It appears that Manafort is being set up to get the Whitey Bulger treatment.

Riker’s Island is a jail, it’s not a prison.

He’s under indictment in NY for state crimes not federal. He’ll be a t Rikers until his NY case is settled. Unfortunately Trump can’t pardon him for state crimes. His best bet is to get an acquittal on the NY crimes. Hopefully, he gets a good attorney. The whole thing is a miscarriage of justice,

The DOJ is doing exactly this concerning Alabama’s prisons.

***He’s under indictment in NY for state crimes not federal. He’ll be at Rikers until his NY case is settled***

When Manafort was sentenced by a federal judge the Dems/libs were furious; they demanded a life sentence -- i.e. they wanted Manafort to die in prison! {{Manafort's partner, John Podesta [Hildy's political guru]), is walking around free as a bird.}}

They have found a way to make that happen. ⚰️ The people who oppose us demand privilege and are extremely dangerous... not running for cover... i.e. Adam Schiff. Eric Swelledhead has said that he would kindly persuade us to give up our Constitutional rights - and then, if we do not, he will kill us! Nancy Pelosi said that people who did not vote Democrat will pay for it.

***Looks to me to have something to do with his charges in NY State. Since it is mortgage “fraud” probably some trumped (no pun) up charges to make him liable to pressure***

Read my #51.

Either they want him to go stir crazy in solitary or it’s easier to get to him with no witnesses there. Either way, the evils doers are up to their eyeballs in this.

Since the whole spying episode the deep dive into Manafort’s privacy is falling apart at the seams now -— at what point exactly does Manafort’s investigation-trial-incarceration become “fruit of the poison tree”???

I think Manafort is the only guy who has not sent me an email asking for money.

Leave the poor guy ALONE.

He’s being held there pending trial on state charges. Rikers is not a Federal prison.

"Rikers Island is a hell hole. "
Even the Dims are planning to close it as unrepairable.

Me? I can see it (huge complex of buildings) being leveled and then opened up for developers - LOTS of real estate next to NYC with a bridge, water, power, sewer and parking already included?

Thank you RINO party for sitting back while people like Paul and Stone all get locked up and destroyed while the biggest crook of all Hillary waltzes around free as a bird bashing the F out of Trump and flaming the party.


Now you are over the target. The Mueller Coup never happens without the support of the GOP. Graham is still to this day shining Mueller’s boots and defacto endorsing his police state tactics.

The people who oppose us??? Schiff and the rest of the Democrats have been aided and abetted by the GOP at ever turn. The Mueller Coup and its political prisoners only exist because elected GOP members publicly threatened POTUS not to fire him for cause.

Remember how Mueller & his minions got rid of the inconvenient Whitey Bulger?

This is the same thing, but even worse, since Manafort is at the very worst, a white collar criminal.

I predict he will be dead by the end of the week, if this transfer takes place.
