Once again, sleazy influence peddler extraordinaire Paul Manafort claims he can't find a jury of his peers in the home of sleazy influence peddlers.https://twitter.com/MikeScarcella/status/1034810658842394626 …

Somehow Manafort's lawyers couldn't find a single news article to cite for their claim that the EDVA trial coverage focused on the Presidential campaign.pic.twitter.com/yKfs9t2qcM
Manafort trial needs to be in Roanoke bc: 1) Press correctly reported that he had been indicted for a(nother) crime 2) Trump is an idiot gaslighterpic.twitter.com/rHFdERE7et
Once again, Manafort's lawyers can't find a single citation to support their claim that a guilty verdict resulted in intensely negative media coverage that reached new heights.pic.twitter.com/9ltodDGna2
Give or take 100,000, you mean. I'm surprised Manafort didn't cite Trump claiming Google is biased against his convicted former campaign managers.pic.twitter.com/gk8vsWGoA5
Interjection: Amy Berman Jackson was skeptical about this motion because -- as she noted -- the coverage of Manafort's corruption was national. This (and much of the rest of the argument) actually supports her point. Hell, I bet Roanoke even has access to The Google!!!
Again, on top of not supporting the claim that the most prejudicial coverage was in the last week, Manafort SEEMS to be making the case that Mueller has moved very quickly, contrary to POTUS' claims.pic.twitter.com/kozuZckVC5
Anyway, this is literally just a cut-and-paste from the EDVA motion, w/o any updating to support the new claim (that being convicted of 8 crimes gives you bad press). They are SO dialing things in at this point.
Law twitter: Can we discuss the timing of plea negotiations WHILE on verdict watch in EDVA? https://www.wsj.com/articles/manafort-sought-deal-in-next-trial-but-talks-broke-down-1535404819 … Making a plea deal only makes sense if you're sure Manafort is guilty in EDVA, right?
One more thing abt Manafort's change of venue request; recall that the influence peddling he's on trial for in the DC case is a bipartisan affair, featuring a guy named Podesta. So why should Hillary support in DC matter?
Wait, is that really true?
Which part?
I believe it is roughly true. Photo editors have been complaining about his low profile all along. He was photographed once crossing a street and once in 35X at National.
This is glib, but Mueller has the ethics Comey thinks of himself as having
Lol “Mr. Manafort is the first person tried by the Special Counsel’s office” he’s the first person tried because everyone else was smart enough to cop a plea...That should literally dismiss this motion on its own merit. Especially after his conviction last week.
