*****BREAKING*****MUELLER TOLD MANAFORT TO EXPECT AN INDICTMENT

[Ms. Toad]

19. That phrase appears nowhere in the article.

It is the caption on a tweet which, because of the need to fit in 140 characters, is devoid of context.

The context of the expectation you quoted was as a threat used in connection with the execution of the search warrant in july.

WASHINGTON — Paul J. Manafort was in bed early one morning in July when federal agents bearing a search warrant picked the lock on his front door and raided his Virginia home. They took binders stuffed with documents and copied his computer files, looking for evidence that Mr. Manafort, President Trump’s former campaign chairman, set up secret offshore bank accounts. They even photographed the expensive suits in his closet.

The special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, then followed the house search with a warning: His prosecutors told Mr. Manafort they planned to indict him, said two people close to the investigation.

I.e. it was a threat made in July - that may or may not have been a real threat at the time, and even if it was true in July the article does not even hint that it is that is a current expectation.

Fake news (the DU caption indicating the current expectation is an indictment) is not helpful - regardless of which side promotes it.
