1. FINALLY news that's worth covering and talking about. remember, people? THE RUSSIA INVESTIGATION and the conspiracy the ENTIRE TRUMP CAMPAIGN was part of with the Kremlin IS WHERE IT'S AT. THAT is what will DESTROY all of them, bc TREASON. So, Paulie... Russian loan, huh?
2. While this had been reported, there was NO official confirmation that Oleg Deripaska had given Manafort a $10 mln loan. Now according to unsealed search warrant application for Manafort's Virginia apartment, there is official confirmation from tax returns the FBI reviewed.
3. The affidavit attached to the search warrant request that's been unsealed, says the FBI reviewed tax returns for a company controlled by Manafort and his wife. It also says (again which we knew but not officially) that Deripaska financially backed Manafort's work in Ukraine.
4. Buried lede: the search warrant confirms that Mueller is investigating the TRUMP TOWER MEETING between Trump jr. and Russian spies as we now know, including lawyer Veselnitskaya, and he's investigating Manafort's role in it.
5. The FBI sought “communications, records, documents and other files involving any of the attendees of the June 9, 2016, meeting at Trump tower, as well as Aras and Emin Agalarov". So if you had any doubts, it's official. And GOPers have NOWHERE TO HIDE about this now.
6. The other reminder is that Konstantin Kilimnik , the "former" Russian Intelligence officer who worked with Gates and Manafort and whom Gates KNEW was a spy, was sometimes the intermediary between Deripaska and Manafort.
7. For a refresher on Kilimnik, and Van der Zwaan (who's in jail after lying to Mueller) giving Mueller phone records showing Gates & Manafort were willfully conspiring with Kilimnik, knowing he was a spy, see here:

8. And oh yes, this directly implicates Manafort's WIFE re: the search warrants, per the documents Reuters reports about. BLOOP!

9. Full story at Reuters here:

10. Cherry on the cake, not to forget. Mueller has indicted Kilimnik via superseding indictment. So bloopity, bloop, bloop. Manafort's in prison (always remember that) and this was just revealed. WIFE is directly involved as well. Manafort has not much choice but to flip.
11. Oh and, don't think that the "hiding Manafort in prison" thing is just coincidental. US is showing him that if they want they CAN protect him. But if they decide not to? Well Paulie, it's polonium tea time.
12. The official and direct confirmation of what Mueller is investigating and of Deripaska's loan to Manafort is important for two reasons: 1) tells us Mueller has EVERYTHING & Paulie & wife are toast 2) shows that MSM correctly reported on Mueller's investigation.
13. In essence, US is telling Manafort "we have you AND wife, darling, and see? We can protect you. OR you can spend life in prison" Mind you, Manafort is NEVER seeing the outside of a prison cell again unless he cooperates. So... :D #MuellerIsComing /END.

1. Simon Kukes, a Houston-based oil executive, sent an email to a Russian official in Moscow in July 2016, boasting of his connections to Trump campaign and requesting a face-to-face meeting. The official is Vyacheslav Pavlovsky, a former Russian ambassador to Norway.
2. NBC HAS THE EMAILS. Kukes wrote to Pavlovsky" I have been actively involved in Trump's election campagn, and am part of the group on strategy deveopment. I will be in Switzerland July 20 to Aug. 2. Let me know how you are doing and whether you want to meet." Oh. OH.
3. NBC obtained emails through a London-based investigative project funded by MIkhail Khodorkovsky, a Russian opposition figure. The Dossier Center gathers information to try to expose high-level corruption in Moscow. NBC reviewed the emails in conjunction with The Guardian.

1. MANAFORT AGREED TO PLEA DEAL WITH MUELLER. Politely bear in mind, no matter what we actually SEE of this, given the evidence Mueller has, there's NO WAY Mueller entered a plea deal without meaningful cooperation. The cooperation part? Can easily be sealed.
2. This means Manafort could easily do the same as Cohen. Just plead guilty to n. counts, and we don't see any "cooperation" agreement. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The two can easily be separated, with the cooperation agreement sealed for obvious reasons here.
3. I absolutely don't think the news about the "joint defense agreement" is current and I also think it is being put out for a specific reason. It's clear that there's been coordinated effort to make everyone think Manafort won't "flip" . That's the easiest way to protect him.

1. Manafort is INDEED in talks with prosecutors (MEANING MUELLER bc HE is the prosecutor in this case) about a possible plea deal. BLOOP, people. BLOOP!
2. Two people familiar with the matter "cautioned that the negotiations may not result in a deal with special counsel Robert Mueller". Naturally, bc there won't be a deal unless Manafort sings like the birdiest birdie that has ever sung.
3. "But the discussions indicate a possible shift in strategy for Manafort" No kidding. When the prospect of the rest of his life in prison materialized, Manafort finally saw that oopsie, he was cornered and if he ever wanted to enjoy life again? Best to talk to Mueller, stat.

OH IMAGINE THAT. Guess who knows all about this? Michael Cohen. Who took care of this type of business. FOR TRUMP.
2. The details of the story are BEYOND disgusting but pay attention to this detail that former Playmate Shera Bechard cites in her LAWSUIT against Broidy: "Bechard recalled Broidy telling her that he admired Trump’s "uncanny ability to sexually abuse women and get away with it.""
3. "Among Bechard’s allegations are that Broidy refused to wear condoms and didn’t disclose to her that he had genital herpes until years after their sexual relationship, according to a court filing. "
Not even going to comment.

1. Bruce Ohr is the Justice Department lawyer who was told by Christopher Steele that Russian intelligence believed it had Trump "over a barrel". Start seeing why Trump is going after him?
2. These details pertain to a breakfast that happened on July 30, 2016. Ohr described the breakfast to CONGRESS this week in a private interview. And that's how the GOP Trump lackeys went to tell Trump, he found out and decided he can't have a witness at DoJ.
3. So if Trump so much as THINKS of touching Bruce Ohr, that is direct obstruction of justice, and his tweets already constitute witness tampering. AND everyone in Congress who was present at the interview KNOWS that. Just so you know who to hold accountable.

1. What Cohen's actually explosive knowledge of facts covers, that can make the entire house of cards crash: the hacking and the Trump Tower meeting, both of which TRUMP KNEW about and in the hacking case, an event Trump even encouraged.
2. In the case of the hacking, there's a $50,000 mysterious payment Cohen made to an undisclosed tech company to help the Trump campaign, that awfully sounds like the arrangements the Steele dossier says Cohen made to pay off Russian hackers "without it being traced".
3. Cohen's lawyer Lanny Davis specifically said on @maddow that Cohen has knowledge about the hacking that is of interest for Mueller. And the detail of the tech company payment emerged from the indictment. If the connection is accurate (and it seems like it is), this is huge.
