Any idea what this means?

I’m guessing that the Deep State has found something on the judge, and is going to John Roberts the guy.

That’s how they roll.

Mueller has asked for the judge to be removed.

On Thursday, prosecutors questioned a loan officer for Citizen's Bank of New York, asking about Manafort's 2016 loan application that the bank rejected. U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III interjected: "You might want to spend time on a loan that was granted."

"reliance" is a key element of civil and criminal fraud. Furthermore criminal fraud requires demonstration of criminal intent, e.g. did he intend to take the money and run rather than pay it back per the terms of the loan.

We need not go there, however because the bank rejected the application and therefore did not rely on it. Whatever your view of Manafort's effort, he took nothing from the bank.

Judge needs a aspirin, Prosecution needs their shot of whiskey.

Rumor is a juror misconduct issue.

Perhaps it has to do with the lawyer the judge appointed to redact Mueller’s evidence. Maybe he saw something he wasn’t supposed to see and told the judge.

[Bonemaker]

I hope the judge throws the whole damn thing out of court and declares a mistrial. And censures Mueller.

[SERKIT]

If you layer in Rudy’s comments that the entire Mueller Mole Hill is about to dramatically implode into a black sink hole, maybe the judge was tipped off to stall this sham trial while the underlying dung heap fails to act as a solid foundation. And, yes, I love mixed metaphors.

They had to RECESS to consider this BREAKING NEWS: It is worth noting that both Disqus and Fakebook CENSOR any mention of a website, www.CodeIsFreeSpeech.com that provides FREE downloads of 3D-printable firearm blueprints. And, since Facebook logins are so prevalent for posting commentary across the Internet, they are very effectively suppressing this “Forbidden knowledge” almost EVERYWHERE. Please go to the website, download some or all 10 of the free blueprints, and then, repost it to your friends and across the Internet, to the extent you can. Strike a BLOW against Fakebook and judicial CENSORSHIP! Support TWO amendments at once, the First and the Second!

Just another case of a horse’s head found under the blankets...

FBI just threatened judge... “You know, if we can frame the president, we can certainly frame you. Think about it.”

[outofsalt]

I thought that team Mueller did not want to give the defense some evidence that they wish to keep classified. Did I hear that wrong?
The judge will order the vacating of all charges.
