I can't believe that Manafort and Stone are about to testify to their crimes. . . [View all]

They must have a reason for testifying to the intel committee, and it can't be good.

I think that they and their cohorts were put in place in the administration to assure Putin that the sanctions would get lifted and they are running out of time since Trump is blowing up his presidency.

Maybe they are going to throw someone else under the bus. Flynn?

This can't be good.
