A note from the jury
There is a note from the jury in the Manafort trial, but no details yet on what the note says.

Prosecutors and defense attorneys are all in the courtroom.

The jury has left the jury room, but is not in the courtroom -- the judge is not in the courtroom yet to call them in.

The jury was in court Tuesday for less than five minutes. As jurors filed in, most took seats towards the judge's end of the jury box, consolidating themselves as they did for the first time Monday. However, on Tuesday, one juror left a seat vacant between him and his nearest colleague.

That doesn't sound good.

Its CNN....take it with grain of salt. I think he is found guilty on most counts and will get persecuted to life in prison and then pardoned immediately rightfully so by President Trump just to show the Mueller witch hunt clowns who is in charge in this country!

If Manafort is found guilty on 17 counts I predict that Trump will say:

1- so unfair - who cares if he stole $$
2- the jury is obviously 12 Angry Democrats
3- I never even met Manafort - I couldn’t even pick him out of a lineup
4- this has nuthin to do with the Witch Hunt
5- I hope this doesn’t mean that they’ll go after me for tax fraud

No I was laughing that they couldn't come to a consensus I KNEW it was on maybe 1 charge maybe all 18 even if its ONE charge it harms the Mueller witch hunt. As I said doesn't matter President Trump will pardon him as this was a persecution based on political views to try and take down President Trump and its failed.
