      312/ Oh, and the Kremlin agents who spoke to Trump's son at Trump Tower tried to get the translator to perjure himself about what happened at the meeting because nothing untoward at all had happened. Offered him money. Yes, this all sounds fine.

      313/ What "did not establish" means: Denman told Mueller that Gordon said he was on a call with Trump—on the RNC platform change—and Trump wanted the change. Gordon said he might've mentioned Trump told him he wanted the change. Equals: "did not establish" Trump wanted change.

      314/ Any layperson hearing the facts of the RNC platform change the Kremlin wanted—and that Kremlin agent Kilimnik bragged around Europe he'd negotiated it with Manafort—would say Trump *did* want the change and *expressed* it. Mueller says: "did not establish." See the standard?

      315/ The "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard is the right standard for a criminal trial. It's *not* the standard we'd really expect at an impeachment; it's *not* the standard we'd use to determine presidential fitness; it's *not* the standard that protects our national security.

      316/ Sessions' in-campaign bailiwick was Russia. This was a several-minute meeting with Russia's *ambassador* at the *RNC* in which he discussed *relations with Russia* after Kislyak asked him a question at a speech. If you think Sessions forgot—sorry, you're a rube. (No offense)pic.twitter.com/bC9MtsX3s7

      317/ Remember, Sessions was on the Armed Services Committee, and the press polled *every Committee member* to see if they'd had contact with the Russian ambassador—any contact at *all*—in 2016. How many did? Zero. Sessions *would have remembered*. (And had *several* contacts.)

      318/ Yes, this all sounds right: Gordon and Page chose to sit with Kislyak at a dinner and spoke for {*checks notes*} "3 to 5 minutes." You know... one of one those 3-to-5-minute-dinners you often see at swanky diplomatic events.

      321/ Mashburn and Clovis both say they thought Gordon was *contradicting* Trump—but Gordon and Sessions were on the "National Security Advisory Committee" (whose first meeting Gordon said included a directive on assistance to Ukraine—from Trump), and Mashburn and Clovis were not.

      322/ Wow—Russia's ambassador invited the #2 man on Trump's National Security Advisory Committee (Gordon) to come to his house on the same day Trump Jr. met with a Saudi/Emirati emissary offering illegal assistance to the Trump campaign (possibly connected to Russia *and* Israel).

          323/ Sessions and the Russian ambassador discussed Russia's aid to Iran in their early-September meeting. A key data-point—but to the conspiracy I explore in PROOF OF CONSPIRACY, not the Trump-Russia plotline most are already familiar with. (Something I'm putting a pin in, now.)

          324/ Amazing that Kislyak tried to get both Trump's #1 and #2 *official* national security guys back to his house. The good news for *him* is... ...he got Trump's #1 *unofficial* national security guy, Michael Flynn, to his house. In fact, he did that back in December of *2015*.

          325/ The Center for the National Interest's Dimitri Simes rears his head again—apparently trying to connect Sessions and Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the presidential transition. I'm telling you, Dimitri's making himself into a *star witness* with this performance.

          326/ Trump's Deputy Campaign Manager was secretly sending a Kremlin agent proprietary internal campaign polling data throughout the presidential campaign. At a time the Kremlin needed hard data to target its propaganda campaign. Just read those sentences a few times, I beg you.

          330/ This is what I mean about Mueller having different people research different issues and apparently never talk to each other: the Manafort section—on his contacts with Russia—reads like none of the other sections in the Report on what the campaign was doing with Russia exist.

          331/ Mueller reveals Manafort *lied* about whether he ever had polling data sent to Kilimnik—though Manafort *knew* Gates was telling Mueller that that's exactly what had happened. This clearly suggests that Manafort perceived his actions to be criminal—and, notably, *collusive*.

          335/ Manafort stayed in contact with everyone after being "fired," including Trump and Kushner. Used the term "our" to refer to the campaign. So he remained a campaign adviser up to and well after the election—confirming Trump wanted to stay on good terms with Manafort's friends.
