- 00:00:42 47 months is insanely light. Absolutely nuts. WTF!?!
- 00:02:09 That is just ridiculously low given what the counts were here. Judge is clearly sending a message he thought this whole thing was bullshit.
- 00:11:53 Retweeted @ScottHech 00:09:35 My colleague’s client today was forced to plead out to the mandatory minimum of 3.5 years (5 months shy of Manafort) for simple possession of a firearm. No allegation of use. Prosecution wouldn’t drop top count after a hearing. Best they had been willing to do was 2 years. in reply to ScottHech
- 00:18:41 Retweeted @tribelaw 00:16:46 Judge Ellis’s assessment that Manafort led an “otherwise blameless life” was proof that he’s unfit to serve on the federal bench. I’ve rarely been more disgusted by a judge’s transparently preferential treatment to a rich white guy who betrayed the law and the nation.

i had been threatened w/ 27 years for filing a false affidavit + other actions trying desperately to keep an affair private. https://t.co/hiwBur2Hll - 04:10:34 Retweeted @WotDpod 01:39:57 Today’s episode of popular Wiki of the Day is on the article Alex Trebek.Listen to the new episode here: https://t.co/4nuzvzVgCx

- 04:39:27 Retweeted @sarahkendzior 2019-03-07 23:55:50 As Roy Cohn — the ruthless mafia lawyer who mentored Trump and introduced him to Manafort and Stone — once said: “I don’t want to know what the law is, I want to know who the judge is.” https://t.co/YbL45l2zcf
- 06:12:17 Retweeted @ezekilov 00:50:32 To put in context just how ridiculous the Manafort sentence is:There’s over 2000 federal prisoners serving life without parole for nonviolent crimes such as:
Attempting to cash a stolen check
Possessing stolen scrap metal
Siphoning gasoline from a truck

- 16:10:40 Retweeted @dangillmor 15:44:34 People who are surprised by the Manafort sentence need only look back at the judge’s virulently pro-defense and anti-prosecution behavior during the trial. Few articles (that I’ve seen) today note that context. Ex: https://t.co/igtLPNjZ9j Missing context: https://t.co/D0Zvy8WzGT
- 16:16:20 Retweeted @owillis 15:43:09 the thing i admire most about the gop and dislike about the democrats is that when they get power the gop just uses it and the dems keep it in a box like if they do use it, it will dissipate
- 16:18:17 Retweeted @kylegriffin1 11:35:50 From a White House source, the House Oversight Committee has obtained documents related to Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump’s security clearances that the Trump admin refused to provide, a senior Democratic aide tells Axios. https://t.co/PbXFKoRbr9

- 19:14:54 Retweeted @HoarseWisperer 01:27:14 Let’s this be a lesson to would-be criminals:If you’re thinking of accidentally voting illegally, don’t. You can get a long sentence for that.
Just commit a shitload of felonies in the Eastern District of Virginia and hope you get Judge Ellis.
- 21:16:24 Retweeted @IanSams 20:45:47 Crazy story that just happened in SC:A woman in a MAGA hat showed up to @KamalaHarris‘ event in Myrtle Beach. She came over to Kamala after the event and talked with her for a minute. Swear to God, she then took off her MAGA hat and told Kamala she isn’t with Trump anymore.
- 21:34:15 Retweeted @emptywheel 18:08:03 Raise your hand if you thought that the Alexandria jail would hold Maria Butina, Paul Manafort, and Chelsea Manning, all at the same time. https://t.co/jVKrRkRwXa
