From NewsWeek:
Watters read the first text: [Paul] Manafort is a criminal, after Robert Mueller said Trumps former campaign chairman had lied to the special counsels office during the Russia investigation, after Manafort had previously been found guilty on eight felony fraud charges.
"Short and sweet, Mom," Watters said about the text.
In another text, Watters's mother wrote: Jesse, the Mueller investigation is now a 3 pronged attackyou read Axiosand you are coming across as utterly unethical and valueless? Why do that?
"You don't have the expertise nor the knowledge to question the special counsel's investigation until you know what they know," Anne Watters added. Hush Jesse.
Watterss mother also reminded her son that "we are a nation of laws and asked him to tone down the strident attack on our court system.
