Were the Podesta brothers tipped off?
American Thinker ^ | November 1, 2017 | Monica Showalter

As President Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, goes down in the first indictment from the Mueller special prosecution, on charges of failing to file as a registered foreign agent, there's been speculation about why Tony Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager's brother, didn't get indicted, too. He was involved with the same pro-Russia Ukrainian think tank as Manafort.

We’re quickly reaching the point where the only remedy will be erecting Historys’ largest gallows in the middle of Washington D.C. and using them 24/7.

The retroactive FARA registration and the rarity of any enforcement of the FARA laws, as well as the possibility of a tipoff to the the Podestas suggest that this Special Counsel investigation has always been a witch hunt, not a quest for justice. Every one of these faultlines gives Manafort a case for the dismissal of the charges against him on technicalities. If it's found that the Podestas were tipped off by Mueller's office, they most certainly should be. And whoever did the tipping off is the one who ought to be in the dock.

uhhhh yes of course they were tipped off.

Also..... please consider helping Jim R out with a monthly donation. Mine is not the largest, but is there.

Every time I go to another site - even Lucianne, Breitbart you get tons of pop ups. Jim does not sell ads.

Can we all help? Please spread the word. I’d be lost without Freeper page...

My 2 cents.

John Podesta’s tirade against Trump’s characterization of the Podesta Group looked a lot like a guilty plea.

THat’s not the relevant question, the relevant question is WHO tipped them off. They should be prosecuted.

Yes, but they have really bound up Trump. Neither Sessions nor Rosenstein would ever prosecute Mueller. In fact, at this stage I wonder who could.

No doubt in my mind that they were tipped off.

So, the media would have us believe that Manafort is facing 40 years of jail because he didn’t cure his problem by submitting late paperwork?

Maybe it’s the money laundering, although these days, “registering as a foreign agent” sounds inflammatory.

Special independent prosecutor needs to investigate this entire Uranium One scandal and the Justice Department not notifying SCFIUS and Congress of the criminal activity surrounding this sale and the Obama administration allowing this to go forward.
