and nothing related to the mandate of his special prosecutor powers.
That old bastard Magoo-Mueller's sounding pretty desperate. Now, let's look into his anthrax-case botch, the lies and coverup in the Whitey Bolger false-imprisonment and a few of his other scandals.
Bad bet. I'd say this is Mueller's last ploy before the IG Report comes out, and destroys his investigation..
Gag orders are unconstitutional. Trump should just pardon manafort and anyone who did anything to harm Democrats.
Papadopoulos, Flynn, Pinedo, van der Zwaan, Gates – all guilty next up – Manafort…. Mr. Mueller also will be credited with bringing in Cohen…. More to come!!!
Faggot boy didn't you say Trump the Great would be gone last Spring? Why are you always so stupid? Oh that's right you are a faggot.
Right! So, exactly what facts will "destroys his investigation"?
According to WaPo. LMAO
Yes. The nice men in white suits will see to it... Ode to Jameson:
Also being reported by: CNN, NYT, CBS, The Hill, Bloomburg, National Review, BBC..... What is your point?
What is your point? This has nothing to do with Trump or Russia. You neo liberals are such clown fools.
IOW, the usual "resistance" Fake News outlets? *yawn* What is your point? THE point(s)? You, like they, are still comically grasping at thin straws and imploding. Y'all can keep on feeding your insanity and paranoia while holding your collective breath and stomping your feetsies till 2020 -- President Trump is going NO WHERE. (While YOUR severely mentally challenged Dem Party, P*ssy Hat lunatics, conspirators and collaborators are in deep doo-doo.)
Yup, that is the overiding constant. But in the alleged minds of Stockholm Syndromed "Resistance" like Jameson, the Delusion is all that matters. The consensus of WaPo, CNN, NYT, CBS, The Hill, Bloomburg, National Review, BBC only means the insanity is viral and fatal.
Sure...fake news.... Precisely what is fake about this news?
try to keep up....Manafort's prosecution has everything to do with russia and GS-Boy Manafort was dip-shit donnie's campaign chairman, as you know. Manafort also did a lot of "business" with the Russians and Ukrainians. AND he was sitting at the head of the table during the famous SH Tower meeting with the russians..... Some of that business was really greasy, and PM didn't pay taxes on the profits So...Manafort is directly connected to DSD45, Russia, and a bunch of greasy deals. The only way Manafort avoids spending a lot of years in prison is to plead guilty and cooperate. The under / over on his flip is now 12 days...
Nothing to do with Russia you stupid faggot liar. Try not to swallow your Obama aids infested semen. Or on second thought do swallow you useless eater. Your mom should have aborted.
You forgot to add trolling in there cause I can't believe they're stupid enough to believe what they're posting, I might be wrong which would mean a bag of used pucks has an IQ advantage over them.
Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!
That has got to be the #1 reason he's still allowed to post here, the amusement factor.

Heh-heh... Sure, to the sane (aka *us*), Jameson's post appear to be "trolling" because, who could be THAT dopey and alienated from truth and reality? And then we remind ourselves that Progs-Libs voted for Hitlery while millions believed that 0bama *wuz* a "messiah". Their "Reality-IQ" is absolutely below room-temp. Here's the weird thing from OUR perspective: The left-Lib mind-set really *does* believe in their insanity and delusion. So yes, someone like Jameson may be relatively "normal" in routine matters of life, but ideologically their political reality is totally warped. UP = DOWN to these people. HATE dominates their emotions. IS it a mental illness? Sure looks that way.
That has got to be the #1 reason he's still allowed to post here, the amusement factor. What you said, bro.
I've always wondered why they lie so much, is it because they don't know any better or is it because they do know how foolish their ideology is and have to lie to cover up some of the worst bits? Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!
The depth to their "worst bits" can't even be imagined or fully understood by the rest of us -- it's that dark. These people seem to lie as a matter of habit, out of "rebellion", yeah, then out of covering up their original lies. Their "ideology" IS one Big Lie. With ZERO sense of morality and ethics, lying is like breathing to them. It appears the hubris and delusion of these people has embedded itself into their very bones. Today's insane Liberal-Prog-Athiests to God at his Throne on Judgment Day: "YOU STILL DON'T EXIST. But IF you do, are you still beating your wife?" ;-)

He's got nothing and $17 million to account for, so far.
Or will Gowdy let the clock run out on those as well?
