    I already laid out how the Trump Tower meeting was a scam and not collusion. Willingness to take an unsolicited meeting to hear about potential dirt on your opponent is not collusion in any way, shape, or form.

    As for Papadopoulos, you do know who put the idea in his head about the Clinton email hack? FBI mole Stefan Halper. Apparently, it was very important to him to make sure Papadopoulos was well aware of that so he reminded him multiple times. Then, Papadopoulos gets liquored up by Clinton benefactor Alexander Downer who coaxes him into bragging about the Clinton emails. Who then reports it to the FBI as a basis for beginning surveillance on the Trump campaign. This is called the manufacturing of an investigation and is corruption of the highest order.

    Rudy really likes being the center of attention.

    Meeting with members of a foreign government to get information to help your political campaign is absolutely collusion.

    What a lovely fantasy story you've written about George P.

    Now it is acceptable to try and refute evidence which you are doing. But to deny evidence exists is another altogether.

    You would be lucky to know 1% of what Mueller knows. To be so ignorant and yet so confident in your un-informed opinion is telling.

    No probable cause? Seriously? Are you really as partisan as this makes you appear?

    The good thing if it was learned that campaign finance laws were violated in the investigation into collusion then that can be brought up!

    Interesting, given Rudy’s strategy so far, we can deduce that there’s now been a murder too? Anyone seen Melania recently?

    in a court filing, late Monday afternoon, the Special Council requested that
    • the bail for Manafort should be revoked and
    • Manafort should be jailed immediately
    FBI Special Agent Brock Domin, in a declaration filed with Mueller’s motion, said Manafort had attempted to call, text and send encrypted messages in February to two people from “The Hapsburg Group,” a UK firm he worked with to promote the interests of Ukraine.

    The FBI has documents and statements from the two people, as well as telephone records and documents recovered through a search of Manafort’s iCloud account showing that Trump’s former campaign manager attempted communication while he was out on bail, according to Domin.

    It would be difficult for Manafort to be any more wrong and more of an awful human being.

    Manafort needs to cooperate in every way he can.

    He very obviously believes he is getting a pardon. No other way to interpret his behavior and there is little reason to think he won’t get one. He just needs to be sentenced. Trump knows an obstruction case is coming regardless so F it.
