BREAKING: Federal Court Judge Issues Shock-Verdict On Manafort’s Witness Tampering

Trump’s former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, appeared in court on Friday for a hearing about the terms of his bond agreement. After evidence was found that he allegedly attempted to coordinate with witnesses and influence their testimonies, he faced the revocation of his home incarceration status.

Instead of waiting out his trial at home, Manafort now begins a long wait in jail for his day in court. Endless delays by his attorneys and their attempts to stall the legal justice system from doing its job is sure to end now that Manafort can’t sit at home interfering with witnesses and obstructing justice.

Trump has, at various times, insisted that Manafort did nothing wrong, downplayed his role in the presidential campaign he managed, and called the investigation into his corrupt dealings and dishonesty with the FBI just more “witch hunts” by Democrats determined to derail the Trump presidency.

He’s also blamed the FBI for not informing him that his campaign manager was under criminal investigation, something that law enforcement does not do during an active probe.

Just like every other news story that reveals the corruption within the Trump campaign, the lies and deflection began as soon as the public learned of it. Asked repeatedly whether he would consider pardoning Manafort if convicted, Trump has refused to deny that he would do so for either Manafort, his associate Rick Gates, or Trump’s own personal attorney, Michael Cohen, all of whom face legal troubles of their own.

No matter how many times Trump insists his campaign team did nothing wrong, the guilty pleas, indictments, and cooperating witnesses continue to prove him wrong.
