Add the Clintons to the list ,LOL
Yet The Butcheress of Benghazi walks free and unencumbered.
Funny how the narrative has changed.
Mueller guilty of same.
FARA is hardly ever used to bring criminal charges, with fewer than ten cases and one conviction since 1966 for working for foreign political interests without filing paperwork with the Justice Department. Experts see the law’s use against Manafort as a sign that may change.
Its just being used now to get testimony against Trump, his son and SIL. Its rather typical of a probe to use wedge to get to bigger fish.
Where would the statute of limitations come in on these 12 charges
Wow - Las Vegas, Hollywood, and now Manafort...what luck for the Clinton/0bama syndicate to stay off the front page!
I shudder to think what the Hillary worshippers will conjure up after this Manafort thing dies out.
As more and more are indited President Trump is in real trouble. Mueller sights are on President Trump impeachment and the more he builds lies and using the MSM to promote he will probably succeed. President Trump just doesn’t get it.
What would we do without experts?
That's because FARA is a "cold war / red scare" relic of dubious constitutionality. I imagine a good lawyer could get it tossed on "freedom of association" grounds.
So, since he was also indicted, who is Rick Gates and how does he fit into the picture?
[The admin would not let me start a vanity thread on this lost soul.]
The FARA charges are the least of the problem for Manafort and would probably never have been brought up if not for the money laundering and tax evasion. Manafort seems to have totally screwed himself out of greed, not politics.
Haiti and Panama....
Haiti and Panama Papers...
Former Secretary of State and Democratic 2016 Presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton condemned “outrageous tax havens and loopholes ... in Panama and elsewhere” at a Pennsylvania AFLCIO event. Clinton added that “some of this behavior is clearly against the law, and everyone who violates the law anywhere should be held accountable”, but it was “scandalous how much is actually legal”. Clinton promised that “We are going after all these scams and make sure everyone pays their fair share here in America.”
