Speaking of Judge Amy Berman Jackson: She confirmed that #Mueller team did file #Manafort sentencing memo Friday—under seal. It will be available on the public docket—with exhibits—after redactions are made. via @CNN cnn.com/2019/02/23/pol… #TrumpRussia
💥NEW #Mueller sentencing memo on #Manafort: "Manafort presents many aggravating sentencing factors and no warranted mitigating factors. Manafort committed an array of felonies for over a decade, up through the fall of 2018…repeatedly…knowingly…remarkably…after indictment"
#Mueller sentencing memo cites #Manafort's own plea agreement where Manafort didn't dispute a sentence w/in govt guidelines range of 210-262 months. "A downward departure" is NOT warranted, says SCO. That's 17-22 years in prison for the "bold" & "hardened" criminal. #TrumpRussia

😳Meanwhile😲Florida Republican representative @MattGaetz prepares for tomorrow's Michael Cohen Congressional testimony by openly threatening the witness.

Pro-Trump propagandists treat public hearings like another FoxNews show. Just another opportunity to spin, distort, smear💩
Think how desperate Trump propagandists like Florida congressman Matt Gaetz must be to be tweeting out textbook obstruction of justice threats to witness Michael Cohen. It's as if Republicans know their power in Congress and the White House is illegitimate and about to be exposed
lol Like most propagandists, Matt Gaetz uses the First Amendment to license abuse of power. I don't think courts see obstruction of justice & witness tampering as just "marketplace of ideas." Lawyers get disbarred for threats like his to Michael Cohen. And from a congressman‼️

NEW: U.S. Cyber Command operation disrupted Internet access of Russia’s troll factory on day of 2018 midterm election washingtonpost.com/world/national…
US military operation took Russia's troll farm offline on 2018 Election Day & day after to prevent disinformation campaign casting doubt on results. Expert @RidT called Cyber Command's first show of muscle more "annoying pinprick" than longterm deterrence. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
Some US officials argue “grand strategic deterrence” isn't always the goal: “Part of our objective is to throw a little curve ball, inject a little friction, sow confusion.…We showed what’s in the realm of the possible. It’s not the old way of doing business anymore.” #TrollFarm

>> Russia says US asked for advice on dealing with North Korea thehill.com/policy/interna…
Trump's headed to #Vietnam. Guess who's already there? Russian FM Lavrov, saying US wants #Russia's "advice" on #NorthKorea—"how we see this or that scenario of what should happen in Hanoi in a couple of days." The Kremlin is advising Trump, for awhile now tass.ru/politika/61568…
Today Lavrov leaked that US sought Russia's advice on North Korea. Kremlin's positioning itself as "indispensable" to Trump. And Trump's been listening…& echoing—from language to policy. Russia says no denuclearization ultimatum. Now Trump says no rush; No testing is good enough

Manafort transcript unsealed tonight in which DC District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson rules that Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort lied intentionally after entering a plea agreement:
p.10: “My concern isn’t with non-answers or simply denials but times he affirmatively advanced a detailed alternative story that was inconsistent with the facts.”
p. 11: Judge then says Manafort’s claims about his declining health in prison were simply asserted by his lawyers with no effort to back the claims up with any support.

Judge: “It left the impression that the issue was left in the pleading for public consumption, but not mine.”

Judge grills Mueller team on claim Manafort lied

foxnews.com/politics/judge…
U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson repeatedly and bluntly pressed prosecutors to explain why Manafort's misstatements, including some that he corrected voluntarily, should affect his upcoming sentencing.
The judge, who is also handling the ongoing criminal case against Trump associate Roger Stone, openly wondered whether prosecutors had bombarded Manafort with a series of difficult and irrelevant questions during the roughly 50 hours of interviews that followed his plea deal.

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"

Judge Amy Berman Jackson has scheduled Paul Manafort's arraignment on the superseding indictment for Friday at 10 -- at the same time as the hearing on Mueller's motion to revoke his bail. /1
/2 Normally, at the arraignment on a superseding indictment like this one, for a person who was already charged and on bail, the arraignment would involve pleading not guilty and sorting out whether, and how, the new charge impacts bail status.
/3 Recall that Mueller already asked Judge Berman Jackson to revoke Manafort's bail based on the same obstruction allegations that form the basis for the superseding indictment. The standard at that hearing does not favor Manafort:
