As The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft reported Monday morning, former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort and business partner Rick Gates were ordered to surrender to federal authorities. Manafort has officially surrendered to the FBI, having entered the Bureau’s Washington, D.C. headquarters shortly after 8:00am EST.
The Justice Department released the list of 12 chargers facing Manafort and Gates, which include ‘conspiracy to launder money,’ and making ‘misleading FARA statements.’
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the 200+ transactions listed in the indictment on pages 7 through 14 – with the exception of 4 transactions from 2014.

All of the transactions listed are from the years 2006 to 2013.
This was years before President Donald Trump announced his intentions to run for President.
This is ALL a witch hunt.
Why the hell do we need a Special Counsel to investigate Paul Manafort’s crimes?? This investigation is out of control!
President of Judicial Watch Tom Fittton came out swinging after it was reported that Manafort was charged with crimes that have nothing to do with President Trump’s so called ‘Russian collusion’.

Fitton immediately tweeted, “We didn’t and don’t need a special counsel to handle the alleged Manafort crimes. Shut it down.”

Manafort gets popped for money laundering and conspiracy against the United States, yet Hillary Clinton is still walking around freely?
President Trump blasted this witch hunt and slammed Crooked Hillary Clinton Monday morning.
Sorry, but this is years ago, before Paul Manafort was part of the Trump campaign. But why aren’t Crooked Hillary & the Dems the focus?????

Mueller was involved in the Uranium One cover-up; he’s compromised and has numerous conflicts of interest.
Mueller has already proven that he is a dirty cop. He should now recuse himself, and then be disbarred, prosecuted on numerous crimes and punished. His scandalous investigation never had and certainly currently has no merit. “Lock Him Up!”
