    There’s a podcast I recently discovered called Behing the Bastards. They profiled Manafort and as bad as I though he was, he’s way way worse. Very entertaining listen. 3 episodes on Manafort each about an hour. Very well researched.

    Enjoy

    That's why he's going to spend the rest of his life picking cockroaches out of his prison food.

    I eagerly await Maris' plea that Manafort is a god fearing bible thumper that's being taken down by the shadow government/deep state.

    Wow! Read the whole first page. They really get to the heart of the matter.

    "Paul Manafort invented some of the very worst parts of our modern world. In a real way, he is one of the architects of our current national nightmare. In Episode 15, Robert is joined by comedian, Dave Ross (Suicide Buddies Podcast) to discuss Paul Manafort aka The Man Who Donkey-Punched Democracy. Paul Manafort’s work with the Trump Campaign is actually just about the LEAST objectionable thing this man has done in his entire life. Manafort is a MAJOR bad guy!<strong><br></strong><br><br><br>"

    This thread should be titled, "People pretending they listened to something for 3 hours."

    Tell us what the thing says.

    They methodically go through his history, the history of Black Manafort and Stone lobbying agency and that they specifically targeted working for many dictators, warloards and in some cases specifically encouraged them to kill hundreds of people. They encouraged civil wars and not just encouraged but made efforts to help them happen resulting in deaths of thousands. One of his daughters had her phone text messages hacked releasing over 200,0oo texts including ones where she talks about how her father is responsible for the deaths of hundreds and many concerning how he forced his wife to get drunk to where she couldn’t stand and then get gang bamged by many men.

    All that is just scratching the surface.

    "Dark state" events. After working so long on the side of U.S. foreign policy, he must have later crossed a couple of important people in the State Dept., since they're not protecting him in this case.

    He not only crossed them, but likely stole tens of millions of dollars twice, once from Ferdinand Marcos (10m) a Putin backed Oleg Deripaska. I’m sure he’s crossed many others too.
