We have political prisoners in this country. Just ask Scooter Libby.
No collusion.
The right to be confronted by your accused. This POS continues to operate as if he is running the star chamber.
how bout those 12 russians putin invited you to interview?
Sounds like blackmail under color of law.
Poor Manafort. Not necessarily defending him, but he has become Mueller’s only hope in not disgracing himself.
Hey, at least I took Manafort down.
I cracked him like a walnut in solitary for so long...
Mueller, you scrounge...
Mueller made the request in a court filing Tuesday afternoon, which also requests that the identity of the potential witnesses remain under seal.

Ahhh. Secret unnamed witnesses. Why that’s Constitutional, right?

Immunity for Podesta’s??
“intelligence agencies that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election on his behalf”
What agencies concluded it was on Trumps behalf?
Mueller and Rosenstein are intent on running an opaque Kafkaesque Star Chamber. It is an insult to American justice. Show us everything.
BOy that mueller team leaks like a sieve.
How is it that if a drug dealer testifies against a drug lord, the testimony is questioned and sometimes invalidated because the drug dealer could just be trying to cut a deal to save themselves, but these kinds of immunity deals are acceptable? How is it that the left think that information gathered from waterboarding is invalid, because it encourages false testimony - but information gathered from a plea deal with immunity is valid?
I am shocked I tell you. Completely shocked /s
This is way off what he is supposed to be doing or ,as the Federal District Judge in Virginia said “ Is he trying to construct testimony from the defendant” i,e suborn Perjury. No body cares about a supposed violation of a 2006 registration that nobody ever did. Trump will pardon him for sure. This is straight gestapo crap.
Never let a good crisis go to waste. Use it grant Immunity to deep state crooks.
I thought you got immunity because you are the guilty small fish helping take down the big fish. Is Manafort somehow now a big fish? and what that hell are is Mueller doing letting five guilty parties cop a plea? Sounds way more like collusion to falsely indict.
I’m looking forward to someday hearing people testify against MUELLER.
from Wikipedia article on “Show Trials”
A show trial is a public trial in which the judicial authorities have already determined the guilt of the defendant. The actual trial has as its only goal the presentation of both the accusation and the verdict to the public so they will serve as both an impressive example and a warning to other would-be dissidents or transgressors. Show trials tend to be retributive rather than corrective and they are also conducted for propagandistic purposes. The term was first recorded in the 1930s.
Show trials were a significant part of Joseph Stalin’s regime. The Moscow Trials of the Great Purge period (1937–38) in the Soviet Union are characteristic.
The authorities staged the actual trials meticulously. If defendants refused to “cooperate”—i.e., to admit guilt for their alleged and mostly fabricated crimes—they did not go on public trial, but suffered execution nonetheless.
Solid public evidence of what really happened during the Moscow Trials came to the West through the Dewey Commission (1937). After the collapse of the Soviet Union (1991), more information became available. This discredited the New York Times reporter Walter Duranty, who claimed at the time that these trials were actually fair.
Made up crap, too, is my guess.
