He had 15 foreign bank accounts but checked the box no, beyond that why the need for that many overseas accounts. There is more than just tax evasion.

Are you reading the same news as everyone else?

HIs partner confirmed that he and Manafort conducted CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. At least 15 times.

His bookkeeper, testified SHE COOKED THE BOOKS.

In what world, does that seem like it's moving towards being thrown out.

If it IS, by some strange action, people should be outraged at the "justice" system, NOT celebrating it.

And the judge is just being a judge in a fast moving docket. The prosecution is utterly destroying the defense at the moment. There was even a real honest to gosh "ah ha!" moment when it was revealed that Gates was embezzling money from Manafort. Which makes it pretty much impossible to try and claim Gates was the mastermind behind it all when he had to steal tiny amounts of the accounts. NOT something the mastermind of something like this would do. And Manaforts defense team was relying on that to try and give Manafort a tiny chance. Thats gone now.

Manafort is toast.
I wish I could have seen their faces when that has revealed.

The evidence shows Manafort’s guilt. Those around Manafort are admitting guilt. Yup, this case is getting thrown out.

HONEST.
It’s not quite the same, if Gates lies he goes away for years.

Eh, I wouldn't be spending that yuge win yet, there AADAD. Things are just heating up, and it looks like Gates is singing like a Robin.

Big question is, if Manafort goes down, will you be man enough to come on and admit you were wrong ? If we were wrong, we will certainly admit we called it wrong too.
