Paul Manafort

[Amarok]

Most people understand nuance. Except for libtards. Libtards see everything through the lens of their favorite boogeymen, and everyone has to check every single box in the libtard column, and if they don't check one single libtard box, then it is as if they checked every box in the boogeyman column. Libtards see everyone as being either 100% with them or 100% against them. They are the only people on the planet who are even dumber than Trumptards, who can sometimes respect a bit of nuance.

Ellis was most certainly critical of some Mueller prosecutors. But Ellis also has a track record of being more lenient than guidelines suggest for sentencing, when he has latitude to be lenient. He has a track record of being opposed to mandatory sentencing.

I sympathize with Ellis' position, since I feel that mandatory sentencing is obviously legislative over-reach into the judicial branch of government.

That's  rich
