A Top Bernie Sanders Adviser Is Named In The Evidence List For Paul Manaforts Trial
An exhibit list released this week in the Mueller investigation cites emails from 2014.
It was previously reported that Tad Devine, a top Sanders strategist, stopped working in Ukraine in 2012. He lied.
SNIP
His role in the investigation entangles the Sanders orbit in an expansive government inquiry that has probed questions surrounding Russias interference in the US election, Trumps potential obstruction of justice, and the insider world of lobbying and influence in Washington that runs counter to the Vermont senators own brand of insurgent anti-establishment politics.
Devines firm, Devine Mulvey Longabaugh, continues to do work for Sanders, who is running for reelection in the US Senate this year, as well as other 2018 candidates.
Manafort and his former associate Rick Gates, who served as Trumps deputy campaign chair, worked on behalf of Viktor Yanukovych, the former pro-Russia president of Ukraine, beginning in the mid-2000s.
Devine also worked in Ukraine with Manafort on Yanukovychs behalf a long-public business arrangement.

Such a fine bunch to be closely connected to.
The trail leads straight to Putin.
I'm sure Mueller will put it all in perspective real soon.
Sure would be good if Mueller can lift the Manafort/Devine weight hanging from Sanders' shoulders.
We'll wait...

The words "He lied." are not in the article either. Those were causally added by the OP
