PAUL MANAFORT NOW THE FIRST TO
FACE CHARGES IN THE RUSSIA
INVESTIGATION. MANAFORT WILL
MAKE HIS FIRST COURT
APPEARANCE. PAUL MANAFORT
EXPECTED TO FACE A JUDGE AT
1:30 PM THIS AFTERNOON ALONG
WITH HIS FORMER BUSINESS
PARTNER.
THE INDICTMENT PAINTS BOTH MEN
AS FINANCIAL CRIMINALS DOES NOT
MENTION COLLUSION WITH RUSSIA
OR PRESIDENT TRUMP.
STILL MANY LEGAL ANALYST
BELIEVE THIS IS JUST THE FIRST
OF MANY MOVES FROM SPECIAL
COUNSEL. PAUL MANAFORT
COVERED HIS FACE AS HE LEFT HIS
HOME IN VIRGINIA THIS
MORNING. THE 68-YEAR-OLD
ARRIVED AT THE FBI FIELD OFFICE
IN WASHINGTON DC TO SURRENDER
HIMSELF TO AUTHORITIES.
MANAFORT AND HIS FORMER
BUSINESS PARTNER ARE FACING 12
COUNTS INCLUDING CONSPIRACY
AGAINST THE UNITED STATES,
CONSPIRACY TO LAUNDER MONEY,
SEVEN COUNTS OF FAILURE TO FILE
REPORTS OF FOREIGN BANKS AND
FINANCIAL ACCOUNTS AND MAKING
FALSE STATEMENTS.
THE INDICTMENT ALLEGES MANAFORT
HIT WORK AS AGENTS OF THE
UKRAINIAN GOVERNMENT AND
POLITICAL PARTIES AND TRYING TO
COVER UP MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
THEY MADE FROM THAT WORK.
ADDS A SUBSTANTIAL LAYER OF
COMPLEXITY.

INVESTIGATION. MANAFORT AND
GATES WILL BE BROUGHT HERE

ARRAIGNED DURING THEIR FIRST

REVEALED GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS OF

FALSE STATEMENTS TO THE FBI.
THE WASHINGTON POST REPORTED IN
AUGUST THAT PAPADOPOULOS SENT
AN EMAIL TO TRIM CAMPAIGN
OFFICIALS IN MARCH 2016
OFFERING TO SET UP A MEETING
WITH RUSSIAN LEADERSHIP
INCLUDING PRESIDENT PUTIN.
THIS INVESTIGATION IS EXPECTED
TO LAST FOR MONTHS IF NOT YEARS
AND MUCH OF IT IS STRATEGIZING
TO GET KEY PLAYERS IN PLACE.
THE FACT THAT PAPADOPOULOS PLED
GUILTY IS A STRONG INDICATION
THAT HE IS COOPERATING WITH
INVESTIGATORS. WHAT IS
PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYING?
THE PRESIDENT HAS TWEETED
ALREADY SAYING SORRY, BUT THIS
IS YEARS AGO BEFORE PAUL
MANAFORT JOINED THE TRIM
CAMPAIGN.
HE ALSO SAID HE WONDERED WHY
THE FOCUS WAS NOT ON HILLARY
AND THE DEMS AND HE ADDED THERE
