Six pages listing transactions through third parties originating in Cyprus for millions of dollars of purchases in the USA.
For example $934,350 for an antique rug vendor in Alexandria, Virginia.
$849,215 at a men's clothing store in New York City.
The document uses the words "lavish lifestyle".

(48,965 posts)Page 29:
"the United States will seek forfeiture as part of any sentence" on conviction under Count Two (Conspiracy to Launder Money).
Then they list two properties in NYC, one in Virginia, and one in New York State. The NYC properties are probably worth more than $3,000,000 each.

(4,986 posts)I am not sure how much of this will splash onto Trump.
None of the monetary transactions appear to have occurred while Manafort was part of the Trump campaign.
Am I missing something?
