ALEXANDRIA, Va. — President Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort went on trial Tuesday in federal court in Alexandria, where prosecutors charged that his personal fortune was propped up by years of lies to tax authorities and banks. The first trial to arise out of the investigation run by Special Counsel Robert Mueller got off to a fast start Tuesday, as a six-man, six-woman jury was picked – and opening statements delivered – in less than a day. The stakes are extremely high.
