My take on the Russia Gate after listening to Rachel Maddow tonite.

DT should be very worried. The different intelligence agencies uncovered the connections revealed today. This is likely just the tip of what they have and it won't be pretty for DT. This will identify DT more and more as a traitor.

4. They are as guilty as Russia and the Religious Right.

All of them are intertwined and guilty of financially contributing to the GOP and the Fucking Moron.

7. I don't think it's a coincidence that the new indictments and the new Manafort charges

came on the same day. Something is going on.

8. It wasn't a superceding indictment on Manafort

The new info was part of the bail filing. My first thought was this came from Gates assuming he's in the process of becoming a cooperating witness and already did his "Queen for a Day" session. Mueller wouldn't have had time to confirm whatever Gates said, but since a potential cooperator must be truthful, Mueller must have felt the info was good enough to include as part of the bail filing.

I think Mueller wants to revoke bail entirely and have Manafort put in custody, i.e., jail, until his trial. That plus a superceding indictment might be what's needed to flip Manafort.
