This morning, Mueller's office filed a superseding criminal information against ex-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort. Prosecutors typically use this type of filing when they expect the defendant to plead guilty. 
It's totally normal for prosecutors to file a criminal information when someone is going to plead. But this filing is very unusual. It's a "speaking" information - 37 pages long with multiple exhibits. That's not something you see often.
I've never, ever seen a felony information that includes exhibits. This one has almost 40 pages of them.
Manafort is now scheduled for an arraignment and plea agreement hearing this morning before Judge Jackson. Expect him to plead guilty to the two counts in the felony information that was filed today.
Here's the superseding information. It repeats a lot of the factual allegations in the earlier indictments, and wraps a lot of them into two conspiracy counts. -> documentcloud.org/documents/4883…
