BREAKING: The Manhattan district attorney’s office is preparing state criminal charges against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort to ensure he will still face prison time even if Trump pardons him for his federal crimes.
by @WRashbaum #Maddow nyti.ms/2NjTgLA
The New York D.A. began investigating Manafort in 2017 but deferred the inquiry so as not to interfere with Mueller’s case. They resumed their investigation recently and a state grand jury is expected to wrap up and vote on charges in coming weeks.

Interesting Oct story I missed: FBI looking at Manhattan DA Cy Vance Jr's office over potential undue influence in handling of cases: sources - including why Vance didn't pursue charges against Weinstein and Ivanka & Don Jr (re Trump Soho) by @shaynajacobs nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-me…
A lawyer hired by Weinstein gave Vance $24,000 and another attorney sent $10,000 after the decision to spare Weinstein an arrest.

Marc Kasowitz, gave Vance $25,000 and another $32,000 was donated after the office declined to prosecute Ivanka & Trump Jr.

Manafort’s former right-hand man Rick Gates is once again testifying about how helped his boss conceal millions of dollars and defraud banks that provided loans bloom.bg/2OTJsIO
Gates began his testimony Monday with an account of how he spent a decade with Manafort in Ukraine, where he said they were paid by wealthy businessmen there. They wired money into Cyprus accounts, and Gates helped Manafort move it to the U.S., he said bloom.bg/2OTJsIO
Prosecutors say they’ll question Gates for about 3 more hours, and then he’s expected to undergo a grueling cross-examination by lawyers for Manafort, Trump’s former campaign chairman bloom.bg/2OTJsIO

So the key @WhiteHouse access reporter from the @nytimes doesn't see today's events as #BREAKING.

That is hard to fathom.

#HelsinkiSummit
.@maggieNYT stood with @PressSec against @Acosta during the #TrumpUKVisit.

Haberman also supported SHS after the #WHCD and the #RedHen incident. In 2017, Haberman said the cast of #Hamilton was rude to @VP Pence and that it was unseemly, as he was VP.
.@maggieNYT was primary reporter on the Hillary Clinton email beat. MH was personally bylined on 53 stories related to Clinton's emails.

No newspaper or reporter had more detailed coverage--incl the front page after the #ComeyLetter which NYT's own Upshot said cost the election.
