Donald dipshit can't pardon this piece of shit either can he since they are state charges and Cuomo probably wouldn't pardon him
He's 70 and has to serve at least 85% of the time so he'll probably die in prison, even if it is a hilton
North of $28 million, apparently.
This is significant, as Manafort says he's worth $28 million. Granted, Mueller seems to have proven he lied about that, too, but he'd still be really low on funds.
Break it down!
Please, Mueller...don't hurt him.Mueller's office is also recommending a fine range of $50,000 to $24.4 million, a term of supervised release of up to five years, restitution in the amount of $24.8 million and forfeiture in the amount of $4.4 million.
From what we know so far Guiccifer 2.0 is supposed to be GRU (as your link says), not wikileaks (who don't need fictitious persona).
Wikilieaks is only related in that GRU also sent materials to them.
I haven't seen any lies about Guiccifer 2.0 communications with Stone in Stone's indictments.

Read the linked document. Wikileaks is "organisation 1." The stone communications the SC has came from search warrants executed on GRU operatives. Both of those things are easily discernible if you actually read it.

Yeah, you should read that as 29.2m-53.6m. They're basically taking all of his money that they can find. Fines, forfeiture, and restitution are separate things.
You can go bankrupt. I believe it gets rid of fines, it does not get rid of restitution. If he goes bankrupt he's still broke, and he'll still owe 24m.
I mean, he's in jail. He's probably going to die in jail. The virginia sentence is only the first of two. He still has DC charges he's getting sentenced for, and, since the plea deal is no longer in place, he could face consecutive sentences.
This is, of course, assuming they don't try him with additional charges once the final report comes out and they don't have to undercharge things to keep evidence from people.
When there's multiple nooses around your neck, it's hard to keep track of which one is tightening first.
The House Oversight Committee is suggesting that one of Trump's lawyers --
"Cohen?"
No.
"Giulliani?"
No.
"That guy who looks like Wilford Brimley on the set of Tombstone?"
Dammit. Sheri Dillon. Apparently, she testified before the OGE with multiple conflicting stories about if/how Trump owed Cohen money. And from the looks of things, some/all of those conflicting stories also conflict with what Cohen is now saying in his plea deal. Dillon even apparently conferred with "the filer" (Trump) before saying no money was owed. Oops.
We all know what happens when your lawyer lies under oath (or its Congressional equiv). And, if you don't, I'm sure @cubby will give an answer that rhymes with "she's mucked".
The most likely thing is that she was lied to, and she thought she was telling the truth at the time, so she's probably not in any real jeopardy. The fact that their story changed in light of new data isn't a mark against the lawyers. They still have to provide the best advocacy they can in the face of new data, and this is the horseshit story they came up with once either trump came clean or they were provided proof that contradicted their claims.
So again, I'm going to assume that what we already know remains true: trump is a pathological liar who will lie to anyone about anything, including to his lawyers about money he owes.
