A Kangaroo Court is a sham legal proceeding or trial, one that denies due process and fairness in the name of expediency. The outcome of such a trial is essentially decided in advance for the purpose of providing a conviction; going through the motions of procedure is only done to make it "official". The defendant will likely be allowed no defense nor be allowed to call witnesses, present evidence or make objections. If they are allowed, they will be summarily overruled by the Hanging Judge that usually presides over the trial in question. Especially nasty versions may even slap the accused with "contempt of court" penalties for even trying to mount a defense. If the trial results in a death sentence, some people will use the term "judicial murder" to describe it.
..... especially in countries ruled by dictators, who are fond of putting dissidents through "show trials" as a prelude to execution. The etymology is unknown, though many (mostly wrong) suggestions have been made.

Catch-22 .
Where is the special prosecutor for Hillary, Lynch, Lerner, Rice, Podesta, Maxine Waters, Axelrod, Huma,the Clinton Global Foundation...the pay to play while in office.....Outrageous!!!
Muller has no integrity....he is a team player for the left and the left only.
Apparently the laws are just for one side NOT the other......Call your Elected to stop this Kangaroo Court to get rid of the outsider....President Trump....a crime in it self....
In Mueller’s world, witness cooperation means “Say what I tell you to say or else!”
Call your Elected
Yea right Murphy, Blumenthall and Ichabod DeLora
Another story about your hero, Mueller. Better get in here and cheer him on—he’s your best bet to sink Trump.

Once again..as I have continued to say..
It is not just about Trump
This makes me so ashamed of our government
And the FBI? Have turned into stormtroopers and secret police
The Attorney General? Does nothing
The GOP? Does nothing
Yea, right. Just keep telling yourself that. Sooner or later you might just believe you.
This is not a normal legal case. This case is political show trial, so you have to use political means.
At some point, Manafort should be absolutely public about EVERYTHING that is said to him - any offers, threats, or blackmail.
As a political event - so it should be treated as one.
So Mueller was hired because...not Trump.
Tell me you didn’t just say that.
Well, no; actually you can’t deny it, because you just said exactly that. And it was bizarre.
Once again. ..it is not all about Trump.
Ever seen what happens In a RICO Investigation?
So Mueller was hired to *not* go after Trump.
I see.
Parse my words fake lawyer
It is not just about Trump
Read that sentence again for comprehension
It is conceivable that X can do Y without T ever knowing anything about it...or not
It is conceivable that RC could post X without ever having a clue.
“Manafort should be public...”
I hope he has it all on recordings.
Or maybe that’s s why they raided his home!
Were you a receptionist at that law firm?
I went to that link and I didn’t see anything about kangaroo courts.
What they are obviously trying to do is find a lever on Manafort so that he will roll over and turn state evidence. But this development has the potential for leading the investigation off on a tangent, and I suspect that is really what Trump and company would want.
This circus needs to fold tents and leave town
