Huge story from @ErinBanco. My guess is the Mideast focus is more about corruption after the election than election interference. This s/d worry Trump. Art. 2 is clear: POTUS “shall be” impeached for “treason, BRIBERY, or other high crimes...” 1/ thedailybeast.com/get-ready-for-…
How did this Mideast focus come about? My guess is that Mueller began looking into the Seychelles meeting on Jan 11 w/ Erik Prince, the head of the Russian sov wealth fund, and UAE leader MBZ...and George Nader. 2/
Our guess is that Seychelles wasn’t about setting up a secret backchannel (they were already meeting!) but about cutting a deal. Possibly a “Mideast Marshall Plan” involving civ-nuke deal b/w US-Russia, funded by the Gulf costing 100s of BNs of dollars. 3/ thedailybeast.com/get-ready-for-…
So in looking at this meeting Mueller started pulling threads and he pulled the George Nader thread... potentially connecting to Elliot Broidy... where it sure looks like a lot of potential corruption was going on. 4/
While the “Mideast Marshall Plan” fell apart after Flynn left, the Gulf states saw how the Trump guys operated... money talks.
Remember Cohen was running a defacto pay to play bribery operation w/ “Essential Consultants.” 5/ nytimes.com/2018/05/08/us/…

So when Mueller outlined that Flynn cooperated in two other redacted investigations, perhaps one of those is into bribery related to the Mideast. We shall see.... but a bribery charge w/d leave no doubt about the need for an impeachment process. The founders were clear on that.
