So Manafort jury apparently can't agree on one of the 18 counts.
I'm having a hard time reading the tea leaves on that one:
I'd think if they agreed on convicting him of 17 of the 18, but one or more jurors wanted to acquit on the 18th, the rest of the jurors would compromise as he's still getting convicted on 17 counts.
It seems to make more sense that they're agreeing to acquit on 17, but some are holding out on a conviction for at least one.
On the other hand, the experts who claim to have carefully studied the evidence seem to agree that Manafort is as guilty as they come and clearly so (and I have no good reason to doubt that), so that would point toward a conviction for 17 if not 18 . . .

That would be a good way to get a mistrial. Also impermissible is drawing straws and flipping coins. Jurors are instructed on how to deliberate and generally juries take that responsibility seriously.

I don't think so, I doubt The Chief knows who Abraham Lincoln was.

Go s2s Go
damn it page break;
s2s is swept away
swerpted as it were, not swept,
more jerked away; swerpt not swept
I also benefit whole hog
from this corrupt administration,
and when the gambit changes,
during his coming second administration,
I will be doing even better, looks like.
Riding just below the crest of the wave,
the sweet spot outside of the barrel.
do not like it leave the site,
add some positive content
try not to incite,
the wealth you have ?
doesn't look good on you.
And from where I sit I think I know
you're full of . . .
Then, here,
yes I added that I have zero tolerance
and would not hesitate, if harassed or accosted
to strike out with un-bridled violence .
