“Special Counsel Robert Mueller is investigating possible money laundering by Paul Manafort, Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, as part of his criminal investigation into what U.S. intelligence agencies say was a Kremlin-backed campaign to meddle in the 2016 presidential election,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“The inquiry into the issue by Mr. Mueller, a former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and his team began several weeks ago.”

4. Paul Manafort, had hundreds of accounts in the Cyprus Bank with Russian cash

Flowing in and out in the matter of minutes. Looks like money laundering to me,

next we look is it a bribe.

I love the way is trying to side step the laws "quid pro quo" by making it "quid pro modified quo"

a payoff is a payoff, even if it is in the form of a loan.

Manafort, owes Russia millions, without a payment plan. I bet

6. Who in the Cabinet worked at one of those Cyprus banks again?

[MiddleClass]

7. Wilbur Ross, commerce Secretary

But there's a twist.

Connection to the Cypress bank with Russian oligarchs.

8. I have never seen anything like this

It's like the Con and his mafia have taken over the planet

[MiddleClass]

10. It was around the time "drain the swamp" turned into "add alligators"

I think the reason it wasn't a great deal because of the banishment of the vast majority of Russian mobsters.

The kind of didn't fully fit the narrative.

It seems he is a Gordon gecko "greed is good" type Wall Street character, not an actual mobster

[malaise]

11. Good one
