This Is Important

We will try to have something more detailed on this shortly. But CNN a short while reported that the blockbuster news of the last three days was news to the Special Counsel’s office. There was some ambiguity about whether they learned key new information from the last four days of reports or whether they knew this stuff but only recently from Jared Kushner’s and Paul Manafort’s disclosures. Regardless, the key thing seems to be this: if we’re thinking that the FBI/Mueller has known this stuff for months, that’s wrong. They didn’t.

1. I just don't believe that. I don't think any of this is new to Mueller

considering the people on his team

2. It is possible that the NSA had some info..but maybe FBI/Mueller hadn't

Perhaps this info has not come from the NSA to Muller.

.too secret..After all, this is about the son of the president..just trying to explain that quote.

4. Chris Matthews last night, reported Manafort was ...

was interviewed a month ago and Mueller told him about it then.

5. Perhaps, but why would Marshall write the above, if Mueller knew?

Always thought he was reliable...???

[DonViejo]

6. Obviously, because he was watching CNN and believed...

what they reported
