Paul Manafort Wants Out Of Federal Prison To Avoid COVID-19 | Talking Points Memo

Can’t do the time; don’t do the crime. Seriously, though, put Manafort in line for release behind of the poor, predominantly African American prisoners incarcerated for non-violent crimes. When it gets to be his turn, let him out.

Do any of the Supermax units have Covid yet? Perhaps we could just do a transfer.

Yeah, like seven years from now. Manafort should be treated like any other Federal Inmate. He is at the mercy of the DoJ.

If he thinks he is at risk for COVID-19, he should complain to Barr and Trump to improve prison sanitation and inmate treatment. Good luck with that, Paulie.

Manafort has been under quarantine at FCI Loretto since March 30, Downing said, “thus making him eligible to be transferred immediately.”

Or Manafort has been under quarantine, thus making a transfer unnecessary. Sounds better to me.

Sure, why not. Can we add an extra year to his sentance for the indulgence? How about an extra year if he violates social distancing?

And wash his hands frequently. And moisturize 2-3 times a day.

Waaah. I betrayed my country and engaged in criminal activity on the side.
Why must I suffer the consequences?

It’s still important to keep the children of immigrants locked up indefinitely, but yeah, let this guy go.

And I want this Administration out because of, among other things, COVID-19. That isn’t happening either, Ostrich boy.

I bet Rod Blagojevich is relieved Trump commuted his sentence and let him go home.

Too bad Trump’s not doing the same for you, Paulie.

Poor little Paulie.

Maybe he shouldn’t have been an international criminal, either.

Fret not, St. Paul. If you die from the virus, evangelicals will assure us it was god’s inerrant will. See, the almighty works in mysterious ways, so your death would just be part of the divine plan. Don’t try to escape the will of the supreme being. Everything happens for a providential reason, so just relax and enjoy the ride.
