New indictment filed against Manafort names ally with Russian intel ties

Quote:
(CNN)Prosecutors have filed a new indictment against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort that also names as a defendant Konstantin Kilimnik, a close business colleague of Manafort's who prosecutors have said has close ties to Russian intelligence. The indictment includes two new charges against both Manafort and Kilimnik: a count of obstruction of justice and a count of conspiracy to obstruct justice, meaning the two allegedly worked together to tamper with witnesses. Kilimnik, 48, of Moscow, is the 20th person to face charges in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. So far, 20 people and three companies have been charged

Here is Trump's response:

"Wow, what a tough sentence for Paul Manafort, who has represented Ronald Reagan, Bob Dole and many other top political people and campaigns. Didn’t know Manafort was the head of the Mob. What about Comey and Crooked Hillary and all of the others? Very unfair!"

This bothers me as it undermines the judiciary, a co-equal branch of the government. I can't recall a former President being so openly critical and undermining of the judiciary. We are a nation of laws. If the citizens follow the example of the President and reject the judiciary, there will be anarchy. Maybe that's what Russia wants to happen?

and trumps attorney.. to me this is obstruction of justice....

Rudy Giuliani just sent a clear signal to Paul Manafort not to flip after being jailed




Quote:
President Donald Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, said Friday that "things might get cleaned up" in the Russia investigation "with some presidential pardons." Giuliani's comments came after former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort was jailed ahead of trial. Manafort's odds of flipping went through the roof after he was jailed, experts say, but a possible pardon likely stands in the way of Manafort striking a deal to cooperate with prosecutors.

a great listen, maddow reads the court preceeding of the pleading by the defence and the prosecutors for more felony charges of witness tampering that puts him in jail as a risk.

seems it was the press that dug up the material that has gotten Manaford indicted by a grand jury...

As I said we need a non lifelong Republican to be heading the investigations of trump and his band of criminals.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/russian-oligarch-loaned-10-million-manafort-business-documents-show-n887196

Quote:
A grand jury also has indicted Konstantin Kilimnik, a political operative who sometimes served as an intermediary between Manafort and Deripaska. In court filings, Mueller’s prosecutors have said Kilimnik has ties to Russian spy agencies, which Kilimnik denies.

The affidavit unsealed on Wednesday also disclosed that Deripaska had financially backed Manafort’s consulting work in Ukraine when it started in 2005-06, citing information from a source whose name was redacted, a sign that a former Manafort associate may have cooperated with the investigation.


On Tuesday, a federal judge in Virginia dealt a blow to Manafort by rejecting a motion to dismiss the case on the argument that Mueller did not have the mandate to prosecute him.

Manafort, who was Trump’s campaign manager during part of his 2016 presidential campaign, has been indicted in Washington and Virginia on charges including conspiring to launder money, bank and tax fraud and failing to register as a foreign agent for the pro-Russia Ukraine government.

Manafort has pleaded not guilty. His Virginia trial starts in July and his Washington trial is scheduled for September.

Russian oligarch loaned $10 million to Manafort business, documents show



Quote:
A meeting last year where Associated Press reporters discussed with federal officials the news outlet’s investigation of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort’s finances may have led the FBI to a storage locker the bureau raided, an FBI agent testified Friday. The unexpected testimony from FBI Agent Jeff Pfeiffer at a federal court hearing in Alexandria, Virginia, on the legality of the May 2017 search was the first live witness the government has offered against Manafort since special counsel Robert Mueller’s first indictment against the longtime lobbyist and political consultant was returned last October.

The April 2017 meeting between AP reporters and officials ...

A search warrant application unsealed on Wednesday revealed closer links than previously known between Paul Manafort, President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, and a Russian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin.

In an affidavit attached to the July 2017 application, an FBI agent said he had reviewed tax returns for a company controlled by Manafort and his wife that showed a $10 million loan from a Russian lender identified as Oleg Deripaska.

The application to search Manafort’s Virginia apartment was granted, providing key evidence for the indictments of Manafort as part of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign.

Mueller has been investigating the financial links between Manafort and Deripaska, a metals magnate who is known to be close to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Deripaska was among the Russian oligarchs sanctioned by the United States in April.

at 9 minutes discussions of Manafort being a russian agent.

really he was given 10 million by a Putin connected russian and did not pay it back... he job was to issue propaganda in the USA to influence politicians.

remember how an email was revealed that he emailed to his associate to go to top Putin russians that he would give them daily briefings.

Manafort found a way to communicate with outsiders while in jail. was this a violation of why he is sitting in jail so he can communicate with witnesses?

Manafort judge not amused, orders move to new jail

Quote:
Rachel Maddow explains the story of former Donald Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort complaining about the location of his jail, getting the judge to agree to a move, withdrawing his request for a move, and now the judge, not interested in games, forcing the move anyway.
