    William Barr’s Justice Department Is Now Openly Running Legal Interference for Paul Manafort

    Donald Trump’s Department of Justice has decided to run interference for Paul Manafort,

    protecting him from harsh imprisonment and

    even questioning the validity of charges brought against him by state prosecutors.

    This effort to aid the president’s
    loyal associate behind bars is a startling escalation of Attorney General William

    Barr’s campaign to help Trump and his confederates evade consequences for their misdeeds.

    holy , the authoritarian corruption and politicization of Federal law enforcement.

    These Repug assholes know no limits, have no respect for the law and ins utions.

    I suppose turncoat / flipper Cohen won't get Barr's favors.

    “It is very unusual –

    perhaps entirely unprecedented –

    for such a high-ranking DOJ official to be involved in the specific prison designation for a particular inmate,”

    "“Calling this highly unusual doesn’t even begin to capture

    how strange it is for the no. 2 official at DOJ to intervene in a state custody issue,”"

    “Is this a tacit admission by the DOJ & AG Barr that Rikers is not fit to house human beings?

    Because there are thousands of human beings currently caged there, who need immediate federal intervention too,”

    “I have a request for a Manafort Intervention for this client of mine who right now is jailed on Rikers Island because he cannot afford $3500.

    It’s too inhumane for Manafort.

    It’s too inhumane for him.”

    Chris propping himself up on a senile Lou Dobbs.

    Classic Chris, pure propaganda magpie, with no own take, hiding behind memes and RTs.

    nothing in that tweet made any sense. If any evidence was false it would've come up in trail where, you know, evidence is evaluated.

    Eh, Hannity and Rush like to emphasize they're not journalists whenever their kayfabe is exposed.

    Hannity coordinating with his guests to present the spin most favorable to the GOP is hardly surprising.

    If the shoe were on the other foot: anguished cries of MEDIA BIAS.

    Ex-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort has been released from prison to serve the remainder of his sentence at home due to Covid-19 fears.
    He had served a little over a year of a seven-and-a-half year sentence in jail.
