Bada bing bada boom.
Manafort viewed Jewish concern about anti-Semitism as a tool to operationalize on behalf of a thug client.
This Israeli involvement in Manafort's effort to trade on the idea that Obama wasn't sufficiently anti-anti-Semitism is a big deal. "MANAFORT coordinated privately with a senior Israeli government official to issue a written statement publicizing this story."
Mueller sideswipes former Euro politicians selling their credibility for a few bucks.

The Senate Intelligence Committee has sent a letter seeking to interview Randy Credico, who Roger Stone claims was his WikiLeaks connection. motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
Credico plans to decline to voluntarily cooperate with the Intel Committee. That's based partly on advice from his attorney Martin Stolar, who says: “I don’t trust [Burr] and I don’t want to set Randy up to be charged with some kind of perjury even if he’s telling the truth.”
“It’s kind of like the fix is in," Stolar said. "They’re taking a line that is favorable to the president no matter what you tell them.”
“It’s a clown show. It’s a witch hunt.”

The FBI said Flynn lied. Flynn, in his guilty plea, also admitted he lied. But this Trump citation marks a banner day for the idiotic but unkillable idea that it's exonerating for Flynn that, before obtaining evidence showing that Flynn lied, FBI agents didn't know he was lying.
It's close to impossible to read Flynn's Statement of Offense, in which he admitted falsely telling the FBI he hadn't talked to Kislyak during the transition about sanctions, when actually he had, without accepting that he lied. It's on the internet: justice.gov/file/1015126/d…
There have been like 47 articles by Byron York et al. asserting that the agents who interviewed Flynn initially believed him, so somehow that means he didn't lie. That is nonsense. It just means he lied convincingly, as effective liars do. But evidence falsified his claims.

It's weird that evidence, which Republicans sought to hide, suggesting Kavanaugh has made false statements to Congress about at least five matters, aren't a bigger deal. motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
Republicans suppressed this info presumably because it appears to contradict his past testimony. So it's not realistic to think revelation of those contradictions alone will change GOP views. But big enough public reaction to his alleged fibbing could complicate confirmation.

Bada bing bada boom! Manafort began babbling, aka cooperating, aka spilling the beans to Special Counsel's Office on Monday September 10, 2018.

Look on page 9 of Mueller's superceding indictment papers on Manafort filed in federal court.

documentcloud.org/documents/4883…
"Your client knowingly & voluntarily hereby waives the rights that arise under these rules to object to the use of all such statements by him ON and AFTER September 10, 2018, in the event your client breaches this agreement...."

Going to do a (short?) THREAD on the #Manafort Superceding Criminal Information. Need to tease out some info that will come up re media involvement and Congressional Rs 😉

assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4883…
First, just tagging a Manafort shell co that I hadn't heard mentioned before, yet the date/loc interests me: Pompolo Limited created 4/13, UK (pg 6):

E.g., this is the first shell co that Manafort reg'd in the UK. WHY❓ 🧐
Mueller tells us Manafort used the shell cos to hide payments he received from Ukraine authorities:

#Manafort charging document for today's guilty plea includes details of his planting disinformation in US press to smear political rivals of his pro-Russia clients in Ukraine. Eg "Plant some stink on Tymo"—painting a female rival as a criminal who paid for murder. Sound familiar?
Manafort had used the same propaganda smear tactics in Ukraine that Trump rolled out in his campaign for president in 2016. Manafort not only had Tymo soliciting murder. He pushed tribal divisions, using "Obama Jews" & anti-Semitism to tarnish her. assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4883…
#Manafort manipulated the media with disinformation and then used those planted news stories to manipulate US govt: "I have someone pushing it on the NY Post. Bada bing bada boom…The Jewish community will take this out on Obama on election day if he does nothing.”
