WASHINGTON — Paul Manafort shared Trump campaign polling data with an associate tied to Russian intelligence during the 2016 campaign, prosecutors alleged, according to a court filing unsealed on Tuesday.The accusations came to light in a document filed by Mr. Manafort’s defense lawyers that was supposed to be partly blacked out but contained a formatting error that accidentally revealed the information.
Prosecutors for the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, broke off a plea agreement with Mr. Manafort in November, accusing him of repeatedly lying to them. The details of their accusations have been kept largely secret until now.
In one portion of the filing that Mr. Manafort’s lawyers tried to redact, they instead also revealed that Mr. Manafort “may have discussed a Ukraine peace plan” with the Russian associate, Konstantin V. Kilimnik, “on more than one occasion.”
Investigators have been questioning witnesses about whether Russia tried to influence the Trump administration to broker a resolution to hostilities between Russia and Ukraine. Various “peace plans” were proposed, including at least one that called for the lifting of American sanctions against Russia. Mr. Manafort and Mr. Kilimnik had worked closely together for years on behalf of Russia-aligned Ukrainian interests.
Prosecutors have also accused Mr. Manafort of misleading them about his contacts with senior administration officials, about a payment from a pro-Trump political action committee made to cover his legal expenses, and about how he and Mr. Kilimnik tried to influence the testimony of witnesses to ward off criminal charges.
In their filing, Mr. Manafort’s defense lawyers said that Mr. Manafort never intentionally misled federal authorities. Instead, they blamed a faulty memory, lack of access to his own records and illness for his mistakes, saying their client has gout, depression and anxiety.
But they said that they would not seek a hearing to challenge the prosecutors’ assertions Mr. Manafort lied, a decision that brings Mr. Manafort one step closer to being sentenced for his crimes. He was convicted last year of 10 felonies including conspiracy to obstruct justice and failure to disclose years of lobbying work for pro-Russia oligarchs in Ukraine.
The decision not to seek a hearing reflected the dearth of legal choices for Mr. Manafort, 69, who led Mr. Trump’s campaign during a crucial period in mid-2016, then became a prime target of Mr. Mueller’s team. One prosecution in Northern Virginia resulted in his jury conviction in August for bank fraud, tax fraud and other financial crimes. A second led to his guilty plea in September on two conspiracy charges.

ALL you do is copy and paste articles. 

Here’s an idea .... Read an article, summarize it and give an opinion about it without a goofy clown emoji. 

 

I get accused of "raging" when I cut and paste and try and make things simple for you Trumpers...imagine if I gave an opinion?...🤡

Trump's campaign manager, Paul Manafort, gave the campaign's polling data to a Russian with ties to military intelligence,  the same  Russian agency that intervened in the election to help Trump win.  Too complicated?

That is what reputable news outlets do.  When a mistake is made they apologize and correct it.  Why are they the enemy of the people?  By doing the responsible thing?  

All this stupid meme does is support the fact that the NYT is not fake news.  It is just news that snowflakes like Trump do not like bc it is confusing their lies they like to spread.

Nope.  Not going to move the needle one bit.  No amount of reason or proof will change the mind of any Trump supporter.  Especially a supporter who actually thinks M. Obama is a man.  You can't reason with that kind of loony.  However, I applaud your effort to summarize for the supposedly college educated Mjd33.  

Imho, this is a fairly big deal and is only a small part of what must be known to Mueller.

He has to hire these lawyers to rid himself of all the faux, BS lawsuits the Dems are throwing his way. Total waste of time. Nothing will come of it. 

PS....while Clinton was getting impeached he hired 140 lawyers. So 17 is truly a nothingburger amount. #winning
