If the shoe fits, ...
Manafort better have good security or he might end up trying to tread water with cement galoshes off Brighton Beach. Maybe Mueller should offer him protective custody?

This stuff was reported elsewhere months ago. Manafort is indeed a skank.

"NYT: Cobb overheard talking about colleagues, Russia probe at DC steakhouse" CNN

"The White House counsel's office is being very conservative with this stuff," Cobb reportedly told Dowd at BLT Steak in Washington last week. "Our view is we're not hiding anything."
He added White House counsel Don McGahn had "a couple of documents locked in a safe" that he suggested he wanted access to.
Cobb also expressed concern with a White House lawyer he didn't name in the conversation.
"I've got some reservations about one of them," Cobb reportedly said. "I think he's like a McGahn spy."

Hmmmm, documents in a safe? I'll bet dollars to donuts that Mueller's ears perked up at that news. (grin)

It is designed much more for effect than illumination.

As long as Mueller can tell the difference.

Will Manafort start cooperating and begin to implicate Trump's inner circle, or what do the Feds have on Manafort from direct surveillance that was leaked out yesterday?

Question is will Trump dare to pardon Manafort before everything plays out?

Manafort has made millions representing demagogues. Made him the perfect fit for Trump. Zero morals, zero integrity, worships money. Trump must have loved the guy.

The special counsel investigating Russian election meddling has requested extensive records and email correspondence from the White House, covering everything from the president’s private discussions about firing his FBI director to his White House’s handling of a warning that President Trump’s then-national security adviser was under investigation, according to two people briefed on the requests.
