THREAD: Months *before* Rick Gates pleaded guilty, Mueller told Gates he had *plenty of evidence* to NAIL Manafort.🤗

Instead, Mueller wanted Gates' help to investigate ties btwn Trump campaign & #Russia🇷🇺to make a case for “collusion”‼️1/

Here is a written version of the story👇🏼 2/

cnn.com/2018/03/29/pol…
Gates was indicted for MULTIPLE serious crimes, yet received a relatively lenient plea deal, as did Misha🇷🇺Flynn (at least thus far).🤨

FBI probing the NRA for using *illegal* #Russian🇷🇺money to help Trump win‼️

The NRA reported it spent a *record $55 million* on 2016 elections, including $30 million for Trump – TRIPLE what it spent for Mitt Romney in 2012.🤨 1/

Even WORSE:

👉🏼Most of the $55 million was spent by an arm of the NRA that is *not required to disclose its donors*
👉🏼Two people w/close connections to the NRA said its total election spending actually was *$70 million*

2/
The gap btwn the $55 million (reported) and $70 million (actual) may be b/c independent groups are *not required to report how much they spend on Internet ads or field operations*, including get-out-the-vote efforts‼️🤬 3/
