Trump Campaign Manager Manafort’s Trial Halted Mysteriously for 5 Hours

“Paul Manafort’s criminal trial on bank- and tax-fraud charges, speeding along for nearly two weeks, came to a mysterious halt Friday morning as the federal judge and lawyers for both sides huddled out of earshot of the public,” Politico reports.

“Rumors swirled through the ninth-floor courtroom in Alexandria, Virginia, about what the delay could mean — from a looming guilty plea from the former Trump campaign manager, to Judge T.S. Ellis III conceding his second mistake in two days, to an issue with the jury — but there were no clear answers.”

My read from different articles is that Mueller's team is quite concerned the Judge's doubts about the ethics of Mueller's case has prejudiced the jury.

At some point any reasonable person looking at what is going on here has to be concerned. The leadership of the DOJ and FBI have been so complicit in dishonest schemes you wonder if anything they are doing right now can be considered legitimate.

The swamp needs to be cleaned out.

This is all independent of the guilt of Trump and his team.

A crooked FBI is not cleansed by a guilty team Trump.

There's a Russian Jack Ruby in the wings trying to get into the courtroom to shoot the bastage.

Maybe, because they are too dumb to use evidence without basis on the case. The judge raised the question why the prosecution is even using a loan Manafort applied for but, was denied! He raised questions on evidence the prosecution is using and wasting time at it! It seems they are throwing everything and anything that they think will stick! Yeah, all jurors are too stupid not to figure that one out!
