sho Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/11/27/1815497/-Manafort-plea-deal-may-have-started-as-a-set-up-for-Robert-Mueller-and-ended-as-a-trap-for-Trump Quote Rather than face a series of charges in federal court that repeatedly trotted out his association with Russia and the rather clumsy schemes to launder money through real estate transactions — both of which served as a tutorial on what to expect should Mueller actually delve into Trump’s business dealings — Manafort may have taken a proposal to the the [sic] Tweeter in Chief. Here’s how that might have gone: Manafort agrees to a plea deal, promising to tell all. However, what Manafort tells doesn’t just stop short of “all,” it includes deliberate lies and omissions. In addition to giving Mueller a sanitized version of events, Manafort reports back to Trump on what the investigation is asking him, providing invaluable prep as Trump determines his own actions. At the same time, Donald Trump is preparing to answer a set of written questions from Robert Mueller’s team. He delays and delays on providing these answers because … because he’s waiting for his inside man to reassure him that the special counsel has swallowed the “official” version of what happened hook, line, and sinker. Reassured by Manafort that he has sold Mueller’s team on a carefully edited version of the “truth,” Trump turns in his homework. And it’s only after Mueller has Trump’s answers in hand, that he marches Manafort back into court and reveals that he knew the campaign manager was lying all along. Now Mueller doesn’t just have Manafort on record lying, he has written proof that Manafort and Trump were conspiring again to deceive and misdirect the investigation. If Manafort and Trump were coordinating answers (like two high-school students cheating on a test and both giving the exact same wrong answers), Mueller now has circumstantial evidence of them conspiring to obstruct justice -- at a minimum. Also probably evidence of criminal conspiracy. And if Trump dangled a pardon to Manafort in exchange for not cooperating, he can try to pardon him but you can't pardon someone in an effort to cover your own crimes. Constitutional crisis time. 4 1 Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Well, so Manafort lied and Roger Stone lied. Both knew what Wikileaks had planned. Both were plugged into the Trump campaign. Manafort LED it. This smells a lot like collusion, swirled in rank dishonesty by a bunch of arrogant idiots thinking they could pull a fast one on Mueller. 3 Link to comment
ZRod Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Michael Cohen pleads guilty to lying to Congress Quote NEW YORK (AP) — Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former lawyer, made a surprise appearance before a federal judge in New York on Thursday to plead guilty to lying to Congress about work he did on an aborted project to build a Trump Tower in Russia. Flanked by his lawyers, Cohen admitted making false statements in 2017 to the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence about the project. Cohen told the judge he lied about the timing of the negotiations and other details to be consistent with Trump’s “political message.” Cohen and prosecutors referred to Trump as “individual one” throughout Thursday’s proceedings and said he lied “to be loyal to Individual One.” Among other lies, Cohen said he told Congress that all discussions of the Moscow Trump Tower project ended by January 2016, when they had actually continued until June of that year. One of the prosecutors working with Special Counsel Robert Mueller was present in the courtroom. 1 1 Link to comment
