rest of headlind:....on 'street cred,' Trump ex-lawyer says.

Video.

Former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort is being held in "solitary confinement" after his bail was revoked, in an "outrageous violation" of his civil liberties, former Trump lawyer John Dowd told Fox News on Tuesday.

"Paul is in solitary confinement for his own safety from the general prison population," Dowd said. "The warden is concerned that someone would violently attack Paul just for street cred.

These Progressives are killing this country....Paul Manafort is being used as a propaganda tool....with U.S District Judge Amy Berman Jackson puppet for Obama and the Deep State. Manaforts civil rights are being denied...guilty until proven innocent?

Sounds like the warden isn’t a team player. Gestapo Mueller will need to have Manafort moved to a different facility so he can avoid having to actually try the case.

he could be in solitary confinement for his safety or he could be put up in a hotel...

if he was a plant, the DS doesn't want anybody to talk to him....

either way, he's in a bad spot....

All President Trump needs to do is tell the judge, if you continue to hold Manafort without bail for X number of days is will issue a pardon.

He shouldn’t be in jail.

But solitary can mean different things. Is he in a sensory deprivation situation, or does he just have a single cell, without a room mate?

People have been known to die in solitary. So, it might also have been done to keep him from talking.

So why doesn’t Trump issue a real pardon of consequence for Mr. Manafort? I’m glad he seems to have a considerate warden, in the meantime.

These Progressives are killing this country...
*********************************
They’re killing the West! Manafort and Tommy Robinson have both been jailed to advance the progressive cause.

The Obama-appointed female judge who is taking Manafort’s rights away is making a mockery out of the judicial system. She ought to be jailed for her ignorance and abuse of the law. And through this Hillary goes merrily on her way.

Here’s man who bears the entire weight of the US federal government and the endless rage of a bunch of crybaby Democrats who can’t get over the fact that they lost a election that they rigged to win even with the help of the FBI, the DOJ, the CIA, the NSA...

The American Left has to go.

They gotta go.

It means 23 hour a day lockdown, 1 hour outside in a cage, and the people that want to murder him can still get to him at any appearance he has to attend, or at any other chance encounter where guards might “slip up”.

What corrupt sleazy thug Mueller is trying to do to Manafort is the same thing Putin did to Sergei Magnitsky.

Magnitsky was considered a political enemy of the Putin regime, just like Manafort is considered a political enemy of the Clinton/Obama/DeepState regime.

Magnitsky was brought up for charges on white collar crimes by the Putin regime, just like Manafort was brought up for charges on white collar crimes by the Clinton/Obama/DeepState regime.

Magnitsky was being pressured by the Putin government to change his story of claimed government corruption. Similarly, Manafort is being pressured to manufacture a story of crimes by Trump in order to allow the corrupt Clinton/Obama/DeepState regime to remove Trump.

Magnitsky was jailed before trial. Same with Manafort.

Magnitsky was beaten up in jail and denied medical treatment. He died.

This is the threat sleazy corrupt thug Mueller is holding over Manafort's head, that Manafort will end up in same way unless he agrees to participate in crafting something corrupt Mueller can use against Trump.

Wow! Unbelievable.

I don’t think he committed any crime that merits prison. He made some paperwork errors maybe. Thos types of infractions are settled with fines.

Manafort rots in a hell hole while thousands of others who did worse are free.

No, that’s what the deep state wants and it may be a factor why they are abusing this man’s rights, to lure the President into pardoning him.

This is starting to feel like a set up so that Mueller can tell him to testify against Trump in what ever way the Mueller coup plotters want or they will have him killed; sort of like the Tommy Robinson situation in Great Britain.

This is Andrew Weissmann's MO. He did the same thing to innocent men he wanted to break (white collar executives).

Weissmann is a POS. He deserves to locked up for life himself.

Oh, and he is also a closet homo (no joke).

People have been known to die in solitary.


March 9, 1998 NYT said James B. McDougall ,one of the Clintons former allies who turned against him was in solitary and proclaimed he was going to lift off the burden of lying from himself and tell all he knew the next day. Some reported he had an injection of a heart destroying medication that killed him before morning. NYT merely said his loss was a blow to prosecutors who needed him to corroborate new evidence in the main Whitewater case.

For his protection. Right. If he won’t perjure himself to satisfy and gratify Herr Mueller, then he must die.
