Federal judge accuses Mueller's team of 'lying,' trying to target Trump

 Judge TS Ellis

A federal judge on Friday harshly rebuked Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team during a hearing for ex-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort – suggesting they lied about the scope of the investigation, are seeking “unfettered power” and are more interested in bringing down the president.
"You don't really care about Mr. Manafort,” U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III told Mueller’s team. 

“You really care about what information Mr. Manafort can give you to lead you to Mr. Trump and an impeachment, or whatever."

Further, Ellis demanded to see the unredacted “scope memo,” a document outlining the scope of the special counsel’s Russia probe that congressional Republicans have also sought.

    I am amazed, how bad the bias and prejudice must be for a Federal Judge to say this in open court.

    I have no idea who the person depicted is. Ellis is black. He was appointed by Ronald Reagan.
