It's only more money for his lawyers, seeing what sticks.

Might as well give it a shot before you go away to prison Manny.

Not by Mueller. What is the relevance? It won’t even delay his case. I would assume a deputy AG has his case.

Fuck him, revoke his plea deal and screw him to the wall.

Mueller had to act within a time limit or statute of limitations would have barred prosecution. Manafort knows this charge cannot be brought again if he can get rid of it, no matter how guilty and how much evidence there is. He almost got off scott free on that but #TrumpRussia intervened. Manafort should have stayed in the background like Roger Stone, working in secret.

parties being sued are legally immune from such litigation. Anyone up on ConLaw or ?

Manafort doesn't want to move into the new Trump Tower any sooner than possible.

he doesn't find the accommodations acceptable.

They are being sued as representatives of the government. Their names are on the suit, but the intent is to compell the government to do something. This is common practice when suing the government.

And judicial sanctions.

It’s got some sound bites for Faux News, but it’s mostly nonsense. The brief actually manages to argue against itself, which is... weird. Not in a “state weaknesses in my own argument and preemptively argue against them” sort of way, but in an actual, self-defeating sort of way.

Everything you need to know about why this is a bullshit motion is actually in the motion, unrefuted.

If not Mueller, Schneiderman will bring charges. Manaforts manhood is in a vise.

Poor baby .... laundered millions of rubles and going to live in a tiny cell.

Mueller should send him a condolence bouquet....with a little poison ivy mixed in.

...and keep people watching him in case he slips off that anklet.

seriously.

for this nonsense.

In a usual court proceeding, Manafort would have to explain in substantial detail how Mueller was exceeding his authority. That is, what specific matters was Mueller looking into that are beyond his jurisdiction. The non-specific nature of Manafort's appeal to authority (blanket citation of the Declaratory Judgment Act and the "long-recognized authority of the federal courts" ) indicates a weak legal argument.

That being said, all it will take is one sympathetic judge who welcomes our incipient fascist regime to buy this pile of hogwash and issue a ruling against Mueller.

If he stalls long enough, he could be the last conspirator standing.

He's:

What a joke

This is also a counter espionage investigation. Not just s criminal investigation.


That's the kicker, fool.
