The former chair of the Trump campaign, Paul Manafort, has received his second sentence from U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson of Washington, D.C. Jackson sentenced Manafort to 73 months in prison with 30 months of the sentence running consecutively with his Virginia sentence. That would leave an addition of 43 months to run consecutively. That would extend his sentence to seven and a half years. In the federal system, there is an allowance for 15 percent good behavior (there is no parole) plus his time served (9 months). That could result in a release around November 2024.
The sentence ends the criminal process for Manafort except for his serving of the sentence and the possibility of a pardon from President Donald Trump. The sentencing was a critical moment not just for Manafort but Special Counsel Robert Mueller. I just wrote a column for USA Today on how this sentence would establish whether Mueller was played by Manafort. Since he was looking at roughly 35 years in both cases, this is still a light sentence outcome for Manafort.
Jackson allowed both sides to argue before her on the appropriate sentence. Notably, prosecutor Andrew Weissmann insisted that Manafort “undermined our political process,” even though these counts involve Manafort’s work for sinister Ukrainian figures. It seemed to be a reference to his work for foreign interests in the United States without registering as an agent.
The defense also argued that officials at the “highest levels” of the U.S. government knew of Manafort’s work and that the work continued without objection. That was a new argument and suggested that not only were these activities not clandestine but known. It was a strong performance by the defense that hit the critical points in trying to avoid a consecutive sentence and a maximum sentencing.
Manafort did speak and, unlike his statement in Virginia, Manafort did express remorse and said “I’m sorry for what I’ve done.” He explained that his earlier allocution was meant to express shame and remorse. He promised to live a new life and that he had learned his lesson. He also spoke of being left in solitary confinement and how his health has declined due to the harsh confinement. This was a very different allocution delivered with full contrition from Manafort in his wheelchair. He spoke of his age (approaching 70) and asked to be allowed to spend his final years with his wife.
Judge Jackson noted that there was no collusion established in this case — echoing the same statements out of Virginia. These charges are separate and distinct from any collusion allegation. She did note, in speaking directly to the defendant, that Manafort’s career has been strategic in his lying to the public. She said Manafort is “not victim number one” but someone who warranted his charges and sentencing. She noted that he pleaded guilty to conspiring to influence witnesses and expressly noted that this was done with Konstantin Kilimnik, a figure with Russian and Ukrainian intelligence connections. She also said that her description of his confinement was overblown and that he has continued to play with the facts. Prosecutors insist that he was not in true solitary confinement and was receiving many special privileges. The solitary confinement spin clearly blew back on Manafort.
The sentence follows a widely ridiculed sentencing by Judge T.S. Ellis Jr. in Virginia. Manafort was convicted by a jury in August of eight criminal charges β five counts of filing false tax returns, two counts of bank fraud and one count of failing to report foreign bank accounts. These were premeditated and long-standing criminal acts worth millions. Yet, Ellis gave Manafort less than four years in rejecting the recommendation of not just the Special Counsel but also the court probation officer.
Ellis previously raised eyebrows over his controversial comments and veiled criticism of the Special Counsel investigation. At the sentencing, this controversial record continued after said that Manafort led βan otherwise blameless life.β It is hard to see who Ellis was referring to unless Manafort has some sort of evil twin. Manafort has long been viewed as a dubious character in D.C. with shady clients and practices.
The second sentencing set the stage for the final drama in the Manafort case: whether Trump will pardon Manafort or, more likely, commute his sentence. The latter would allow Trump to say that Manafort has served almost a year already and would remain a felon. Nevertheless, the pardon would remain one of the most controversial in U.S. history. Trump could argue that the sentencing established that these crimes were not related to him and our collusion-related crimes. Thus, he could argue that Manafort’s health and his targeting by the Special Counsel warranted some form of clemency. In my view, the pardon would still be highly inappropriate and wrong. While I have previously written how presidential pardons are hardly a pristine record, there is no avoiding the fact that Manafort lost his plea agreement for failing to fully cooperate with a Special Counsel looking into the campaign and administration of President Trump.
Well, he was not sentenced to any lashes. But. He did not wear a headscarf.
P Turley what’s up?
Are you pre op trans gender or what the hell? And yet the battle intensifies over night as the Deep State pals of yours, it seems, panic!!!!! π
It’s over Turley call in the confessor!
Intriguing Implication Within Nellie Ohr Testimony: Nellie Ohr Approached Glenn Simpson for a Job in Sept 2015?β¦
Posted on March 13, 2019 by sundance
The Epoch Times, via Jeff Carlson, has apparently gained access to the transcript of testimony from Nellie Ohr. Most of the back-story of Nellie Ohr working for the CIA as an Open Source Works contractor was previously discovered by CTH during earlier research; and again the transcript is not provided by Epoch.
However, while the transcript is not provided, there is a very intriguing implication within their description/interpretation of the testimony (emphasis mine):
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/
Dinos/Rinos murder Mob boss this evening to cancel evidence…in favor of Manafort? We’ll never know on the outside but the message was sent, in blood no less. Someone knows what it meant.
Smells like Panic to me among the Anti-Trumper Dinos-Rinos, kill anyone on the inside that knows anything of the Deep States operation.
Maybe I should start a funeral home & flower shop around DC & NYC/NJ.

Where’s the Russia?
In Anon’s mind and Steele’s dossier! Nowhere else.
And all Mueller had to do 2 years ago was searched the internet for: Hot Russian chicks in oversized military hats.
Just that of what we all could have done with our lost time! LOL:)
People seem to be writing Manafort off as a possible cooperator in the future. However, Manafort is now looking at 16 new felonies that are βpardon proofβ and he may be facing more years even if heβs pardoned by Trump. When youβre seventy years old and looking at maybe the rest of your life behind bars, Manafort may decide that the guys that can really remedy that situation are prosecutors, and not Trump. Sure, heβs damaged goods but he may hold the evidence that can be corroborated by other independent evidence that can maybe do the job on Trump. That may be still pretty good bargaining information that could still help his situation. In these things, you just never know whatβs going to happen until they happen.
Hope never dies, evidently.

Hey, God of Noise:
That’s an old article which was last updated as follows:
UPDATED ON: JUNE 24, 2017 / 6:21 PM / CBS NEWS
Is there anything more recent?
It’s apparently history; it’s over and done — and it may have been politically-motivated. But sure, old God-of-Noise — keep stirring the pot.
“Attorney Brady Toensing, the vice-chairman of the Vermont Republican Party, accused Sanders of bank fraud and requested a federal investigation. News surfaced in May 2017 about an FBI and U.S. Department of Justice investigation.”

The probe is over.
Legally absolved. Sort of like OJ. Touch a nerve did we?
“Touch a nerve did we?” Asks the noise-god.
Nope. But I guess it makes you feel better to think that you did.
Trump said he would only hire the best,and he did not. Every scum bag that was laying at the bottom of the swamp he hired. And the people that wrote about Trump years ago all said he will take down everybody that he attached himself too, and he will.
Fishy:
“And the people that wrote about Trump years ago all said he will take down everybody that he attached himself too, and he will.”
**************************
You know they say if you loudly proclaim that “the world is coming to an end today,” long enough you’ll have to be right sooner or later. Maybe that’s your strategy.
I love how you supporters deny evidence. How many people around Trump are under investigation? How many have pled? How many have quit or got out of the swamp under Trump? Face it, Trump is toxic to anyone around him or his administration. When lawyers are forced to hire lawyers, and then they hire more, you know something is very wrong.

I have to ask by what Standard or Compared to Whom Prof Turley is comparing Manfort too?
So far it seems to me Turley’s character, Mueller’s, Jackson’s, John/Tony Podesta, Hillary, Obama, etc all are showing they have all sinned & in which I judge Manaforts action in a better light by far the others.
And if I was inclined to I would have done as Turley did to Manafort with the jail cloths & photoshopped P Turley in Orange prison garb. But no need for me as Turley appears to me in Orange every time he posts that picture of Manafort not in a suit & tie.
P Turley’ being tone deaf to these current issues reminds me of those civilians that rode out for a picnic at one of the 1st major battles of the US civil wars & ended up being routed from the battle.
Double Live Gonzo Lawyering & live current military history bought to us by P Turley.
LOL;)
he’s not tone deaf to the tastes and preferences of the academic, legal, and administrative cadres among whom he subsists.
the Trump Train is made up mostly of people who are not lawyers and academics and ngo / univesity admins or civil service workers.
There is a big cultural chasm. I’m a lawyer and trust me I keep my yap shut at court, about Presidential political matters, and assume I am in hostile territory on that account.
True & I understand clearly why you, I, others should try to keep quite at times, but then there are times like 1776 & 1861 & many will not shut up or sit it out.
And the deep state wouldn’t want me doing jury duty, as I’m very unbiased.
So it’s another odd time in the US. Many wish Trump success because if he fails they know what is likely to follow.
We can uncover the kids’ eyes, take their ear plugs out, and hose down the WH?
Likely to follow?? Haha. Not a single one of you gullible rubes. dupes, klan wannabees, pocket-traitors or grifters on the make will so much as lift a finger at anyone or anything. I know this because you are consumed with an irrational fear of that which you are unfamiliar. To a man(?), you’re timid, fearful, small-minded and superstitious in real life.

These are at least part of the latest changes against Manafort, not so unlike the other questionable changes the DOJ’s Mueller financial broke it off in his azz on.
Let me point out to Mr Rock Throwing Sinner in a glass house P Turley. Manafort did a few property deals & now his up on new charges.
What did Turley have to say about Wallst/DC/City London’s Trillion Dollar ongoing Mortgage Fraud that was in complete collapse by 2009.
Who was Charged for Massive, Nation Wide Financal Collapse MERS+++ Mortgage/Financial Fruad???
Lloyd Blankfein Goldman Sachs, Jamie Dimon of JPM, Warren Buffet & his best bud Charlie “Suck It Up” Munger, Maurice R. Greenberg, Hank, of AIG…..
I don’t recall Turley having a hard on for those aholes even now like he has for Manafort… it’s telling… Turley Condons Financial Fraud is the only excuse I see.
I think this is the correct word for Financial Fraud that Turley maybe ok with: Hypothecation
Hypothecation – Investopedia
[Search domain http://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/hypothecation.asp%5D https://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/hypothecation.asp
Hypothecation occurs when an asset is pledged as collateral to secure a loan, without giving up title, possession or ownership rights, such as income generated by the asset.
The point is in the USA anyone ccan only pledge 1 piece of collatal to 1 party, but the City Of London is a spiecal case of Fanical Fruad, there USA Wallst Banks pledged 1 piece of collatal some around to a 100 others, includin pension funds, & then by 2009 those 100 that owned the collatal were told there collatal had went BK & they were just screwed.
Then DC/Wallst/Cof London covered it up.
Now that’s a Massive Fruad against Millions of People & nothing as piety as the crap Manaforts is charged with .

Well, since your addle-brained nonsense is so far removed from reality, I guess it’s a net benefit to the good folk of toad-swaller B.F.E. that you’re not in charge of anything more complicated than a door knob. Thanks for sharing though, here’s a cookie.
this is to “but if I were king of the world, I take care of all those meanies” okie dokie
I see your mom let you have your computer back
So far this guy has been prosecuted in Federal courts in both Virginia and D.C., and has been indicted in state court in N.Y. Which jurisdiction wants to take a swing at him next? And they say thereβs no double jeopardy! πΉπΉπΉπΉ
The wheelchair didn’t work, but ya gotta admit, some witch hunt huh?
Why do I have to admit what?
Which Witch was and which with was not being hunted?
Etc.
I will admit the Nuremberg Defense as defined is still valid whether or not it’s historical proponents failure to turn it around and that failure admitted or not.
“A plea of guilty coupled with a simultaneous plea for mercy.” The requirement is the charge has to be filed not just alleged. But since it has been alleged with out proofs on several meaning four to seven occasions and incidents one cannot be faulted for wondering why not and why is the coven’s cauldron stil bubbling if in truth there was nothing to keep it in flamed?
” Note that Old English had no gender-neutral words on principle, only neuter gender ones. Modern English witch is, in fact, gender-neutral,”
A statement found in wikpedia which points out this unsupported suggestion dates to early 1900’s. Coinciding with the terms ‘reframing’ and ‘redefining’ actually goes back to the last five hundred years of the BC Era or further as stated by primarily Greek Philosophers.
In any case the entire comment is unsupported,
Something found written in truth only in Walt Disney movies and those suffering from Ding Dong Dementia.
Kinda like the good nazi defence. Oh, but he or she was a good nazi. Therefore I enabled Trump I was a true believer. Your word salad means you are looking for a way out.
Jon, you are incredible. You say: ” It was a strong performance by the defense that hit the critical points in trying to avoid a consecutive sentence and a maximum sentencing.” The “strong performance” you are referring to is the heretofore unstated claim that Trump knew Manafort was working as an unregistered lobbyist for a foreign government, which is a violation of federal law. Trump claimed, after Manafort was indicted, that he barely knew the guy. This is, of course, consistent with the way he throws everyone under the bus whom he can no longer count on to cover for him. Now, not only are they tight, but Trump knew Manafort was violating federal law and gave him a pass, apparently. And, this is OK with you?
Like Manafort’s inept lawyers, you try to make some kind of point about the Russian collusion aspect of the Mueller investigation being implicated in today’s hearing: “Judge Jackson noted that there was no collusion established in this case β echoing the same statements out of Virginia.” That’s not at all what Judge Berman-Jackson said. Manafort’s “strongly performing” lawyers argued heavily in their sentencing brief that no Russian collusion was proven. Apparently, this was to serve as a feed-in for Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity tonight, but also, maybe they thought they could pull the wool over Judge Berman Jackson’s eyes, by the feeble and disingenuous argument that Manafort’s prosecution was politically-motivated. After all, they got away with it before, so why not try it again? Judge Berman-Jackson set them straight, but apparently you weren’t paying attention. Manafort’s indictment and convictions were totally unrelated to Russian collusion or politics. Collusion wasn’t charged, and Manafort was not convicted for it. Manafort’s deceit and witness tampering are the product of his bad character, not politics. Trump was not vindicated today.
Lastly, you provided fodder for the pardon or sentence commutation that is coming: “Trump could argue that the sentencing established that these crimes were not related to him and our collusion-related crimes. Thus, he could argue that Manafortβs health and his targeting by the Special Counsel warranted some form of clemency.” How pathetic, especially if it is true that Trump has always known about his campaign chairman violating federal law by lobbying for Ukraine without registering. Claiming that poor Manafort was “targeted” by the Special Counsel is also disingenuous. Pardoning Manafort or commuting his sentence under these circumstances would only add fuel to the collusion fire, so I sort of hope he does it.
Throughout there is evidence offered for such statements as “: Now, not only are they tight, but Trump knew Manafort was violating federal law and gave him a pass, apparently. And, this is OK with you?” Since it is NOT OK with me and probabably with any self governing citizen i’ll just point out the writer is itself gender neutral and an unproven quantity.
He is old. He will probably die in prison. Then you can all celebrate. And dance to the music!
I hope the Trumpster pardons him.
I wonder if there is a pardon in the future for this guy?
The NYAG has charged Paulie on 17 state charges. Heβs toast.
It’s a reasonable supposition that Letitia James is no better a lawyer than Marilyn Mosby. (While we’re at it, New York law treats this sort of recycling as double-jeopardy, and debars it. If James draws a legal professional, the charges are likely to be quashed).
You betcha, Christmas day just like Poppy Bush did with Iran Contra.
Turley’s obsession with Manafort is interesting.
Did you guys see where Stormy dumped Avenatti? Or maybe other way ’round. Anyways, now he’s going to represent the whistle-blower in the R. Kelly affair. Grad made good!!!!
Your “obsession” with Avenatti “is interesting.”
Avenatti was one of Turley’s prize pupils. Didn’t you know that?

Where double jeopardy is not allowed
Lest innocence goes free.
Re-frame the wording change the charge
It’s easy as can be.
Negate the ‘two’ by adding ‘one’

Nothing to halt your intentional crime.
Worry not if it doesn’t seem right
To change words definition.
In this fair land
Who’s to notice or not

Or what poor soul will suffer next
Shamed by evil precedent
And none remember it was only done
To play jokes on the other sides President.
Nor in years ahead hear your plea
To what purpose if your already dead..
Michael, you should write all of your posts in blank verse. Seriously.
And what is the sentence for the most egregious abuse of power and the most prodigious scandal in American political history?
The co-conspirators in the Obama Coup D’etat in America are:
Rosenstein, Mueller/Team, Comey, McCabe, Strozk, Page, Kadzic, Yates, Baker, Bruce Ohr,
Nellie Ohr, Priestap, Kortan, Campbell, Steele, Simpson, Joseph Mifsud, Stefan βThe Walrusβ Halper,
Kerry, Hillary, Huma, Mills, Brennan, Clapper, Lerner, Farkas, Power, Lynch, Rice, Jarrett, Sessions, Obama
et al.
You mean when they orchestrated announcing an investigation of Hillary 2 weeks before the election while hiding the investigation into Trump’s campaign?
Wait, that doesn’t make any sense.
“One of the most controversial pardons”! More controversial than Marc Rich on the last day in office for Billy boy? It didn’t seem to hamper Eric Holder who was part of the team that helped get that pardon! He became part of Obama’s gang that ended up breaking the law with Fast & Furious! Who went to jail for that escapade?
I say pardon him because thanks to NY state he will die in prison because that’s their goal here! Just like Robert Mueller let 2 men due in prison knowing they were innocent to cover himself from his screw ups with the Whitey Bulger case.
Of course not. untruths cloaked in lies rarely do. And since you cannot provide any proof let it be your neck.
Nothing short of amazing, when Trump & Company has lied, cheated, crapped, whatever, it is invariably because of something Obama did. With Hillary’s support. Dead on critique of the intelligence of the Trump supporters.
@George, you are right on and there are still morons (many here) who still believe the Russian collusion mantra. Two years of lies fed to America by the Dums and their press, absolute disgrace.
Jssssh, you need help.
Awesome! Please post more “material” Just. Like. This. The more of your fellow-traveler cohort who actually thinks any of this nonsense is real, the less damage your ilk can inflict on my beloved country before we true American Patriots can remedy the effects of the big con you types bought into.
this is to “I can’t respond because I lost my internet privileges again for being out of my room at count time” georgie – paulie
It’s not a light sentence. Nationally, the average prison inmate will serve 30 months ‘ere parole. and 60 per cent of all those convicted receive no time or time served in county jails. About 1/2 of those in prison are there for violent crimes, and are generally recidivists.
It’s a political sentence, and Manafort should receive a pardon.
Sure, what could be more innocent and appropriate than the President pardoning a possible co-conspirator? Voters will never notice because political opponents will be too polite to bring it up.
Bank fraud and not paying taxes is political?
Why not?
No, but meeting with other top campaign officials a short elevator ride from the candidate’s office to discuss with a Kremlin lawyer promised dirt on Hillary, a meeting for which the President later personally constructed an untrue cover story, is political.
Lying on tax returns, witness tampering and filing false financing statements under oath are NOT political. He got off easy, but the criminal justice system isn’t done with him yet.
Why the hell is not the real criminals,”treason,” the clan at the top of that party being taken to task…as Bill goes away laughing his ass off.
We don’t have the notes on what Putin told Trump to do in Helsinki – he covered his tracks like a pro – or any of those places, so the treason charge will be difficult.
Silly man, you have no right to know. Did you moan and groan and gripe and complain when Obama deliberately meet outside of the WH to conceal who he was meeting with? And that there are no bites of those meetings you can get your mitts on?
So, Obama met with Putin outside the WH?
And yet again when Obama/Hillary/DNC/RINOs/DOJ/FBI/Mueller&co & one of a long list their sedition & espionage against the US govt.

Medved was the elected president during a period when Russia was working with us on a SALT treaty and other mutual interests, and not trying to overturn our elections and those of our allies, while murdering civilians in Europe. Obama did not banish translators and other note takers as Trump has done like a pro on almost every opportunity, nor did Obama publicly announce that he believed Putin and not his own intelligence agencies.
Russia has no need to try to overturn our elections. The Dems have been doing that since November 2016.
Try 1909
Not being familiar with the criminal justice system, I have no idea how Manafortβs sentence compares with what is customary for the same offenses.
Does anyone know?
Don’t really know but lock him up! A completely corrupt and unethical individual who mixed with some extremely unsavoury characters. At last the law caught up with him – all thanks to the great work of Big Bob M.
Who has yet to do one single thing to follow the dictates of his mandate and still pretends to get the job done.
