          Incidentally, I love the file name that shows up: "open source timeline" to this. https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.190597/gov.uscourts.dcd.190597.315.16_1.pdf … As if this is parallel construction.

          And that Manafort let his WhatsApp back up to iCloud. Bad idea.

          WhatsApp doesn't backup to iCloud by default. Did Manafort turn backups on at some point and forget about it? LOL. https://faq.whatsapp.com/en/iphone/20888066/#backup …
