It's going to be fun watching Carlson and Hannity rant and rave tonight on the grant of immunity.

The indictment against Manafort in this case is for money laundering and bank fraud. The only testimony at his trial will be related to those potential crimes.

Podesta will be granted immunity only for the events he testifies about in this trial. He is granted immunity so he won't take the 5th during his testimony.

This is not some earth shattering event.

link?

that's not typically how it works

plus, how could he even do this without essentially a full blown immunity deal?

I agree. Much like the Awan deal.
