Mueller to release memo on Friday detailing what Manafort lied about leading to the termination of his plea agreement.

You can bet your house the document will also serve as a read-out on elements of the overall Trump-Russia conspiracy and Trump himself.

1/
It won't be a comprehensive report on Trump's full criminality and may be somewhat limited since it is ostensibly a document about Manafort specifically.

However, I'd lay down a hefty wager the doc will also reveal add'l new information damaging to Trump personally.

2/
So, that's coming on Friday.

Also due on Friday: Mueller's sentencing memo re: Michael Cohen.

That doc can detail anything at all related to Cohen's criminal conduct (charged or uncharged) and like the above, will almost certainly serve to further implicate Trump.

3/
Friday is going to be bonkers... so batten down thine hatches and stock thine cupboard with the finest of popped corn.

Guessing we're in for some major doings between now and then though.

Gonna be a crazy week. Good crazy though.

4/4

In case you were wondering what kind of person would get off on inciting a swarm of rightwing trolls to pollute Elizabeth Warren’s feed, here you go...

This is Comfortably Smug.

As people worried about lost homes and missing loved ones after Hurricane Sandy, Smug thought it was funny to spread misinformation and provoke panic.

Tripathi apparently isn’t a fan of people being reminded of what an a**hole he is, so he’ll likely block you if you reacquaint him with pieces like this one.

I think people are making too much of the Trump-on-Adderall thing and misattributing behaviors to an Rx that isn’t the likely culprit.

Along the reasons: Adderall is readil available in a quickly metabolizing form so there would be no real need to snort it.

1/
People often crush meds to defeat time-release formulations.

If a pill’s compounds are made harder to breakdown, they take effect more gradually.

Crushing them defeats that onboarding speed limit and rushes and concentrate the effects.

2/
Also, Trump seems genuinely ADHDish and the effects of Adderall on people appropriately prescribed for ADHD are vastly different than on people taking it inappropriately.

Adderall is often calming and focusing for people w ADHD. It’s primarily a stimulant for people w/o ADHD.

History best remembers “The First”.

The first person to do something undone. The first to overcome a barrier or reach a new height.

Given less than their due are the ones who pushed but were turned back.

The people who inspired others to reach for things once unreachable.

1/
Today was a day of historic firsts.

The first Congress with 100 women.

The first Native American and Somali-American Congresswomen.

The first openly Bi Congresswoman - or member of Congress at all.

...and on and on.

2/
In her 2008 Primary concession speech, Hillary Clinton said that there was a success even in her losing:

It would now be unremarkable for a woman to seek the presidency, to win primaries, to be the nominee.

It would be unremarkable for women to seek even the highest office.

"[Manafort] He is now in a far worse position than if he had never elected to cooperate, or if he had followed through on his agreement." #WednesdayWisdom #Mueller
nytimes.com/2018/11/27/opi…
2/"How to make sense of the bizarre turn of events involving Paul Manafort? Two months ago, he struck a plea deal with Robert Mueller, the special counsel — he pleaded guilty but agreed to provide full and truthful information in exchange for a more lenient sentence.
3/"But according to a filing by Mr. Mueller’s team on Monday, Mr. Manafort lied to them repeatedly, and after multiple warnings. He is now in a far worse position than if he had never elected to cooperate, or if he had followed through on his agreement. What was he thinking?

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:

12:11pm #Manafort told the judge: "I plead guilty."

Paul Manafort enters cooperation agreement with Justice Department cnn.com/2018/09/14/pol…
The #Manafort plea agreement includes
▪interviews with #Mueller
▪briefings with the office of Special Counsel
▪turning over documents related to Trump
▪testifying in other proceedings

That last will most directly impact Donald Trump Jr.

Now would be the time for a pardon.
Trump really has no concern for anyone. His oldest child is now threatened and nothing.

Trump always knew #Manafort could put Don Jr. in prison next to him and he dangled the hint of a pardon, but that's all.

Manafort's plea doesn't hurt Trump, but it sure hurts Jr.
Huh.

This from ABC News 2 hours ago re #Mueller and #Manafort: tinyurl.com/ya4thzgd

But the big news isn’t in the headline. It’s this:
1/ There is ZERO chance that Manafort is going to get the kind of plea agreement the leak says he is seeking. (Mueller has shown a greater determination to flip Manafort about Trump than for anything else in his investigation.)

BOOM! Great news for the Mueller timeline. Now things can REALLY start moving forward.

Flip Cohen, then Manafort (and indict Stone, probably others as well); write COLLUSION report b/f the Nov 6 election. #mueller #michaelcohen tinyurl.com/yb3u9tzf
1/ The materials will be determinative for Cohen in deciding what he will have to proffer, and will be useful for Mueller in assessing what kind of plea agreement might be involved in getting Cohen to flip.
2/ Note that the AP article mentions only the business dealings. This is misleading almost to the point of being fake news.

The US Attorneys’ objection to the request by Cohen for a two-week delay in processing the materials captured in the raid is significant--b/c this isn’t just about taxi medallions. It’s about Trump-Russia collusion. #mueller #michaelcohen tinyurl.com/y7e8jpll
1/ The Mueller Team & the feds in NY and DC have a timeline, and they want to get moving on it. Mueller will not be interested in a proffer or plea agreement negotiations until he has seen the materials taken in the raid. (And lawyers for Cohen know that.) #mueller #michaelcohen
2/ The government is showing its hand here. It wants to get Cohen to flip SOON. That in itself is important, but it’s also important for getting Manafort to flip (who is resisting). #mueller #michaelcohen
