Just think this is going on while we have the 2nd Amendment to defend our self against a tyrannical government.

Watch this Judge's decision very closely.

Mueller Prosecutors: Paul Manafort Can't Argue Our Charges Are Related to 2016 Campaign

Prosecutors for special counsel Robert Mueller asked a federal court Friday to bar the defense for Paul Manafort from arguing charges against their client were brought because of his role in Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.

"Manafort should ... be precluded from arguing that he has been singled out for prosecution because of his position in the campaign of then-candidate Donald J. Trump, or otherwise asserting that he has been selectively prosecuted by the Special Counsel's Office," court filings obtained by Politico said.

Team Mueller also asked the judge in Alexandria, Virginia to prevent Manafort's legal team from arguing the special counsel exceeded the scope of its investigation into possible collusion between Russia and Trump campaign officials.

"Any such argument would be misleading to the extent it suggests that the Department ceased investigating Manafort before the appointment of the Special Counsel and had decided not to bring charges against him," wrote attorneys working under Mueller. "It would also not make a fact more or less true. Instead, it would again invite jurors to consider impermissible factors."

People sleep peacefully at night because there are a few tough men prepared to do violence on their behalf.

A foolish man complains about his torn pockets.

A wise man uses it to scratch his balls.

WOW! Arrested for collusion? We all know it, but he can't defend himself against it?
Mueller knows if the judge allows it, it destroys his entire case against collusion and throws all of it back on the Dims.

Dang!  Yah gotta give em credit for trying...  had this been filed with the DC Circuit, where the judge is a female Obama
appointee.. it might win.   However, it's been filed in the Eastern District of Virginia,  Think that judge is Ellis (not sure), but he
has already told them to off once.

Mueller, a lawyer, said this ?????
Our legacy through English Common Law
makes available three options to defendants:
* They can defend themselves.
* The can hire an Attorney for defense.
* They can request a Court to provide an Attorney.

Who can blame him? So far the whole collusion thing has gone tits up. 13 Russians he is stunningly not ready to prosecute and who will never step foot on American soil much less an American courtroom and a few process crimes.
