Prosecutor Andrew Weismann tells CNN there is a cooperation agreement with Paul Manafort as part of his plea deal with special counsel Robert Mueller.
The Washington Post reports Manafort’s plea deal includes 17-page cooperation agreement.
Marcy Wheeler : “At this point, the deal is pardon proof. That was part of keeping the detail secret: to prevent a last minute pardon from Trump undercutting it.”
BOMBS AWAY !
Maybe he read about how trump talked about him behind his back (in Woodward's book) and he wants to get a shred of his manhood back.
A moment of silence please, as our right wing faith leaders pray for our president* in this time of trial and tribulation.
Notice Pence , Cohen , and Omarosa praying (for Trump?) in the back row.
NOTE : Trump appears to have a pancake, with golden beams shooting out of it, on top of his head.
Apparently he's sucking the energy from anyone touching him.
That's almost as funny as the one with the orb
"Lighting" only has 110V and maybe 2 amps at most. Won't kill you.
NOAA states that the USA averages 51 lightning strike fatalities per year.
That's it ?
My advise to those folks...… Stay inside !
But it seems.....my original post flew right by the window !
I know ….... Right ?
Comment 1.2.5 of course.
OkayDokay !
I up voted you for supplying such great comic fun this morning.
I believe you know that Tessy meant to post lightening.
It's great to see that SOMEONE ….. "got it".
Aw, don't ruin it, I was starting to get curious as to how far she would carry this.
This reminds me of NV when on a GW article one poster was claiming how he was conserving energy and went on about turning off his 220V apartment heat and purchased and 110V space heater to heat the entire apartment and avoided using his oven and got a countertop oven. It was hilarious he thought the lower the voltage the better for the environment, when in actuality the higher the voltage the better.
Must admit, I had to read the thread to see what you were talking about, sometimes I'm a little slow. Old age, yeah, that's it, old age.
Pretty cool that Manafort's $46 million civil forfeiture essentially pays for Mueller's entire investigation.
kind of lets all the air out of the hurry up and stop wasting taxpayer money meme
I don't know what he has to say, but whatever it is, it's going to interesting to say the least.
Manafort is yet another of trumps staff that has deep ties to Russia.....well, to be fair, everyone trump hired has deep ties to Russia. But..."no collusion!!!!", keep telling yourselves that... LOL
Manafort knows where the 'bodies are buried'.... Not good.
One after another, trumps employees get arrested, cut a deal and roll over on trump. But trump keeps saying that none of them, ANY of them have anything to do with him. So trump is sticking with the, "yes, the majority of my employees are criminals and many have plead guilty....but I am clean as a whistle, never done anything wrong!!!! It's everyone else!!! Not ME!!!!!!!"
Sure donny, keep that lie going. Trump told us he only hires the best people...then why are so many of them guilty as sin? I mean, did trump mean to say, "I only hire scumbag criminals, but I am not a criminal"?
Isn't that what John Gotti said too?
Pretty much, yes.
Mueller's investigation has cost 8.5 million dollars so far. Manafort just gave up 46 MILLION dollars to the US government. Mueller is making money for the US! Or we can use the money to fund the investigation through 2019.
Now that's the way to run a government!
The best thing about President Trump, is his uncanny ability to always hire the best people. That's why he's such a great president!
Trump is well noted for his insistence on ''extreme vetting''....We can see that once again he is full of it...LOL
While manafort was only charged with two crimes, he admitted that everything in the 17 page cooperation agreement is 100% true.
Not to worry, trump will just say it's all fake news and his base will buy it. Kinda like all that Stormy Daniels fake news stuff... LOL
lemmings
This is the best part of the whole story,
Trump can't save Manafort or, himself in this with a pardon, kind of puts the kabash on his plans.
Trump is going to need bigger and bigger distractions to divert attention from his culpability. Nuking Switzerland would probably distract from virtually anything. Don't tell Trump I said that!
Ha, if he nukes Switzerland you can be sure that the Mouse will roar. Lichtenstein will come to Switzerland aide and invade the U.S.....General Fuck up will suddenly have another bone spur.
Wait for the irate 3am tweet storm Saturday when Trump takes a crap.
I think Trump will want to see blood. It's pretty obvious that Trump has wanted to pardon Manafort for a while. So who convinced him to delay? Someone has to fall on their sword or who the hell knows where Trump will get his pound of flesh.
Between this and Trump coming to the realization that he didn't have attorney client privilege with Cobb, he is hemmed in with testimony about what he did before and after he took office.
that noose is getting tighter. too fucking bad. bring on the mid-terms.
I want marshmallows and, popcorn too.
Paul Manafort's daughter files for name change - nypost.com
12 days ago · Paul Manafort’s daughter is ditching the family name. Jessica Manafort, 36, filed paperwork in Manhattan Supreme Court late Friday to change her now-infamous surname to Bond, Jess Bond. “I would like my new name to be Jessica Anne Bond, in place of my present name,” she said in the legal filing.
Is she hot?
beauty is in the eye of the beholder
So the answer is no. Got it.
I think she's cute. Everyone can't be Jessica Alba
[deleted]
I didnt go after anybody. I think she's proud she is ditching the Manafort name.
I was referring to the liberal media who went to the trouble of publishing her new name. That is not anyone's business.
Was it necessary to add it?
Sorry Vic, the NY Post is not liberal media. It is a conservative/right wing editorial position.
Why add it?
Pretty sure it wasn't liberals that were slamming Obama's kids for 8+ years.
You're kidding right.
Miss Thing was living in a home daddy bought with his ill gotten gains [he just forfeited it to the Feds]. They have emails from her whining about needing more money from daddy while he was working for 'free' for the campaign. I guess he wasn't quite keeping her in the fashion to which she had become accustom.
Ya, poor 36 year old 'kid'.
What universe were you living in?
So I was right?
Tomorrow mornings trump tweet...
"Manafort? I hardly knew the guy, only met him once or twice, very low level covfefe boy.."
There is one thing here that can't be overlooked..... Manafort had to give Mueller something that Mueller wanted to get this deal. It will be interesting to see what that is.
I totally agree. With one exception.. I don't think Mueller is looking for anything but criminal activity. The left and the right can scream bias all day long, but all it really is, is rhetoric. When Mueller was first appointed, both sides vouched for his credibility.
It can't be overlooked because it's the elephant in the room. Of COURSE Manafort gave Mueller 'something', either corroborative or NEW worth about 5-10 of the years he has left in his disgustingly corrupt life.
Ya, depending on what that info was, he may be a marked man by Russian agents. Or was it about the multitude of others who did what he did? Whatever it is will be interesting.
yes, stupid is as stupid as one might think. yer first clue.
It seems both sides have played their best cards. Mueller has Manafort's cooperation and Trump has declassified all the protected DOJ documents. Now we get to the bottom of ALL of this.
