.@MalcolmNance calls the Paul Manafort 47 month sentencing a "breach of justice." #Hardball Watch: pic.twitter.com/dghawOSlG3

Manafort’s 47-month sentence in ED Va is outrageously lenient. Judge Ellis has inexcusably perverted justice and the guidelines. His pretrial comments were a dead giveaway. The DC sentence next week had better be consecutive.

REMINDER: The extraordinary bias of the judge in the Manafort trial https://t.co/t15fBjPG3n "He disparaged the prosecution's evidence, misstated its legal theories,"

Manafort’s statement to the sentencing judge wasn’t addressed to the court. It had an audience of one: Donald J. Trump. He’s relying on a pardon. @AriMelber @chrislhayes @maddow @Lawrence

Manafort was originally slated for 305 years until he fake-cooperated with Mueller. All of this is disgusting and disgustingly predictable. https://t.co/3919RmHVew

Manafort led a "blameless" life, says the Judge? Huh? He helped every dictator around the globe he could attach his arrogant dyed hair to….Good Lord.

Mueller had the choice to recommend Manafort’s DC sentence be served consecutively or concurrently and decided to wait and see what Ellis did first. Glad they still have that card to play because justice was not served tonight.

Change of plan. I’m now planning to commit my federal felonies in eastern Virginia, and *soon*, because Judge T.S. Ellis III is almost 79.

Democrats did not have a shining moment, but at least they figured out that tolerating anti-Semitism and excuse-mongering for anti-Semitism is reprehensible. Republicans just reminded us of who they are. https://t.co/vwX7u3C9Ku

Revisiting that time my lawyers asked President Trump under oath about an $18.3 million insurance payment he got for hurricane damage to Mar-a-Lago. He pocketed a chunk of that money and couldn’t remember how badly damaged his club actually was. https://t.co/oCcaAdRf3u

The RNC holding their Spring Retreat at Mar-a-Lago is a great way for Republican donors to circumvent campaign finance law and put money in the pocket of the President of the United States while they bend his ear on policy issues.

Better late than never but such insensitivity begs the question of whether Karen Bradley is fit for this role. Notable that Baroness Nuala O’Loan has called for her resignation #bloodySunday https://t.co/H1t6mbozbx
