New charges were filed Thursday against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his business partner, ratcheting up the legal pressure on them as they prepare for a trial later this year.

 

A new indictment has long been expected in special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s prosecution of Manafort and his right-hand man, Rick Gates, on fraud and money laundering charges. Manafort served as President Trump’s campaign chairman from June to August 2016. Gates also served as a top official on Trump’s campaign. The new indictment contains 32 counts, including tax charges.

Manafort is almost 70 years old. He could be looking at spending the rest of his life behind bars if he doesn't flip. But maybe he has wanted to flip but doesn't have anything juicy enough that would warrant a plea deal.

Sheriff Joe got one after all and he might be the only person in Trumpland who's more disgusting than Manafort. 

Oh man, there's lots of chemicals in that goo who are more disgusting than Manafort. KellyAnne Conway... Donald Junior.... Dinesh D'Souza.... Bannon.... David Clarke... It just goes on and on.

Have to start the list with Bannon if we're talking chemical goo. He looks like he was defrosted in a microwave. Probably one of Kellyanne's spy microwaves

Long article but worth reading.

 

Manafort probably expects a pardon. Sheriff Joe got one after all and he might be the only person in Trumpland who's more disgusting than Manafort. 

 

This reads like a Wolves of Wallstreet type movie, especially the stuff going back to the 80s with Manafort, Stone and Black.  If Manafort goes to prison I’d like to see Scorese do it.

Manafort got involved with some bad people in Eastern Europe and is more afraid of them than American prison. That's the only reason he hasn't flipped.

Mueller looks like an actor who is typecast to play a stern FBI agent for his entire career.

 

 

And it's awesome.

 

Yeah I mean it feels like he legit just walked off the set of Law & Order. 

 

I swear this plays behind him wherever he goes. It stops when he begins talking to someone, handling his business and then starts up again as soon as he is back on the move

Manafort isn't the only one who has the goods on Asshole. He may have been promised a pardon by Asshole. 

 

Funny thing about that. By accepting a pardon, they are admitting guilt, and they have to testify and not take the 5th.

 

That's fraught with danger for Asshole.

NYAG is gonna get him on state charges if Asshole pardons him. 

My patience is being tested, but they're gonna get wrecked. ?

Really long slog early in the day but vitally important in tying together so many threads. Can't recommend this enough, anyone who has been paying attention while recognize most of the players in this.
