Breaking- Its Manafort -Indicted

[OldLady]

So, the the charges he laundered money went through 2016. And there is no mention of the Trump campaign anywhere

A nothing burger for sure, medium well

-Geaux

The indictment against Manafort and Gates contains 12 counts: conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, unregistered agent of a foreign principal, false and misleading US Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) statements, false statements, and seven counts of failure to file reports of foreign bank and financial accounts.

What does "conspiracy against the United States" mean? The rest of it sounds pretty boring.

 

[DrLove]

Manafort was working with the Trump campaign for three months.

Prior to that, Manafort for already under a secret FISA warrant. The FBI never told that to the Trump team. Trump had to find that out and when he did, Manafort was canned.

Manafort should and will put the screws to Mueller by singing the song of Podesta.

FIVE months not three - did Gateway Pundit or Daily Caller tell you it was only three?

LoL - cut it with the spin and sit down before you fall down.

Thanks in advance

 

[JoeB131]

No need for a meltdown. Manafort is going to be charged and probably go to jail. If he broke the law he should.

The fact remains Manafort is nothing but Mueller's 'Scooter Libby', a weak justification for the witch hunt, and an admission there is nothing to the liberal 'Trump Collusion' lie.

Um, if Scooter Libby was no big deal... why did Bush commute his sentence before he went to the big house and broke bad on him?

HEre's the thing about underlings... they have a bad habit of singing.

 

[The Derp]

Because what you libs don't seem to understand is just because underlings broke the law, doesn't mean the boss did.

If he directed them to, he did. With Papa reaching a plea, things don't look too good for Trump.

 

[Dim Bulb]

The fraud in chief’s former campaign manager for 3 months just surrendered to the FBI. They showed a picture of him being led away in a car with him covering his face.
Lol

This is just the beginning. Nowhere near the end. The trump whores excuses will change as the indictments get closer to Trump.

Frankly what we as Americans should notice is that this PROVES Russians were trying to buy highly placed people. Manafort. Clinton. Posesta. Maybe Trump Jr.

Russians knew they couldn’t buy Hillary. Putin hated Hillary because she was tough on him for her entire stay as SOS.

Meanwhile Trump just hit a new low in approval in a new Fox poll. Lol

The Russians believe anyone can be bought. Bills speaking fees Foundation donations etc.

 

[Baz Ares]

Money laundering?

I understand Mueller has the Great Orange Douche Tax returns.
Another MAGA FIRST!
The fastest ever criminal indictments filed!
On members in any Presidental Election.
Where two major people are charged and
One Trump Campaign Foreign Policy Adviser Pleads Guilty.


btw. Plus we know Flynn is guilty!

So I say we have four know best people hired.

Trump: I'll choose the best people for my administration

Alas....

Post the names you feel can ID how this happens!
This starts with an Orange Douche Brain Tumor?

Seems four people got IT!


BREAKING : Exclusive: First charges filed in Mueller investigation

 

[JoeB131]

Manafort was working with the Trump campaign for three months.

Prior to that, Manafort for already under a secret FISA warrant. The FBI never told that to the Trump team. Trump had to find that out and when he did, Manafort was canned.

Manafort should and will put the screws to Mueller by singing the song of Podesta.

Except Mueller doesn't care about Podesta.

He wants to get the guy who fired Comey.

That would be Trump.

 

[Dim Bulb]

So? Do you think this was a special prosecutor for Manafort because its not

If there were ties to Russia, Manafort and Trump, it would of been in the charges

So we can dismiss that part of the witch hunt

-Geaux

It's not over yet.

Unfortunately you're right. The Demorats will continue to look foolish where there is 'no there, there' relative to Russian collusion. But now they'll shift focus to Flynn lol

-Geaux

Yup Theres an indictment ready for Flynn too.
You trump whores really don’t understand how bad these indictments makes Trump look do you..
9 months in and charges against the United States of America already.

No, what you dumb liberals don't understand is that this process going this far absolutely proves that Trump knows he did nothing wrong and doesn't fear an investigation nor does he fear anyone turning on him.

When the news of Mueller's involvement in the investigation into Uranium One was made public, Trump absolutely could have fired him with no fear of a Republican House holding impeachment hearings, it wouldn't have happened. Not under any circumstances.

Further if he thought Manafort had something on him that he could use to leverage leniency , he could simply pardon Manafort and be done with it.

Do you liberals even understand the concept of logic?

If that is all true and I hope it is then trump should welcome the investigation because it is a third party that backs up his claim. Why fight it?

 

[DrLove]

AG Yates told the Trump campaign the same thing about Flynn and they waited almost a month to can him.

Another good reminder .. they only act on things when they get busted by the folks at WaPo or "The Failing NY Times".

 

[PoliticalChic]

Oh, my God, she's going to blow!!!!

YOu can tell when they are panicking is when they dredge up their 25 years of Hillary Conspiracy THeories that they were never able to prove.

Tell you what, let's spend as much money investigating trumps cronies as we spent trying to prove Mr. Clinton lied about a blow job. Bet we come up with more than a lie about a blow job.

Yep she is having a melt down.

She will continue to flood this thread with off-topic spew unless the mods do anything about it.

I've asked you to provide any of the indictments that connect to Trump.

You haven't been able to.


When can I expect to see that change in your avi?

Dumbass, the whole case is about Russian collusion. His charges have to do with Russia... this is just the first days of indictments. More will be coming.

So when are you going to have an original thought in your head that doesn't include 5,000 cut and pasted words?

"Dumbass, the whole case is about Russian collusion. "

Did you notice how easily I destroyed your argument, and your hopes, without ever having to use terms like that?

It's all connected to the collusion...

What do you think the charge of "Conspiracy Against the United States" is about?

Go ahead and continue with your meltdown... I'm not going to continue arguing with an obviously unstable individual that can't read simple documents.

"It's all connected to the collusion..."

You're so dense that light bends around you.

The only collusion, payments, events involving Russia/Moscow/Putin is with Democrats.



There is zero evidence that of any collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians....as this Mueller indictment shows.


There are scads of evidence of collusion between the media and the DNC, and there is this:
The only folks with a close relationship with the Russians are Democrats.
The names Clinton and Podesta come to mind.

"Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal

...the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Mr. Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.

....major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.

Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons,...."

"Claire McCaskill Used Undisclosed Foundation to Pay for Dinner at Russian Ambassador’s House

Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill (Mo.) used a personal foundation to pay for a dinner she attended at Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak's Washington, D.C., residence. The senator had failed to disclose her role in the foundation until earlier this month.


McCaskill came under fire this March after she told the Washington Post she never had a "call or meeting" with Kislyak even though she had publicly announced both a call and meeting with him. This week, CNN reportedthat McCaskill also attended a black-tie reception at Kislyak's D.C. residence in November 2015.


McCaskill's attendance at the dinner was accompanied by an $873 payment to the American-Russian Cultural Cooperation Foundation, where Kislyak serves on its board of directors as honorary chairman."

Podesta Group retroactively files more DOJ disclosures for pro-Putin work

...the powerful Washington lobbying firm run by Clinton ally Tony Podesta filed a document admitting its work for the pro-Russia European Centre for a Modern Ukraine may have principally benefited a foreign government. New disclosures revealed dozens of previously unreported interactions the firm made with influential government offices, including Hillary Clinton's State Department and the office of former Vice President Joe Biden, while lobbying on behalf of the center. Embattled ex-Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort failed to disclose his extensive lobbying efforts on behalf of the center at the time as well.

How do you say 'whoops' in Russian? Podesta Group retroactively files more DOJ disclosures for pro-Putin work

 

[easyt65]

Mueller is ANYTHING but a "media whore".

Yeah - he could have issued these indictments this past weekend, had the two processed, and they could have been released on Friday...especially since none of it had to do with non-existent Russian Collusion'.

Instead THE INFORMATION WAS LEAKED FROM MUELLER'S TEAM to CNN who, of course, broadcast it to the world, building up speculation and attention.

Again, this all just comes across as a desperate Special Counsel attempting to justify this witch hunt with a big media splash.

Unfortunately for Mueller, it is also, again, an obvious admission by Mueller that they have NOTHING to support the Trump Collusion' LIE!

 

[Londan Werewolf]

Because what you libs don't seem to understand is just because underlings broke the law, doesn't mean the boss did.

If he directed them to, he did. With Papa reaching a plea, things don't look too good for Trump.

Things look neither good nor bad for Trump here , unless you want them to look so. Why you morons can't just admit that is anyone's guess.

 

[Cellblock2429]

For the third time.......
If anyone had an ounce of objectivity, you would be disturbed by this.
Why?
Because this was predicted. (Charges would be filed for some crime that is not related to the investigation.)

Every American should be disturbed by an investigation whose investigators sole purpose is to find SOMETHING to charge targeted individuals with. How many times does this have to happen in Washington before people realize this is very unAmerican?

Manafort received 75 million in shady funds and laundered 18 million through property purchases for foreign govts.

Who do you know that sells properties? Wasnt Trump Jr the one who said they get a ton of money through Russia?

Ok, I jumped ahead but what in the world was the reason Trump had to pick Manafort to run his campaign? Selling and buying properties? Laundering money?

/—-/ How much did Manafort pay you to switch your vote to Trump?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

This is no surprise, Manafort was being investigated long before he joined the Trump campaign.

 

[Londan Werewolf]

If there were ties to Russia, Manafort and Trump, it would of been in the charges

What the hell? Trump hasn't been fighting the investigation. Sure he's been calling it a witch hunt (which it has been) but his people are cooperating and he's not pressuring anyone to drop it.

Say 'Duhhhhhhh...."

 

[BluesLegend]

Yeah NOW. Mueller will get closer to T. Expect obstruction of justice charges against him.

Good luck with that. podesta and co. though, they should be looking over their shoulders now. They have a big fat bullseye painted on their backs.

If I were Mueller and wanted to go fishing I'd go fishing in a pond where there's $150 million in foreign speaking fees and a $2 billion dollar slush fund so called foundation stuffed full of foreign cash.

Mueller didn’t go fishing idiot. His investigation was thorough and complete and one Crime leads to another.

By all means post the evidence Trump colluded with Russia to interfere with our election...got nothing? Yeah neither does Mueller.

Moron thinks he knows the cards Mueller has in his pocket.
Funny.

You got nothing on Trump, Mueller's got nothing, congress has nothing, the media has nothing. Tissue?

 

[Billy_Kinetta]

OK, we know about Manafort.

Here is the scum on Gates, who is heavily tied to the WH and money.

Gates is a colleague of Manafort's who joined the Trump team in spring 2016, according to Politico. In an old news release, Gates' bio braggedthat he had "over 15 years of international political, finance and business development experience working for multinational firms" and had "worked on several U.S. presidential campaigns" as well as "many international political campaigns in Europe and Africa." As part of the Trump campaign, he traveled with the real estate tycoon and helped manage day-to-day operations.

He then jumped from job to job in Trump's orbit.

When Trump fired Manafort last August, Gates shifted to become the campaign's liasion with the Republican National Committee. After Trump's victory, Gates helped the president-elect get set up for inauguration. This past January, Gates headed to America First Policies, a nonprofit started by Trump advisers to support the White House's agenda. He stepped down from that job in March after the Associated Press reported Manafort had collaborated with Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska to improve Russian President Vladimir Putin's status in the U.S. and Europe—even though Gates said he wasn't aware of what Manafort was doing for Deripaska.

Fast forward to this summer, when The Daily Beast reported Gates was frequently stopping by the White House as part of a new gig working for Trump fundraiser Tom Barrack. Meet Rick Gates, the Manafort pal and Trump adviser facing charges in Mueller indictment
