I have a theory that would tie the Manafort case to Rudy, Parnas and Fruman

Lets start by looking at part of the superseding charges against Paul Manafort from 9/14/2018

courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Manafort is working on a "target" list in a word doc named 182708, which is most likely a date, 8/28/18. He starts editing the doc 5/15/18, he is charged the next month, June 9th, with witness tampering for reaching out to Konstantin Kilimnik among other things
At this point Manafort had a target list, somewhere to be on 8-27-18 and contacts outside the US he was working with

He is also introducing someone to the Trump campaign or WH, most likely at Trump's Nashville rally that week or his event in Texas
on track 2 we have Fruman and Parnas, who somehow hire Rudy in August 2018 as reported by @AramRoston reuters.com/article/us-usa…
Around than Rudy sends his strange letter to Romania, that undermines official US policy around corruption washingtonpost.com/politics/giuli…
Manafort had a target list dated for August 2018, Rudy is hired August 2018

Both the men hiring Rudy and Manafort had ties to Firtash, the Ukrainian oligarch trying to avoid extradition to the US nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
So where was Rudy on 8/27/18, the date of the Manafort document? He is a black hole around that time

on 8/22 he is in Scotland
he doesn't surface again until McCain's funeral on 9/1

Where he is spotted with Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko, who's brother happens to be a Ukrainian politician (this is an aside)

Rudy tweets once on 8/25 at 6:02AM EST
Once on 8/26 at 10:54 PM EST
doesn't tweet at all on 8/27-8/29 and starts tweeting again on 8/30 at 6:30 PM EST
I cant prove where Rudy was between 8/22 in Scotland and most likely 8/30 back in the US, but there is a good chance he was already working for Lev and Igor and might have gone to Eastern Europe, likely Ukraine and/or Romania

If so Ruby is picking up where Manafort left off
