John Solomon just uncovered evidence that might see Manafort's lawyers submitting a writ of habeas corpus. Can anyone say "fruit of the poisonous tree."

From the article:


FBI, warned early and often that Manafort file might be fake, used it anyway
BY JOHN SOLOMON, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR — 06/19/19 10:30 AM EDT


"The second document, known as the “black cash ledger,” remarkably has escaped the same scrutiny, even though its emergence in Ukraine in the summer of 2016 forced Paul Manafort to resign as Trump's campaign chairman and eventually face U.S. indictment.

In search warrant affidavits, the FBI portrayed the ledger as one reason it resurrected a criminal case against Manafort that was dropped in 2014 and needed search warrants in 2017 for bank records to prove he worked for the Russian-backed Party of Regions in Ukraine.

There’s just one problem: The FBI’s public reliance on the ledger came months after the feds were warned repeatedly that the document couldn’t be trusted and likely was a fake, according to documents and more than a dozen interviews with knowledgeable sources.

For example, Ukraine’s top anticorruption prosecutor, Nazar Kholodnytsky, told me he warned the U.S. State Department’s law enforcement liaison and multiple FBI agents in late summer 2016 that Ukrainian authorities who recovered the ledger believed it likely was a fraud.

It was not to be considered a document of Manafort. It was not authenticated. And at that time it should not be used in any way to bring accusations against anybody,” Kholodnytsky said, recalling what he told FBI agents."

Solomon speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C.
John F. Solomon is an American media executive and political commentator. He is currently executive vice president of digital video and an opinion contributor for The Hill.[1] He was formerly employed as an executive and editor-in-chief at The Washington Times.[2] He is known for biased reporting in favor of conservatives, and of repeatedly manufacturing faux scandals.[3][4][5]

Paul McCleary, writing for the Columbia Journalism Review in 2007, [3] wrote that Solomon had earned a reputation for hyping stories without solid foundation.[3] In 2012, Mariah Blake, writing for the Columbia Journalism Review, wrote that Solomon "has a history of bending the truth to his storyline," and that he "was notorious for massaging facts to conjure phantom scandals."[4] In 2007, Deborah Howell, then-ombudsman at The Washington Post criticized a story that Solomon wrote for The Post which had suggested impropriety by Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards in a real estate purchase; Solomon's reporting omitted context which would have made clear that there was no impropriety.[20] Progressive news outlets ThinkProgress, Media Matters for America and Crooked Media have argued that Solomon's reporting has a conservative bias and that there are multiple instances of inaccuracies.[21][22][23] Reporters who worked under Solomon as an editor have said that he encouraged them to bend the truth to fit a pre-existing narrative.[4]

In January 2018, Solomon published a report for The Hill suggesting that Peter Strzok and Lisa Page had foreknowledge of a Wall Street Journal article and that they themselves had leaked to the Wall Street Journal.[24] According to the Huffington Post, Solomon's reporting omitted that the Wall Street Journal article Strzok and Page were discussing was critical of Hillary Clinton and the FBI, Strzok and Page expressed dismay at the fallout from the article, and Strzok and Page criticized unauthorized leaks from the FBI. According to the Huffington Post, "Solomon told HuffPost he was not authorized to speak and does not comment on his reporting. He may simply have been unaware of these three facts when he published his story. But they provide crucial context to an incomplete narrative that has been bouncing around the right-wing echo chamber all week."[24]

That same month, Erik Wemple of The Washington Post said that newsroom staffers at The Hill had complained about Solomon's reporting for the publication.[5] The staffers reportedly criticized Solomon's reporting as having a conservative bias and missing important context, and that this undermined The Hill's reputation.[5] They also expressed concerns over Solomon's close relationship with Sean Hannity, whose TV show he appeared on more than a dozen times over a span of three months.[5]

So you've got nothing of intelligence to say about your idiot post... Typical for you, vette.:rolleyes:
 
I put holes in your thread. YOU'RE the dumbass.


Why weren't you concerned about the other part I posted?



Partisan dick sucker.. :rolleyes:

what holes, NIGGER?

FBI, warned early and often that Manafort file might be fake, used it anyway....is that now NOT true?

Do you know what an opinion is? That the person that wrote that opinion piece has a history of bullshit? Does that not concern you and cast a poor light on his opinion?


Are you a partisan hack as well?:rolleyes:

I listed numerous instances and claims from those that have worked for him that he's often played around with the truth.

"Liberal law professor Alan Dershowitz said FBI affidavits almost never cite news articles as evidence. “They are supposed to cite the primary evidence and not secondary evidence,” he said.

“It sounds to me like a fraud on the court, possibly a willful and deliberate fraud that should have consequences for both the court and the attorneys’ bar,”

Lol... Alan Dershowitz.


More holes there.. cept for the koolaid drinkers.
 
Do you mean that the lying, witness-tampering, foreign-loyal money launderer was framed?
 
Manafort.... Isn't that the guy in jail because a jury of his peers determined he is a criminal?

I understand that Harvard law Professor and constitutional scholar Alan Dershowitz can't possibly compete against Rachel Maddow, but, it's all we have. If I were a democrat I would heed what Solomon has to say, much more credible than Steele.

It's actually hilarious to hear them label Dershowitz 'alt right.'

Dershowitz is a commie, comrad

Do you mean like the Enron "criminals" put in jail by a jury of their peers when prosecuted by Andrew Weissman who was reversed and excoriated by unanimous decision for prosecutorial misconduct?

That sort of thing?
