At least Manafort gets to take both his ankle bracelets off.

Mueller is sending one legal message to Manafort today:
This will be the first day of the rest of your life in jail if you don't cooperate with us.

To view Manafort’s repeated election Clinton cash tweets is just an amazing exercise in chutzpah and tempting fate

Manafort to be jailed after Mueller claims that he was tampering with witnesses.
Mueller sending a strong message that playtime is over – it's time to cooperate or pay the price.
Which seems impossible because nothing illegal happened, right?

If Hillary tweets "Lock Him Up" about Paul Manafort, I'll retire from Twitter knowing I could never write anything better.

To summarize:
-The chairman of a campaign whose unofficial slogan was "Lock her up" is going to jail
-The campaign adviser who personally led "Lock her up" chants and the deputy chairman are both awaiting sentencing.
