really important point by @emptywheel: "w/ both Flynn and Manafort — where the judges have seen significant amounts of non-public information...very reasonable judges have raised explicit questions about whether Trump’s aides had betrayed their country."

House oversight: "According to the whistleblowers, the NSC Ethics Counsel and several attorneys in the NSC Legal Advisor’s office agreed that General Flynn had a potential conflict of interest that could violate the criminal conflict of interest statute"

Some context: this is related to Flynn's efforts to give Saudi Arabia sensitive nuclear technology as part of a plan developed by a private company to build nuclear facilities in the Middle East. Flynn served as an adviser to this same company through at least December 2016.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.

This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

And we're underway. #Manafort

Judge ABJ: there are no factual disputes to resolve but several legal issues to determine - whether to apply an adjustment for acceptance of responsibility and an enhancement for a leadership role in the offense.

Judge ABJ says she received lots of letters from Manafort's friends and family. "I want you to know that I appreciate all the letters and I've read them all."

Conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi in plea negotiations with Mueller, which could shed light on whether Trump or his advisers were linked to WikiLeaks’ release of hacked Democratic emails in 2016 washingtonpost.com/politics/stone…

"Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I'm back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging."

Corsi informed Stone about the planned WikiLeaks Dem email releases 2 months in advance.

And Mueller has the exchange. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…

"Stone responded, "Get to (Assange) [a]t Ecuadorian Embassy in London and get the pending (WikiLeaks) emails."

Corsi passed the request along to conservative author Ted Malloch in London"

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:
