#1 The fact they went after him for witness tampering is ironic. The FBI gave Hillary’s witnesses immunity and then invited them to her interviews with the FBI.

A feature, not a bug.

#3 People at Manafort's level all play fast n loose. Works until it doesn't.

#4 Unbridled power of the state on display. An argument for term limits of Federal judges. Also an example of the vindictiveness of the Swamp. Manafort's greatest sin was being Trump's campaign manager and helping defeat Hillary Clinton.

#5 Going to disagree, John. Manafort was probably in the wrong place at the wrong time, but he was also ripe for the picking. If I'm wrong, the wheels will grind until he's clear.
