The federal case is falling apart. That's why the judge to grant immunity to five more persons.

Stay tuned.

The judge is just making sure there is nothing to appeal after conviction.

Just wow. There is a fundamental flaw in your logic. Can you see it?

This circumstance would support the judges reasoning and make it likely that the judge is citing missteps and problems with their case in order to declare a mistrial.

A mistrial is a term that refers to a trial that is ended before its conclusion because of some error or problem with the trial itself. A mistrial must be declared by the judge overseeing the trial, and renders the entire trial invalid. This is most likely to occur when the judge feels that the problem makes it impossible to ensure a fair verdict is reached. This allows the parties to start over again with a new trial if they want, though the circumstances may lead the parties to not request a new trial.

This is a thread on the Manafort trial, I think there might have been one thread on Clinton.

When you run out of facts just deflect.
