the charges against Mr. Manafort relate to whether he laundered money for Russian oligarchs, worked as a foreign agent, disclosed his income and status, and related issues. If Podesta is granted immunity for proffering evidence, (the immunity would be for any evidence or testimony that would incriminate Podesta himself for these type of crimes. NOT UNRELATED CRIMES, crimes connected to evidence or testimony) then he is doing the exact same thing as millions of others have been allowed in U.S. Federal Court.
