Not sure Manafort and Gates will flip when they know they'll be pardoned.

lots of "settling" needs to happen with mutual fund assets. Value of a mutual fund "unit" or "share" is basically the composite of underlying securities, which, well, it's damn complicated, Buck, dammit, AND WHY ARE YOU ASKING THESE QUESTIONS
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)

they have actual brains. And when you're acting on Putin's behalf because you know he will actually kill you, vs doing anything for drumpf who can't find his dick with both hands & a microscope, who do you fear more

Manafort and Gates received monies to lobby regarding Ukraine sanctions, validity of elections, etc
probably explains the RNC platform changes
Gates was directing false info to disseminate as recently as Feb 2017

so you mean basically the same environmental conditions prevailing for Watergate, which went well for the POTUS at the time as I recall

Perry Bacon Jr. wrote:Micah, the way the news has come out has been a bit complicated today, but maybe it’s best to look at it as a whole. Two advisers to President Trump’s 2016 campaign were charged with crimes today. News that a third had been charged earlier this month also broke. That third adviser, Papadopoulos — who Trump himself listed as one of his foreign policy advisers — pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents about his dealings with Russian figures. As part of his guilty plea, that adviser is now cooperating with the special counsel’s investigation, presumably giving more detailed information about other potentially legally dubious activities on the campaign.
The Papadapoulus news is huge. It changes this from a story about taxes and potentially illegal lobbying activity by Gates and Manafort and moves us right to how the Trump campaign dealt with Russian officials. Manafort is a big name everyone has heard of and ran Trump’s campaign for a time. Papadapoulus, while less famous, pleaded guilty to a crime involving Russia. This is bad on two fronts for Trump.
From the 538 live reaction/blog. Thought this was a good synopsis on the importance of the 2nd unsealed indictment.
Quick Google shows that GoGo is wrong with regards to the Kiwi and the Banana.
