Earlier today it was reported that Robert Mueller is seeking to give immunity to five potential witnesses in the Paul Manafort trial according to a new court filing Tuesday.  It’s now suspected that two of the witnesses are creepy and criminal Podesta brothers, the Democrats’ poster boys.

Mueller is filing the requests under seal; Manafort is facing charges of bank and tax fraud and his trial begins next Wednesday in the Eastern District of Virginia.

Via NBC reporter Tom Winter: NEW: The Special Counsel’s Office notifies the court that they will seek immunity for up to 5 people to testify under conditions of immunity in the upcoming trial against Paul Manafort in Virginia. They say these people have not been publicly named before in the case.

From the filing: “The motions indicate that the named individuals will not testify or provide other information on the basis of their privilege against self-incrimination, and that the government is requesting that the Court compel them to testify at the upcoming trial.”

Yup. Tucker just reported it:

Judge delays start of trial of ex-Trump campaign chief Paul Manafort until July 31, grants immunity to five people

Judge T.S. Ellis III also granted immunity to five potential witnesses for their testimony at that trial in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Va.

The potential witnesses were identified as Dennis Raico, Cindy Laporta, Conor O'Brien, Donna Duggan and James Brennan. All five people appear to work at various financial institutions that have been linked to Manafort either in court filings or published reports.

I'm all for holding anyone accountable who breaks the law, but this smacks of a politically motivated persecution (not a typo).  I wonder how many people in DC could withstand the scrutiny of 17 prosecutors who all work the same case and only that one case.  Along with the power of the IRS, FBI, etc.  Would be a lot of people wearing orange jumpsuits.
