An unnamed witness who testified in special counsel Robert Muellers probe of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential elections tells the New York Posts Richard Johnson that he fears Trump wont get a fair shake because there no white men serving on the grand jury.
The grand jury room looks like a Bernie Sanders rally, the source told Johnson. Maybe they found these jurors in central casting, or at a Black Lives Matter rally in Berkeley.
The source explained that 11 out of the 20 jurors were black, while adding that two of the jurors were wearing peace t-shirts.
The witness also claimed that there was only one white male in the room, and he was a prosecutor.

After thousands of cases where black people have been judged by juries filled with their white male peers, I wouldn't mind seeing the Trump-GOP cabal under the scrutiny of a 55% black grand jury.
Except this story is obviously bullshit -- meaning it will be repeated endlessly by Trump TV yelling heads and every teajadist in Congress.
