Federal Judge T.S. Ellis III, a Reagan appointee, could be the ultimate nightmare for Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who may lose his legal case against Paul Manafort, according to an extraordinary May 4 exchange in the U.S. District Court for Eastern Virginia.
A dismissal could be a major wrecking ball to Mueller’s overall case in his Russian collusion case against President Donald Trump.
Amid Friday’s legal event, Ellis was best known for invoking an NFL term to dismiss Mueller’s legal posture, saying “C’mon man!” as he challenged the special counsel’s attempt to drag an unrelated bank fraud case back in 2005 to indict Manafort. Those charges are well beyond Mueller’s original mandate to investigate alleged collusion with Russia in 2016 and had to be dismissed, the judge said, according to the hearing transcript.

Man was that an ass woop’n by the judge!! I would have loved to have been in the court room to see that.
Your Honor, please don’t take any hunting trips in Texas.
Until Mueller’s witch hunt has been nullified and completely shut down and sent to the ash bin, we can safely say Mueller will keep trying to slip something past in his never ending goal of getting Trump removed. Funding for the Mueller “circus” needs to be ended.
Can someone explain something to me. I wonder why the judge would give these guys two weeks to come up with their orders from DOJ.
Can’t all sorts of chicanery happen in two weeks? I would think the orders from Rosenstein would be available almost immediately.
Judge Ellis is courageous, a Patriot and loyal to both the Constitution. He will go down in history as such.
Mueller and his band of hapless corrupticrats? Not so well.
I hope that’s what it comes down to. I’ll be on a flight to Vegas to take those odds.
I hope that Admiral Rogers stays safe until then.
No canoe trips. No bike rides on busy roads. No visits to Fort Marcy Park, etc.
Mueller's report will persist beyond the termination of the SC. This doesn't wind down until the press gets tired of flogging it.
The judge will simply order the case be removed from Mueller’s pervue and placed in the local federal jurisdiction. Still the judge’s words are a wake up call against the covert coup.
Thank God for this Federal Judge.
Doing the work Sessions refuses to do.
I’m confident that he can take care of himself, and won’t make any fatal mistakes like Justice Scalia did.
He is a nightmare for Frau Mueller like Freddie Krueger!!
Every time I see a picture of Crapper, that song “Dueling Banjos” from Deliverance lives in my head all day.
“Thank you for your arguments,” he told Dreeben. “They were entertaining.”
BOOM. Mic drop!
The coup already happened on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009.
The conspiracy to install the Kenyanesian Usurper is wider than you imagine.
