Tied right in with the GOP and Manafort it appears AFTER he left the WH.

"The indictment stems from work Craig did with GOP lobbyist Paul Manafort while Craig was a partner at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, the law firm he joined after ending his tenure at the White House."

What rabid righties don't seem to understand is that we liberals love to hear this. Let the investigations play out and see if there is anything serious there.

Interesting - it involves RUSSIANS. Yet the Righties tell us there is nothing unlawful or even untoward concerning Russia.....it must be one or the other.

I vote THAT IT IS MORE RUSSIA...owning parts of America, including parts of Trump Inc.

This what the Mueller investigation was about. Find out what happened and fix it. Why is the right so afraid of that point?

You still haven't read the article -- they were both Foreign Lobbyists who failed to register. They both did some work for Ukraine. They did not "work together" ..... but we certainly understand why Leftists would refuse to accept that the former Obama White House Counsel has been indicted by a Grand Jury the way that a 3 month old Campaign person for Trump was indicted. Of course Saint Mueller didn't choose to bring the Clinton/Obama guy before the Grand Jury and neither did the famous SDNY ...

But he finally got there anyway. New Sheriff and all that.

It looks like Mueller is "draining the swamp".

They want false equivalency - as if someone who left the Obama white house, joined a GOP firm and may have been involved in something...is exactly the same as Trump and all the clowns around him being personally involved, pleading guilty, etc.

To them it's all the same - smoking weed and murder. Both crimes.

Big difference on this thread compared to Gates, Manafort and others being indicted. I don't see anyone complaining about this indictment or defending Obama's counsel.

Country over Party.
so the liberals here agree the Trump team didn't collude with the Russians? Some here missed the memo. They're still whining.

Well.......................... Obama committed many corrupt, shady acts. The problem is that the Atty General, FBI, and the deep state was "all in" on protecting any democrats and subverting justice.


Now the shoe is on the other foot. The Dems, in their zeal to kill Trump, opened a can of worms they never intended. Now the corruption of the Obama admin is revealed and the indictments will start rolling in. This is just the tip of the iceberg.


The Dems opened Pandora's box in trying to impeach Trump. Now that the justice system is not charged with hiding their crimes, Obama's cronies will start to be indicted.

The real question is, why is Trump running as far away from Assange and wikileaks as hard as he can after all the nice things he said about them while he was campaigning...?

Manafort worked as an arm of the Kremlin for years in Ukraine yet Trump chose to hire him as a campaign manager. Leftists refuse to accept? you need to read through the posts.
