Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, who's serving a federal prison sentence, will be sent to Rikers Island this week, and likely put in solitary confinement, while facing state fraud charges brought by Manhattan DA Cy Vance.

ICYMI: On March 13, a Manhattan grand jury handed up an indictment charging Paul Manafort with 16 state felonies in case brought by Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance to ensure Manafort would still face prison if Trump pardoned him for his federal crimes.

March 13, Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance: "The NEW state charges against Paul Manafort are contained in a 16-count indictment alleging a yearlong scheme in which he falsified business records to obtain millions of dollars in loans."

Recall this SCOOP by @gregfarrel on Feb 22, 2019: Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance’s office has identified areas where Manafort can be charged with state offenses without triggering double jeopardy protections.

Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator in criminal case involving his hush payments to women he slept with right after his 3rd wife gave birth to his 5th child. He, Ivanka, Don Jr, and Eric are under investigation for fraud and tax evasion.

So no, they are not like the Kennedys.
LOL. @nytimes just deleted this tweet after getting ratio'ed to hell.

Obstruction in plain sight: White House directs former WH Comms Director, Hope Hicks, and former WH counsel chief of staff, Annie Donaldson, to withhold WH documents from Congress.

Per @mkraju, Hope Hicks could still be forced to testify about her time on the campaign.
Per @mkraju: @RepJerryNadler said this morning that Hope Hicks and Annie Donaldson would likely be held in contempt if the do not comply with their subpoenas.
NEW: Former White House Communications Director Hope Hicks, once a very close aide to Trump, has agreed to turn over documents related to Trump's 2016 presidential campaign to congressional investigators, per @RepJerryNadler.

NEW: Key Mueller probe witness George Nader has been indicted on child pornography charges. Nader helped arrange the Jan 2017 Seychelles meeting between Trump envoy Erik Prince & a Russian official close to Putin.

From Mar 2018 by @NatashaBertrand: George Nader, who frequented the White House in 2017 to meet with Bannon and Jared Kushner, was indicted in 1985 on child pornography charges. One source warned an Arab official to “keep his kids away from Nader.”

Republican Senator: Dmytro #Firtash "earned millions while fighting extradition to U.S.

Dmytro Firtash has been under indictment in Chicago since 2014. He was also involved in a failed business deal w/ex-Trump campaign chair Paul #Manafort." #Bvlgari

nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1…
"Sen Roger Wicker, R-MS, wrote in an 4/18 letter obtained by NBC News that #Firtash had served as a "direct agent of the Kremlin" and was using the money earned from ONGOING "corruption" to delay his extradition to Chicago, where he has been under federal indictment since 2014."
Ahem:

"Firtash was indicted in 2014 for...his role in bribing INDIAN officials in order to get a lucrative mining deal to sell titanium to BOEING. He was arrested in Vienna in 3/14, released on $174 MILLION bail, and has been contesting his extradition to the U.S. ever since."

Trump’s circle is still in legal peril: “the biggest legal minefield here is the number of different offices looking at this,” said Berit Berger, a former federal prosecutor who’s now at Columbia Law School. “You can’t say they’re all witch hunts.” chicagotribune.com/news/nationwor…
As we wait for Barr to reveal the Mueller Report, let’s review.

This article provides a good overview of the many ongoing investigations into TeamTrump all of which are being handled by the DOJ or have been framed out to other jurisdictions.
Remember Mueller’s focus is narrow.
📌Federal prosecutors in New York are investigating the Trump Organization and his 2016 campaign for possible campaign finance violations.

📌They’ve also issued subpoenas to Trump’s inaugural committee.

Trump-Russia 2.0: Dossier-Tied Firm Pitching Journalists Daily on Collusion realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2019/…
Key Democratic operatives and private investigators who tried to derail Donald Trump’s campaign have rebooted their operation since his election with a multimillion-dollar stealth campaign to persuade major media outlets and lawmakers that the president should be impeached.
The operation’s nerve center is a Wash DC nonprofit called The Democracy Integrity Project or TDIP. Among other activities, it pumps out daily “research” briefings to prominent Washington journalists as well as congressional staffers to keep the Russia “collusion” narrative alive
